The winner Pekarek took his career live cashes past $500k with this victory and he will be excited to play more the rest of WSOP 2019.

Pekarek beat 6,151 entries to get here and he was excited about the win, saying, “It’s been an up-and-down journey. This was always the goal. Whenever I started playing poker I was like, I wanna win a bracelet and here I am. I just feel like this is a culmination of the past five years of just me learning more about myself. Self-awareness is everything in this game.”

‘BigRiskky’ proved that he still has it in him to win big, bagging the top prize of $144,957. He rated this the best victory of the three so far, saying, “Probably No. 1 because it’s been 12 years.
