Nick Schulman Could Achieve Rare Milestone at WSOP Final Table
Limits: 60,000-120,000
Nick Schulman could become just the eighth player in history to reach the nine-bracelet milestone, but the second in the past two days.
The Poker Hall of Famer and popular commentator held the chip lead at the final table in the $10,000 Limit 2-7 Championship at the time of publishing. He could leave Paris Las Vegas on Friday with his second bracelet of the summer and his ninth ever, which would put him in an exclusive club — a club that Benny Glaser joined one day ago.
Glaser, who won three bracelets last year but still didn't win WSOP Player of the Year, took down the prestigious $50,000 Poker Players Championship for $1,343,764. At age 37, he became the second-youngest player ever to rack up nine bracelets. Schulman could do it at age 41. Phil Ivey is the youngest, having done it at age 36 in 2013. Phil Hellmuth won his ninth at age 38 in 2003.
