It hasn’t been a kind level for several past champions from around the world.
Joe Kuether has 15 tournaments wins in four different countries including two WSOP Circuit rings. David Diaz is the proud owner of a WSOP bracelet and $1.4 million in career earnings. Ryan Van Sanford has a WSOP-C ring, WPT title, and one Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open win to his credit. Jacob Bazeley has nearly $2 million in career earnings along with his WSOP-C ring.
Another thing they all have in common today is that they’ll be on the outside looking in at the rest of the Championship players
