2018 WSOP: Event #21: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em MILLIONAIRE MAKER won by Arne Kern for $1.1 Million
The one who ended up with the lion's share was given to Arne Kern of Germany, who earned his first-ever WSOP gold bracelet and the sweet pot of $1,173,223. A 26-year-old student, Kern has won the biggest score of his career as a poker player, and this win amount is actually 40 times bigger than any other live tourney cash he had previously made.
With 17 players remaining, Kern entered the final day of the event as 11th in chip position. The humongous field included some recognizable names in poker who made it to day 4 of the event including the likes of 2017 Triton Super High Roller Series main event champ Manig Loeser, 2013 WSOP Circuit $365 NLHE Event #6 champion Ralph Massey, two-time bracelet winner Barny Boatman, and 2015 WSOP $3K 6-max NLHE champion Justin Liberto.
The final heads-up match saw Sam Razavi versus Arne Kern, and in the end the title and the pot went to Kern as he made a flush draw.
