2018 WSOP: Event #75: The Closer - $1,500 NLHE won by Joe Cada for $612,886, gets 4th Career Bracelet


Joe Cada may have finished only at 5th place in the Main Event of this year's WSOP (for $2,150,000), but that's probably okay with him because after a few days, he has gotten his fourth career bracelet when he took down Event #75: The Closer - $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em for $612,886!

It is indeed the perfect ending for Cada's summer. Cada, the Main Event champion in the 2009 WSOP, outlasted a field of 3,120 entries to claim the top prize, "I feel amazing. What a way to cap it off! I've been running good and deep in every tournament, and the tournaments I busted, I feel good about how I played. I haven't played many tournaments this summer, and I'm kind of upset that I didn't play more, but it feels good to close it out."

When asked if he would join the WSOP Europe this autumn, he said it's unlikely because he's still nowhere close to approaching Shaun Deeb in the POY (Player of the Year) race, "It just goes to show how good some summers end up and how good some of these players are."

Deeb also participated in the final day of this event but unfortunately busted out earlier in the game.

Event #75 was scheduled for 4 days (3 starting flights and all 331 survivors combined for Day 2 action). Cada started the final day with a healthy stack of 31 big blinds and he rose steadily. Even if the action was intense throughout the day, Cada rarely became at risk and never went all-in.
