The 2015 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event Champion has three gold charms and only two wrists after winning Event #14: $3,200 No Limit Hold’em High Roller during the 2020 WSOP Online Series.
It’s a beautiful problem to have.
When you have waded through 6,420 players to win the most prestigious poker tournament in the world, everything else must feel like Boring Sponge on an oyster, but McKeehen would have enjoyed this one.
The event attracted 496-entrants, and McKeehen picked up $352,985 for the win after beating Frank ‘thewholefunk’ Funaro in heads-up action. Roland ‘prngls12’ Israelashvili finished third. The man with the unenviable claim of making the most WSOP cashes (rings/bracelets) without winning a bracelet, had only ventured this far once before, finishing third in the 2013 Little One for One Drop event.
Here are the results.

Guy ‘Philaak’ Dunlap Wins Event #15: $1,000 PLO 8-Max High Roller
Guy ‘Philaak’ Dunlap took down the Pot Limit Omaha (PLO) High Roller. The $1,000 investment was considerably lower than the $3,200 McKeehen paid to secure his payday, but $133,780 will do nicely.
Dunlap had previously finished in the money in nine live WSOP bracelet events before winning this one. The deepest he had ever mined came in 2013, ending 35/3164 in a $1,000 No Limit Hold’em event.
Bracelet winners Matt ‘jacksup’ Matris and Anthony ‘hehe’ Zinno also made the final table, as you can see, below.
