It’s been a good summer for three-time bracelet winner Chance Kornuth. He kicked things off by nearly winning his fourth bracelet when he finished runner-up in the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Event #2: $25,000 High Roller 6-Max for $751,463.
He would go on to finish fourth in Event #29: $100,000 High Roller for $833,854, fifth in Event #40: $250,000 Super High Roller for $1,202,318, and fourth in Online Event #8: $3,200 High Roller for $108,443. Thus far he’s cashed eight WSOP events for $2,903,050.
He’s also been busy playing other tournaments on the Las Vegas Strip, including finishing 81st in the $3,500 BetMGM Championship for $8,733. Well, earlier this week on his birthday, Kornuth finally got a first-place victory. He navigated his way through a field of 3,006 entrants in the Wynn Summer Classic $2,200 Mystery Bounty, and along the way claimed 11 bounties for a total payday of $537,322.

James Calderaro Wins $5,000 Seniors High Roller
A new event on the Wynn Summer Classic schedule was the $5,000 Seniors High Roller, which ran from June 19-20. The tournament attracted 155 runners, which nearly tripled the $250,000 guarantee by creating a $728,500 prize pool.
That was paid out to the top 17 finishers, and among those to cash but fall short of the final table were Chris Bell (10th – $16,610), Ira Friedman (12th – $14,570), and Ross Novak (16th – $11,532), just to name a few.
The final table had some familiar faces in Farzad Bonyadi (5th – $41,379) and Dan Shak (3rd – $81,009), but ultimately it was James Calderaro defeating Luke Graham in heads-up play to win the tournament for $211,666.
