WSOP Round-Up: Gold For Benny Glaser & Andrey Zaichenko

The World Series of Poker produces a second summer bracelet for Benny Glaser, a second Russian bracelet of the summer courtesy of Andrey Zaichenko, and Jason Mercier still hunting for bracelet #3 of the summer with another deep run.

Benny Glaser has won the bracelet and $407,194 first prize in Event #32: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Low Split-8 or Better, meaning the lad from the UK has won back-to-back Omaha Hi-Low Split 8 or Better events.

Glaser has become the third player in the series able to put a bracelet on each wrist following in the footsteps of Jason Mercier and Ian Johns. It also means Glaser is right on the coattails of Mercier in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Player of the Year (POY) race.

The 163 entrants make it one of the smallest fields of the WSOP, but none of that will bother Glaser. He has now won three bracelets in two years, making him one of the most in-form players on the WSOP circuit.
