David Simon Emerges Victorious in Battle of Davids to Win Maiden Bracelet in $1,500 Mixed No-Limit Hold'em/Pot-Limit Omaha

David Simon

Prior to today, David Simon had six cashes in the 2023 World Series of Poker. His seventh comes with an incredible bonus - the title of WSOP bracelet winner. Simon outlasted a field of 2,076 entrants, four days of play, and a grueling heads-up battle against bracelet winner David Prociak to win $410,659 and his maiden bracelet in Event #62: $1,500 Mixed No-Limit Hold'em/Pot-Limit Omaha.

Simon��s best cash prior to winning this event was $18,158, coming from 2019. "I've played with a lot of people who have always been super positive with me and just been like, 'It's gonna happen for you at some point,'" said Simon. "I don't know if I myself really believed that, but during this event in particular I just felt incredibly calm and locked in."

The new champion, who lives on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, is cognizant of the effect this win has on his poker career. "I think I've just gained so much confidence throughout this tournament and felt like I could actually hang in this event," said Simon.

"Can't Stop Kopp!" William Kopp Wins Event #66: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha 8 or Better ($259,549)

William Kopp

On Friday night, William Kopp bested a 1,125-player field and defeated Michael Rodrigues heads up in a one-sided match to claim his first World Series of Poker (WSOP) gold bracelet and the $259,549 first-place prize in Event #66: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better.

The Ohio native added to his $1 million in career-tournament earnings and joined his sister, Katie Kopp, who won the 2022 Casino Employees Event, as a WSOP bracelet winner. Today's victory marks Kopp's eighth cash of the series and his biggest cash to date.

"It feels really good, especially since my best friend won a bracelet this year and my sister won one last year," Kopp said when asked how he felt about his victory.

Kopp attributes part of his success to having a strong poker family.

"When we were growing up we were always about poker. We're pretty close...me, my sister, and my mom. We all talk poker and help make each other better," Kopp said.

Norbert Szecsi

Day 3 has concluded for Event #65: $5,000 6-Handed No-Limited Hold'em at the 2023 World Series of Poker. Hungarian Norbert Szecsi bagged the chip lead and will be looking to capture his third WSOP gold bracelet and first live bracelet since 2013. Szecsi was very short-stacked on Day 2 as the bubble approached after being on the receiving end of a bad beat. Despite the setback he managed to start Day 3 with one of the bigger stacks in the field before firmly establishing himself as the chip leader after winning a pivotal pot against Pedro Garagnani.

Day 2 Chip Leader Vitor Dzivielevski remains in contention heading into the final table. Dzivielevski had a dominant run in the first half of Day 3, at one point winning a colossal pot with pocket queens to become the commanding chip leader at the time for several levels. Vitor's brother Yuri Dzivielevski already won a bracelet earlier in this series and Vitor will be looking to follow suit by capturing his first ever WSOP gold bracelet in this event.

Alex Foxen

Among one of the most elite and star-studded fields on the World Series of Poker calender, Alex Foxen��s star shone the brightest on Day 1 of Event #71: $50,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller.

The poker superstar and WSOP bracelet winner was spotted with more than 1,000,000 early on and never stopped accumulating chips. Foxen bagged up a massive stack of 2,868,000, far and away the largest among the 70 surviving players.

Jesse Lonis is one of the players looking up at Foxen on the leaderboard. Lonis doubled up against Jeremy Ausmus after a more than three-minute tank, then won a massive pot against John Riordan on his way to 1,460,000.

The third time was the charm for Ausmus on Day 1. The 2021 champion of this event had to reenter twice, but built up his stack to 1,291,000 on his third bullet. Defending champion Robert Cowen (1,187,000), Dylan Weisman (1,170,000), and Shaun Deeb (1,014,000) are also in the million-chip club.
