Daniel Vampan is a poker player hailing from California, United States, who is best known for winning Event #25: $3,000 Limit Hold'em 6-Handed at the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP).
Vampan was born in California and used to watch his father play Limit Hold'em before focusing his attention on being a Limit Hold'em cash game player. Until the 2024 WSOP, poker had taken a backseat because Vampan and his friend were busy developing a business idea in the agricultural sector, but he took some time off to play in the $3,000 Limit Hold'em event eventually winning it for his first WSOP bracelet and $148,635 in prize money.
Vampan had 12 live WSOP cashes on his resume before his bracelet victory, including two in-the-money finishes in the $10,000 buy-in Main Event. He finished 291st for $40,900 in 2022 before navigating his way to an impressive 24th place finish in 2023, a result that earned him a career-best $345,000.
