Barber Cuts Out $10,000 H.O.R.S.E Championship Win
Andrew Barber took down the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E Championship Friday night, winning his first WSOP bracelet and $517,766.
Barber, who has had tons of success grinding the WSOP Circuit to the tune of 17 cashes and $80,375 in earnings, beat Viacheslav Zhukov heads up and a final nine that included legends of the game like Joe Hachem (5th), Frank Kassela (6th), Scotty Nguyen (7th) and Eli Elezra (9th).
The win marked Barber's 13th cash at the WSOP but was by far and away the biggest of a career that previously included $75,736 in WSOP earnings and $240,097 overall.
"It was a tough lineup for sure, but I feel Like I can play with anybody in at least a couple of these games and in H.O.R.S.E. that's all that you need," Barber said.
