Alan Goehring WSOP Bracelet

It has been a few days since we updated you on the latest winners at the 2020 WSOP Online. Over the last few days, we had a couple of major notables take down WSOP gold.

For starters, the 1999 WSOP Main Event runner-up Alan Goehring has finally won his first WSOP bracelet. Meanwhile, Ron McMillen decided to play online poker for the first time recently and managed to win a WSOP bracelet in his first try. The runner-up in that event, Ryan Torgenson, turned around and won his own bracelet a day later.

Alan Goehring Wins Event #8

Alan “GladiusIII” Goehring is no stranger to the poker world and one of the most accomplished old school players without a bracelet. The two-time World Poker Tour Champion finished runner-up to Noel Furlong at the 1999 WSOP Main Event but has never managed to win his own bracelet. That is until now.

Goehring won Event #8 of the WSOP Online, the $500 NLH Freezeout this past Wednesday. He topped a field of 1,479 players to take the bracelet and $119k in prize money. He outlasted a final table that included Scott Davies, Randy Ohel, and Ross Gottlieb.

Ron McMillen Wins Event #9

Ron McMillen is well known in the live poker arena. A fixture of the Heartland Poker Tour, the 70-year-old had never played online poker until this past Thursday. His first outing was a successful one as he won Event #9, the $1,000 NL Hold’em Six-Max for his first bracelet and $188,214.

McMillen overcame a field of 1026 runners. Playing at “MacDaddy15,” McMillen defeated Ryan “Im.Sorry” Torgersen to become one of the oldest open field bracelet winners in history.

Ryan Torgerson Wins Event #10

After finishing runner-up in Event #9, many would understand if Torgerson faltered in his next few events. Not satisfied with second place, Torgerson bounced right back to win Event #10, the $600 NLH MonsterStack.

Torgerson overcame a field of 1,505 players to take the title and $172,361. Old school pro Sam Grizzle made the final table, finishing third. Brandon “Omni27” Lenn finished runner-up.

Raman Afanasenka Wins Event #11

Raman “Acrogum” Afanasenka took down Event #11, the $500 NL Hold’em Turbo Deepstack 6-Handed event to become the first non-American to win a bracelet in this online series. The native of Balarus outlasted a field of 1,081 runners to take the title and $128,601.

The final table was a stacked one, including Erica Lindgren, David Prociak, Brett Apter and Chance Kornuth. Kornuth won an online bracelet in 2018 and fell short of winning his second one, falling in second place.

Ryan Depaulo Wins Event #12 From Parking Lot

Ryan “joeyisamush” Depaulo proved that you can play online poker from anywhere, taking down Event #12, the $500 The Big 500 Event from a Whole Foods parking lot in New Jersey. Depaulo is best known as a poker vlogger but now is a WSOP champion.

Depaulo outlasted a field of 1,624 and a final table that included Shannon Shorr and Jack “EarlGrey” Salter. In addition to the bracelet, Depaulo won $159,563 and will surely inspire a new generation of parking lot bracelet winners.

Michael Lech Wins Event #13

Michael “miguelfiesta” Lech is an 8-time WSOP Circuit ring winner but had never won a WSOP bracelet until Monday. He took down Event #13, the $1,500 NL Hold’em High Roller Freezeout for his first title and $164,249.

Lech defeated a tough field of 649 players. Connor Drinan made the final table but fell in sixth place. Ultimately, it was Lech facing William “SlaweelRyam” Romaine for the title with Lech coming out on top.

Lech is a true global grinder, winning titles in five different countries. He can now finally call himself a WSOP bracelet winner.
