After nearly six hours of play, the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP®) Main Event Final Table is down to its last three players seeking to etch their name in poker history as the winner of the largest Main Event of all time. Adam Walton, Steven Jones, and Daniel Weinman will take to the felt one last time and play until a new champion is crowned.

The newly-minted 2023 World Champion will take home $12,100,000 in winnings and the Main Event bracelet, featuring approximately 500 grams of 10-karat yellow gold, 2,352 various precious gemstones, including 42 carats of round genuine diamonds, 425 black and red stones to accentuate the suits and a removable golden poker chip that sits in the center of the bracelet.
