The 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) is officially over, some 51 days after the first of 99 live bracelet-awarding events shuffled up and dealt at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. The series has had it all, from multiple bracelet winners, old school heroes becoming champions again, and a raft of non-stop poker action from start to finish.

July 17 was the 51st day of this amazing series, the day that the final five WSOP events crowned their champions and brought the curtain down on another summer of poker.

Event #81: $10,000 WSOP Main Event World Championship

The first task of Day 51 was to crown poker's world champion. Niklas Astedt, Jordan Griff, and Jonathan Tamayo returned to the table having locked in $4 million but knowing they were only two eliminations away from becoming the 2024 WSOP Main Event champion and winning $10 million.

Astedt was the first of the trio to bow out before Tamayo defeated Griff heads-up to immortalize himself in poker's history book.

Event #93: $777 Lucky 7's No-Limit Hold'em

Michael Liang triumphed in Event #93: $777 Lucky 7's No-Limit Hold'em, overturning a nine-to-one chip deficit to defeat Duc Nguyen. Liang, who had previously finished second, third, and fifth in bracelet events, finally got the job done and his hands on $777,777 and his first WSOP bracelet.

With this victory, Liang's lifetime earnings from live poker tournaments swelled to almost $3.2 million.

Event #97: $3,000 6-Handed Pot-Limit Omaha

Alex Livingston became a two-time bracelet winner after beating Francisco Benitez heads-up in Event #97: $3,000 6-Handed Pot-Limit Omaha. Livingston had racked up 11 cashes before this event, but had fallen short of a final table appearance. Having defeated Uruguay's Benitez and captured the $390,621 top prize, Livingston said the victory was a summer saver for the Canadian.

This was Livingston's third recorded victory. His first was in the $1,500 Seven Card Stud event at the 2022 WSOP, and his second came in a $25,000 10-Game Championship at the 2024 PokerGO Tour Mixed Games festival.

Event #98: $1,500 The Closer

Event #98: $1,500 The Closer was the penultimate live bracelet-awarding event of the 2024 WSOP, and Taiwan's Ching Da Wu claimed its bracelet. Da Wu outlasted 3,214 opponents on his way to winning his first bracelet and $525,500 in prize money.

Da Wu defeated Italy's Mario Colavita to become only the fourth Taiwanese player to strike gold at a WSOP. Despite his success in this event, Da Wu plans to remain a software engineer in California and continue playing poker recreationally.

Event #99: $1,000 Super Turbo No-Limit Hold'em

Some 1,544 hopefuls flicked in $1,000 for the final chance to win some 2024 WSOP hardware in Event #99: $1,000 Super Turbo No-Limit Hold'em. The 20-minute levels and relatively shallow starting stacks, compared to other events, meant those 1,544 entrants were reduced to only one in a single day.

Lithuania's Aneris Adomkevicius was the sole survivor in this event. He resigned two-time WSOP Main Event ninth-place finisher Mark Newhouse to a runner-up finish when his pocket sixes held against jack-eight.

Adomkevicius netted $201,355 and his first gold bracelet.

That's a Wrap!
