Message: [QUOTE="Shells, post: 6987638, member: 75546"] It has taken a little while, a big dream and a lot of patience for American Jonathan Tamayo to win the 2024 World Series of Poker Main Event! Jonathan is a 4-time WSOP Circuit ring winner so he is no stranger to winning. However, this will likely be his most memorable finish ever as he outlasted over 10,000 players and took home the biggest trophy and $10 Million! This is not Jonathan's first run at the Main Event or his first Main Event cash. Fifteen years ago, Tamayo finished the Main Event in 21st, good for $352,832 and made a deep run in 2015 when he finished 78th. He is a 4-time WSOP Circuit ring winner, so he is no stranger to winning. His friend and roommate, the 2015 Main Event winner, was on the rail, too. [B][I]“Not real life. My roommate’s picture is right there from 2015. We both have banners now. What in the world just happened,” Tamayo said afterwards. “Leading up to it, Joe was just like, play your game. I realized you’re never going to play perfect poker, and weird things happen, and it’s just unreal.”[/I][/B] Jordan Griff, of the USA, wins $6 million for his deep run, while Niklas Astedt takes $4 million home to Sweden.
