Dutch Boyd Has 4 Money Finishes in the 2014 WSOP, including One Bracelet Win<\/p><\/div>\n

The World Series of Poker tournament continues in Paradise, Nevada. So far, 36 events of the 67 events have completed. Several of the most famous professional card players have had good showings so far, but like most years over the past decade, most events have been won by relative no-name gamblers.<\/p>\n

Known players from former WSOP TV broadcasts like Daniel Negreanu, Dutch Boyd, and Josh Ariah have appeared at the final tables. Dutch Boyd added another bracelet to his resume. Meanwhile, Dominic Nitsche continued with his momentum, after becoming the first non-American to win the WSOP National Championship in Atlantic City last month.<\/p>\n

Event #13: No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball<\/strong><\/p>\n

Paul Volpe bested Daniel Negreanu in heads-up play to win the No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball tournament. Negreanu is one of the most famous and accomplished professional poker players of the 21st century. In his 17 years on the circuit, Negreanu has won 6 World Series of Poker bracelets, has cashed in 73 WSOP events, and has over $6 million in career winnings.<\/p>\n

Paul Volpe is no rookie, though. Though he had never won a WSOP bracelet prior to 2014, Volpe has finished in the money at 17 WSOP events. His first money finish was in 2008, so he is now a veteran player.<\/p>\n

Event #19: $1,500 No-Limit Holdem<\/strong><\/p>\n

To win the $1500 No-Limit Holdem event, Ted Gillis had to defeat 2nd-place finisher John Hennigan heads-up. John Hennigan is a two-time WSOP bracelet winner and has over $2 million in career WSOP winnings. Last year, Hennigan finished in the money at 6 World Series of Poker events, and has collected winnings in two events this year.<\/p>\n

This was only the second time Ted Gillis had won money at a World Series of Poker event. He finished in a 172nd place $1,500 buy-in no limit holdem event in 2013. Ted Gillis was not likely to be intimidated by the pressure of the moment, as he is a former U.S. Marine.<\/p>\n

Dominic Nitsche Wins Again<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dominic Nitsche won his second WSOP bracelet of the year when he won Event #21, a No-Limit Holdem event. The German-born Nitsche won the US National Championship at the Borgata in Atlantic City back in May 2014.<\/p>\n

In his post-tournament interview, Nitsche said Germans dominate international poker these days, and he predicted his countrymen would win at least 3 bracelets at the WSOP tournament. George Danzer won a razz competition, Event #18, which is considered by many to be one of the toughest card games to master.<\/p>\n
