When Event 29 finished, one player sat holding the WSOP gold bracelet, and he was no stranger to it. Greg Mueller won the $10K HORSE Championship and more than $425K, ten years after he won his first two bracelets in 2009.
Mueller hasn’t been playing as much as in the past, admitting that he doesn’t study the game as much as he works to maintain his physical and mental health. “When I’m in Canada, I don’t play one hand of poker,” he commented. “I do my thing: work out, play hockey three times a week, watch a ton of sports.”
When he returned to the WSOP this year, he found that he still had what it took to win, and he described it as “a good attitude, a fortune of good luck, and good friends around.”

Over in Event 31, the man called the “silent assassin” by his opponents won his first WSOP gold. Thomas Cazayous is a French poker pro living in the UK, and the 24-year-old was nothing if not confident in his abilities. “I don’t want to say I think I was the best,” he said, “but I felt pretty sure what I had to do.”
