The 2022 World Series of Poker has entered its final throes with only one tournament yet to crown its champion. Day 49 of the 2022 WSOP saw the Tournament of Champions shuffle up and deal, in addition to two more players getting their hands on some WSOP hardware.
Minh Nguyen came out on top in Event #85: $1,500 The Closer. This tournament required an extra day's play after Day 1b was disrupted by the rumors of an active shooter in Las Vegas. Day 3 saw 17 players return to their seats, including Nguyen, who had essentially bricked the series before this victory.
