After Qualifying at the 11th Hour, Ryan Messick Runs Deep in Final WSOP Event

Within two hours of winning his first World Series of Poker bracelet in an online event in Pennsylvania on July 18, Ryan Messick was headed to the airport after booking a last-minute flight to Las Vegas.

By winning the $500 buy-in tournament, advertised as the "Summer Saver," Messick became one of the final players to qualify for the WSOP Tournament of Champions, a million-dollar freeroll exclusive to the 88 bracelet winners and hundreds of Circuit ring winners from the 2022 WSOP Circuit season.
