Mike Holtz came up a bit short of his second bracelet on Wednesday, but the Las Vegas online poker crusher appears to be destined for his second major online poker award in three years.
Those who play on WSOP.com know of Holtz under his screen name "BrockLesnar," a tribute to former WWE pro wrestling legend Brock Lesnar. Over the years, he's been one of the poker site's top tournament performers, so much so that he won Player of the Year in 2021.
As of mid-June, he's on pace to win the award again in 2023 even though there's still plenty of play remaining.
