Next Fedor? This German 22-Year-Old is Taking the 2023 WSOP by Sturm

Few poker players ever find themselves taking home seven-figure tournament scores, and hardly any get to experience multiple million-dollar scores in the same week.

Germany's Leon Sturm is one of them as the 22-year-old German prodigy won Event #23: $50,000 High Roller at the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) for $1,546,024 this week just days after taking down GGPoker's Super MILLION$ $10,000 buy-in Super High Roller for $1,518,400.
