One of the world's top high-stakes players is now a World Series of Poker bracelet winner. Seth Davies emerged victorious in Event #46: $250,000 Super High Roller to win WSOP gold and capture the $4,752,551 first-place prize. The largest of his career.
Entering this tournament, Davies was 19th on the All-Time Money List, according to The Hendon Mob. This victory thrusts his lifetime career earnings to more than $44,610,000, which puts him now 16th on the All-Time Money List behind Steve O'Dwyer and ahead of Daniel Dvoress. Davies now sits 12th on the United States All-Time Money List, and his career resume includes eight scores of $1,000,000 or more. Along with his maiden WSOP bracelet, he is a WPT champion, Triton Poker Series winner, and two-time Super High Roller Bowl champion.
The 63-entrant field in the largest buy-in tournament held in 2025 so far created a prize pool of $15,513,750. Late on Day 2, one of the sickest hands of the WSOP played out on the stone bubble when David Peters check-raised the river with the worst hand against Martin Kabrhel, who folded flopped trips. Andrew Lichtenberger was eliminated shortly after on the money bubble as Biao Ding and Daniel Negreanu were eliminated in the money before play concluded for the night.
After ninety minutes of play, the final eight moved to the PokerGO livestreamed final table, and Ben Tollerene would be the first to fall when his pocket kings ran into Alex Foxen's pocket kings. Kabrhel was the next to be eliminated when he connected with bottom pair, but Chris Brewer had top pair and held to bust Kabrhel. Peters was all-in from the small blind with king-seven suited against the ace-six of Foxen. Both players connected with a pair on the flop, but Foxen's top pair held to trim the final table to five.
Brewer began the day as the short stack, but laddered up to fifth before a huge bad beat saw him eliminated when Foxen spiked his two-outer. Bryn Kenney was then all-in with ace-queen against Davies' pocket kings, and when no ace fell, Davies moved into the chip lead. Boivin began sliding down the leaderboard before his final hand saw him all-in with king-queen suited agains the ace-seven of Foxen. The board bricked out and Foxen held a slender lead against Davies to begin heads-up play.
On the first hand, Davies three-bet shoved all-in with ace-jack and Foxen called with ace-queen. Davies flopped a jack and doubled into an overwhelming chip lead of 89.2 million to 5.3 million. On the next hand, Foxen was all-in with king-five and Davies tabled his pocket aces. Foxen flopped top pair, turned two pair, but was then counterfitted and eliminated in second place as Davies was awarded his first WSOP bracelet.
