First the $1,500 Dealers Choice, then the $1,500 Mixed PLO8 and now, its the $2,500 Mixed Triple Draw Lowball (2-7, A-5, Badugi). Three bracelets in three weeks, all in fields with more than 400 entries. That’s the historic heater Benny Glaser finds himself on at the 2025 World Series of Poker, as he became just the eighth player in WSOP history to win three gold bracelets in a single summer.
Glaser’s latest triumph came in another mixed game format, where he topped a 463-entry field and defeated Schuyler Thornton heads-up to collect $208,552 and bracelet number eight.
By joining the exclusive “three-in-a-summer” club, Glaser now stands alongside the likes of Scott Seiver (2024), Jeff Lisandro (2009), Phil Ivey (2002), 2025 Poker Hall of Fame finalist Ted Forrest (1993), Phil Hellmuth (1993), and Puggy Pearson (1973).
At just 36 years old, Glaser has now racked up eight WSOP bracelets in a ten-year span, trailing only six legends on the all-time list: Johnny Moss (9), Erik Seidel (10), Johnny Chan (10), Doyle Brunson (10), Ivey (11), and Hellmuth (17).

“In a way it’s kind of funny that it’s happening in the lower stakes buy-ins where the fields area bigger as opposed to the 10k’s which are normally more winnable. Like the second bracelet had 1,239 runners. It’s honestly crazy. Such a grind, such a battle.”
Today’s victory puts Glaser firmly on top of the race for WSOP Player of the year and Glaser confirmed that he will be going very hard for the accolade. Glaser, who is a candidate for being the most dominant player in the last decade of the WSOP, commented on the speculation that he may one day surpass Hellmuth for the all-time bracelet record.
“There’s getting to be thoughts of it. There’s been talk of it lately, sort of understandably. I’m not necessarily setting my goal on that. It would be a cool thing. I’m still just going to try to keep showing up every summer and keep playing my best. He’s still going to keep doing the same, so he’s definitely going to be a very tough man to catch, but it would be a cool race.”

The tournaments final day started with 15 hopefuls taking their seats at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. With several short-stacks to start there were a flurry of eliminations to start the day with Chino Rheem, Yuval Bronshtein and Johannes Becker among the early casualties as the field was quickly whittled down.
Actor James Woods on the final table bubble after a critical mistake. Woods stood pat with a nine-eight thinking that he was playing 2-7 Triple Draw, only to realize too late that he was actually playing A-5. That hand left Woods severely short-stacked and he was out on the final table bubble soon after.
Glaser came into the final table with the second-largest stack, but six of the seven players were very close in chips and it took over two hours for any eliminations to occur. Finally Chris Klodnicki was on the wrong side of a brutal cooler after his pat six-low in A-5 Triple Draw was cracked by George Alexander, who drew perfect at the end to make a wheel. The next three eliminations came rapid-fire over the next three hands, with David "Bakes" Baker, start-of-day chip leader Michael Balan and Mark Klecan hitting the rail in sixth, fifth and fourth respectively.
Following Klecan's elimination, the final three players battled for over four hours, with the chip lead being traded between Alexander and Thornton several times. Glaser was left short-stacked several times during this period, but was consistently able to reset and battle back into contention.
"I needed some of those breaks" Glaser said of the three-handed battle. "Twice I doubled up Schuyler, when he essentially got lucky all-in. So I was king of trying to use the breaks to reset, just trying to breathe and bring myself back to the situation to keep battling on. But it was a real tough one."
The turning point saw Glaser leap over Alexander into second place after getting him to fold in a hand of A-5. Soon after, Glaser hit a five-outer in Badugi to send Alexander to the rail and come into heads-up play with a very slight lead over Thornton. That lead quickly evaporated, with Thornton taking control of the early parts of heads-up play to bring himself to a 2:1 chip lead over Glaser.
Glaser took the lead back after picking off a bluff from Thornton with an eight-seven low and from there he took his foot off the gas, winning several pots without showdown to leave Thornton short. Thornton managed to double through Glaser once, but soon after Thornton was left with crumbs after making a jack-low in A-5 only to lose to Glaser's eight-low. Thornton was left with under one big bet and couldn't recover. A few hands later Thornton's pat-ten was outdrawn when Glaser fittingly made #3 for his third bracelet of the series.
