Das erste Bracelet der World Series of Poker (WSOP) 2023 im Horseshoe & Paris Las Vegas ist vergeben. Beim $500 Casino Employees NLH Event setzte sich Peter Thai durch und kassierte $75.535 für sein erste Goldarmband.
Traditionell waren es sehr viele US-Amerikaner beim Casino-Angestellten Event. Mit noch 89 der 1.015 Teilnehmer war es angeführt von Bensom Tam ins Finale gegangen. Als Deutscher wurde Kevin Gattes geführt, der short aber dann auch gleich mit Rang 88 für $1.047 Feierabend hatte. Das übrige Feld war zu 99 % amerikanisch und auch am Final Table war der Kanadier Sean Balfour schon die Ausnahme.
Der anfängliche Chipleader Benson Tam schaffte es an den Final Table, letztlich musste er sich aber mit Rang 5 begnügen. Short stellte er mit 
all-in, nach ihm ging Bruce Jiang mit Queens all-in und Peter Thai fand die Kings zum Call. Das Board änderte nichts, Tam nahm Rang 5, Jiang Rang 4 und Thai war massiver Chipleader.
und ein König auf dem Flop genügten Thai, um Paul Blanchette mit 
hinterher zu schicken und auch im Heads-up fackelte er nicht lange. Mit 
traf er das Board 
optimal, James Urbanic blieb mit 
auf der Strecke und Peter Thai konnte über das Barcelet jubeln.
