The 2022 World Series of Poker (WSOP) continued on June 7, Day 8 of the festival, and it was yet another day crammed full of action and suspense. By the time the last person out of Bally's and Paris Las Vegas turned out the lights, there were two new champions and five other events edging towards crowning their winners.
Henry Acain triumphed in Event #5: $500 The Housewarming and walked away with his first WSOP bracelet in addition to an impressive $701,215 in cash. Former tennis pro turned poker pro Raj Vohra won Event #11: $600 No-Limit Hold'em Deepstack, which awarded Vohra his first piece of WSOP hardware plus $335,886 in prize money.
