João Vieira Outlasts Lander Lijo to Win Second WSOP Bracelet ($1,384,415)

The 2022 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Event #83: $50,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold'em was full of big names playing for big money and the storied gold bracelet.

At the end of two days and a gruelling final table battle, there could be only one winner: Portugal's João Vieira.

Vieira outlasted a field of 107 entries and needed to come from behind multiple times to win his second bracelet and a career-high score of $1,384,415.

Vieira's previous best score was back in July 2019, when he took down $758,011, winning his first bracelet in Event #70: $5,000 No Limit Hold'em - 6-Handed.
