WSOP 2021 | Friedman Is Champion 3 Years In A Row! | Interview

Phil Hellmuth attempted to make history with a 17th bracelet at the 2021 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Event #36: $10,000 Dealer's Choice Championship, but he was denied during heads-up play by Adam Friedman, who pulled off an incredible comeback along with one of the most impressive feats in WSOP history. Friedman took home $248,350 for the accomplishment, his fourth gold WSOP bracelet and the third consecutive time he's won this very same tournament. No player in history had ever gone back-to-back-to-back in the same WSOP event. The Event attracted 93 entrants, 14 of whom cashed. Friedman now has four gold bracelets and over $2 million in WSOP cashes.
