This was the second-largest score yet for Vampan, trailing only the $345,000 he earned as the 24th-place finisher in last year’s main event. He now has more than $718,000 in career tournament earnings to his name.
Vampan also earned 612 Card Player Player of the Year points for the win. This was his first POY-qualified score of 2024.
The top 38 finishers cashed in this event, with big names like David ‘ODB’ Baker (29th), Phil Hellmuth (23rd), Alex Keating (11th), Daniel Idema (10th), and Roland Israelashvili (5th) running deep.
