This is the prize everyone’s chasing in Las Vegas this summer. Sure, we know it's all about the money, but a WSOP bracelet is poker’s ultimate trophy. And let’s be honest – the only players who say they don’t care about winning one are the ones who already have one.
One bracelet has already been awarded in the $500 Industry Employees event, leaving 98 more on the line — plus a special edition for the Main Event champion.
Phovieng Keokham claimed the first bracelet of the summer in Las Vegas and told us, "I’ve played the series every year for 20+ years, but this is my biggest cash." He took home $64,369, and a WSOP bracelet is a big bonus on top.

The 2025 bracelet is a more intricate design than the plainer-looking 2024 version. You can see the 2025 and 2024 bracelet designs pictured below — one above, one below. We know which one we prefer.
2025 WSOP Bracelet
We wouldn't say no, obviously, but the 2024 WSOP bracelet is much plainer.The next bracelet will be awarded on Friday in the $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better, followed by a glut on Saturday when three more will be handed out: the $5K NLH, $5K PLO, and $1,500 Seven Card Stud.
The first big buy-in will be settled on Sunday when the $25,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em Championship plays out to a winner.
