Bryce Yockey Wins Third WSOP Bracelet in $10k Event
Yockey dominates the 2026 Dealer's Choice final table, cementing his mixed-game elite status.
Bryce Yockey captured his third World Series of Poker bracelet this week, dominating the final table of the $10,000 Dealer's Choice event at the 2026 WSOP, according to PokerNews.
Why It Matters
The $10,000 Dealer's Choice is one of the WSOP's most technically demanding events, requiring mastery across multiple poker variants rather than a single game — making a final-table run, let alone a win, a credible signal of all-around elite skill. Yockey's third bracelet places him among a select group of players with multiple open-face and mixed-game titles, reinforcing his standing as a high-stakes mixed-game specialist. For serious poker bettors and fantasy poker participants, a three-bracelet résumé at this buy-in level marks Yockey as a consistent threat in any mixed-format event. As of June 2026, the WSOP is mid-series, meaning the field of recognized bracelet winners continues to grow — shifting the competitive landscape weekly.
Context
Yockey's previous two bracelets established him as a fixture in the mixed-game community rather than a no-limit hold'em specialist, a distinction that carries weight at the WSOP where Dealer's Choice fields attract a narrow pool of technically proficient players. The $10,000 buy-in ensures the field is small and the competition concentrated, making repeat success statistically improbable without genuine skill edge.
What's Next
Yockey will have the opportunity to add a fourth bracelet as the 2026 WSOP schedule continues through the summer. Watch for his entries in remaining high-stakes mixed-game events, where his track record makes him a legitimate contender worth tracking in any poker prop or fantasy market. Gambling involves risk; past results do not guarantee future outcomes.
