Steve Jelinek Wins WSOP Gold Bracelet in Event 41
British Player Scoops Victory in Pot-Limit Omaha High-Low Split.
Steve Jelinek was the winner of the $1,500 buy-in Pot-Limit Omaha High-Low Split championship at the 2010 World Series of Poker. This marked his first career WSOP gold bracelet victory, following three previous cashes here in Las Vegas. Jelinek earned a breakthrough victory and collected $245,871 in prize money.
Jelinek is from Birmingham, UK. He became the fifth British player to win a gold bracelet this year, following previous victories by Praz Bansi, James Dempsey, Richard Ashby, and Mike Ellis. With Jelinek’s win, players from Great Britain have won more gold bracelets in 2010 than any other nation within a single year at the WSOP, other than the host nation United States.
The runner up was John Gottlieb, from Houston, TX. The second-place consolation prize in this tournament amounted to a very respectable $151,884.
The top 81 finishers collected prize money. Former WSOP gold bracelet finishers who cashed in this event included – Phil Hellmuth (7th), Barry Greenstein (12th), Richard Austin (22nd), Mike Matusow (49th), and Chris “Jesus” Ferguson (75th).
