New Jersey's Ryan Torgersen Discusses Incredible Bracelet Redemption
Ryan Torgersen
Over the course of two days on July 9th and 10th, the poker world witnessed New Jersey's Ryan "im.sorry" Torgersen accomplish a truly incredible feat. First, he navigated his way through a 1,026-entry field in Event #9: $1,000 NLH 6-Max only to finish runner-up to Ron "MacDaddy15" McMillen, good for $116,379 prize money.
A day later in Event #10: $600 Monster Stack, Torgersen was back at it and topped a 2,074-entry field to win that tournament for $172,362 and a gold bracelet. In a 24-hour period, he won a $288,741 in prize money. He didn't stop there as he also finished in third place in Event #23: $500 NLH Knockout for $41,243.
Little was known about poker's latest breakout star, who was awarded Performance of the Week right here on PokerNews. Fortunately, he found time in between his online grind to chat with PokerNews.

Welcome to Event #26: $500 No-Limit Hold'em Grande Finale
The final week of the 2020 Online World Series of Poker on WSOP.com continues today with [/b] Event #26: $500 No-Limit Hold'em Grande Finale[/B] at 3:00 p.m. PDT.
The Grande Finale features 15-minute blind levels and the $500 buy-in gives players 15,000 chips to play with.
The tournament allows players to re-enter three times with each re-entry lasting only 30 seconds, so players will need to make sure they have enough funds in their WSOP.com account before the tournament starts if they plan on re-entering.
Late registration and the re-entry option will be open for the first 3 hours and 45 minutes of play. Tournament tickets are not usable for re-entry. This is a single day event meaning the entire tournament will be played out online and the winner will take home a WSOP Gold Bracelet.
This is the twenty-sixth of 85 bracelet events being held on WSOP.com (31 events – one each day for the month of July) and GG Poker (holding the remaining 54 events).
