The international leg of the 2020 World Series of Poker Main Event has reached its final table and that takes place at the King’s Resort in Rozvadov, Czech Republic on December 16. PokerNews is previewing each of the nine lucky finalists. We've already covered the three shortest stacks, and yesterday we covered the middle stacks, but today we take a look at the top three as we head into the final table.
Brunno Botteon - Brazil - 10,317,743 (52 big blinds)
Brunno Botteon is no stranger to the WSOP on GGPoker, cashing 15 times during the WSOP Online between July and September. His best result came when he finished second to Fedor Holz in the $25,000 Heads Up for $622,300. Botteon also finished sixth in the $25,000 Poker Players Championship for a further $388,837.
Botteon told SuperPoker that making the final table of the World Series of Poker Main Event is the ultimate for any poker player.
'The final two tables were very tough,' he said. 'I was short when 11 players left with seven big blinds, but I managed to get back on top.
'Pure emotion...my year has been sensational, regardless of this result.'
Manuel 'robocup' Ruivo - Portugal - 6,213,759 (31 big blinds)
Second in chips is Portugal's Manuel Ruivo who will be heading to King's Resort looking to secure the biggest WSOP cash of his career.
His best result so far is a sixth place finish in the 2018 Millionaire Maker for $230,120, meaning Ruivo would have to finish at least sixth.
A lover of the outdoors, including fishing, Ruivo says he is an avid watcher of movies. His favorite film? Fight Club.
And although he may have a fight on his hands with chip leader Botteon, Ruivo says that to win the Main Event would be an incredible achievement and 'the pinnacle of [his] career.'
Damian Salas - Argentina - 5,653,528 (28 big blinds)
Damian Salas will be a familiar face to WSOP fans after his seventh-place finish in the 2017 World Series of Poker Main Event

World Series of Poker
Due to the unique hybrid online and live version of the 2020 $10,000 World Series of Poker main event, the winner of this year’s contest walked away with a total of $2,550,969. That’s good for no. 17 all-time.
Prize Money Wsop Main Event 2019
The previous 16 champions of the World Series of Poker $10,000 buy-in main event have all earned at least $5 million, a worthy prize for the highlight of the tournament calendar each year. 2003 WSOP world champion Chris Moneymaker was the last player to win less than that $5 million benchmark, having banked $2.5 million for the win that played a large part in sparking the poker boom of the early 2000s. Moneymaker also won the last main event to have fewer than 1,000 participants.
The largest first-place prize ever awarded in the ‘big dance’ was the $12 million paid out to 2006 champion Jamie Gold. He topped a record field of 8,773 entries that year to earn the massive eight-figure payday and the championship bracelet. Germany’s Hossein Ensan outlasted the second-largest field in the history of the event in 2019 to earn an even $10 million. In 2014 the event featured a guaranteed first-place payout of $10 million as well, which was awarded to Sweden’s Martin Jacobson after he overcame 6,683 entries.
2003 Wsop Main Event Payouts
From 1971 through 2019, more than $162 million in prize money has been awarded to WSOP main event champions. The winner of this storied event has earned at least $1 million every year since 1991 when Brad Daugherty became the first WSOP champ to earn seven figures for the win. In fact, all nine winners from 1991 to 1999 earned $1 million for their main event victory. Johnny Moss earned the smallest prize in history in the second main event, taking home just $30,000 for topping the field of six. The previous year he was elected winner by vote, and didn’t earn any additional prize money.
