Dzmitry Urbanovich clinches his first WSOP bracelet in the $10K 8-Game Championship

Dzmitry Urbanovich claims maiden WSOP bracelet in $10K 8-Game Championship
Dzmitry Urbanovich has emerged victorious in the $10,000 8-Game Championship at the 2026 World Series of Poker, capturing a $431,260 first-place prize. This landmark victory secures his career-first WSOP gold bracelet.
The championship event attracted a field of 199 players. In the final heads-up duel, Urbanovich defeated American pro Richard Bai, who took home $283,660 as runner-up. The elite final table also featured six-time bracelet winner Brian Rast and high-stakes regular Alex Foxen.
Back in 2015, Urbanovich made history as the youngest player to capture four EPT trophies during a single festival in Malta. This triumph in the grueling 8-Game Championship brings an end to a long-running series of deep runs and close calls at WSOP final tables without a bracelet.
