Jiang and Oshana won their debut WSOP bracelets

Yanting Jiang won $1,159,182 in the $3,000 Mid-Stakes Championship, overcoming a field of 3,668 entries, while Johnny Oshana took home $250,000 in Event #88: $300 Gladiators of Poker with a field of 11,185 players.

🟡Jiang, a single mother of two, claimed victory on her birthday. In the final stage, she personally knocked out the last four opponents, including 25-time WSOP Circuit ring winner Maurice Hawkins.

"I still can't believe it. The first thing I'll do is take my kids on vacation."

🟡Oshana, a mechanical engineer with 16 years of poker experience, managed to defeat Kenneth Baime in the final heads-up. Earlier, at the start of the final day, Oshana lost a big pot with pocket fives against kings to that same Baime, leaving him with a short stack.

"I play better with a short stack, and that motivated me."

Oshana plans to invest part of his winnings into his own investment company, as well as direct funds toward playing in WSOP Circuit tournaments.
