Many congratulations to Anthony Spinella on winning his first bracelet. This guy has won over $4.5 million playing online so its no surprise to see him winning this WSOP event

Second Place: Hunter Cichy, from Coon Rapids, MN finished in 2nd place. He earned $116,743. This was his fourth time to cash this summer.
Third Place: Craig Varnell, from Ft. Collins, CO finished in 3rd place. He collected $73,079. This was his sixth time to cash at the 2015 series. Varnell has demonstrated a remarkable talent for outmaneuvering large fields. He not only went deep in this tourney, he also cashed in the Colossus and Millionaire Maker events.
Fourth Place: Andrew Rose, from Las Vegas, NV finished in 4th place, which paid $55,884. This marked his second time to cash at the series, after an in-the-money finish in the 2011 WSOP Main Event Championship.
Fifth Place: David Tuthill, from St. Petersburg, FL finished in 5th place, which paid $47,286. He’s now posted four cashes and two final tables this summer, with this being his best showing.
Sixth Place: Ryan Franklin, from Jacksonville, FL finished in 6th place, which paid $33,530. This was his fourth career cash at the series and first since making a deep run in the 2009 Main Event Championship.

Yup, he is on a hot streak right now. I'd happily buy some percentages of his future tourneys tbh.
