The 2020 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Event #73: $10,000 Stud Hi-Lo Championship attracted 144 players, and after four days of split-pot action, Brian Hastings emerged victorious to claim the $352,958 first-place prize and his fifth career gold bracelet.
“I feel great. It’s hard to have it even sink in,” Hastings said after his victory. “I was just so focused on playing. I came into Day 4 fourth out of four, so I really wasn’t expecting it, but I’m really happy with how I played, happy with how I ran, and excited about it.”
By doing so, Hastings became just the 29th player in the WSOP’s more than five-decade history to win five bracelets. He joins the likes of Michael “The Grinder” Mizrachi, Brian Rast, Shaun Deeb, Scotty Nguyen, Stu Ungar, and more in the five-time bracelet club.
“I didn’t know the exact number, but I knew it wasn’t that many,” Hastings said when presented with the stat. “It definitely matters to me. I think it’s cool to compete on that level. There are some great players on the list of those with a bunch of bracelets. It’s certainly a goal of mine and I’m happy to be in that company.”
Hastings won his first bracelet back in 2012 in Event #12: $10,000 Heads-Up NLH Championship for $371,498. In 2015, he nabbed two more taking down Event #27: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship for $239,518 and Event #39: $1,500 10-Game Mix for $133,403, and in 2018 he prevailed in Event #76: $3,000 H.O.R.S.E. for $233,202. The latest win moved Hastings past the $4-million mark in lifetime tournament earnings.
It’s already been an impressive career for the 33-year-old married man and new father, and he’s still seven years away from even being eligible for the Poker Hall of Fame.
“I’m young enough that I haven’t thought about it too much but I think it’s a really cool thing,” he told PokerNews when asked about legacy. “It would be a huge honor and definitely something that would be really cool to me.”

Others to cash the tournament were current 2021 WSOP Player of the Year leader Josh Arieh (9th - $30,290), Shaun Deeb (13th - $22,536), Esther Taylor (15th - $20,426), Adam Owen (19th - $17,872), and Eli Elezra (22nd - $16,340).
Final Table Action
The final table was a stacked affair with 23 bracelets represented between the final eight players. Half of those fell in late on Day 3 including Gary Benson (8th - $36,821), Erik Seidel (7th - $46,140), John Monnette (6th - $59,545), and Marco Johnson (5th - $79,073).
The tournament was originally scheduled as a three-day event, but an extended fourth day was needed to accommodate the final four players. On Tuesday, a quartet of well-established poker pros returned to battle it out, each jostling with similar stacks during the first level of the day.
Upon returning from the first break, Scott Seiver found himself stuck in reverse before finally bowing out in fourth place when he missed a low draw against Ian O’Hara’s made flush. Not long after, the start-of-day chip leader Yuval Bronshtein saw his quest for a third bracelet come to an end when he was dispatched by O’Hara in third place.
O’Hara took a slight chip lead into heads-up play against Hastings, but the latter drew first blood to even things out. Eventually, Hastings picked up some momentum and slowly chipped away at his opponent. O’Hara, who was seeking his first career bracelet, staved off elimination for a while, but eventually, he missed a low against Hasting’s sixth-street flush to fall in second place.
Hastings concluded: “It’s been a long time for this for me. I think I started playing mixed games in 2008 or 2009. At the time I was playing the big no-limit and PLO games and I saw some of the players I was playing with doing the mixed games. I thought it looked interesting and started to learn that. It’s kind of snowballed from there.”
Congratulations to Brian Hastings, winner of the 2021 WSOP Event #73: $10,000 Stud Hi-Lo Championship!

O'Hara called and then checked on sixth after pairing. Hastings bet 240,000, O'Hara raised all in for 260,000 total, and Hastings called.
Hastings showed a flush and that left O'Hara looking to make a low just to survive. That didn't happen though as he paired his ace on seventh.
Stay tuned for a full tournament recap.

Ian O'Hara brought it in and then called when Brian Hastings completed. The latter check-called a bet on fourth and then called a bet on fifth after O'Hara paired eights.
Hastings called another bet on sixth before action went check-check on seventh.
"Stamps," O'Hara said indicating he just had the pair of eights showing. It was no good as Hastings tabled a nine for a slightly bigger pair.

Previously, Brian Hastings won a pot off Ian O'Hara by scooping with a flush and eighty-six to leave the latter with about 1.6M in chips.
O'Hara won all of those chips back shortly in a hand that started off by him bringing it in with a queen. Hastings completed the ace before both players checked fourth street.
Hastings bet fifth street, O'Hara then bet sixth street after getting the betting lead with an open pair. On the river, O'Hara bet, Hastings raised, O'Hara put in three bets, and Hastings reluctantly called it off.
O'Hara rolled over 
for fours full, Hastings acknowledged the winner and mucked.
