The domestic portion of the 2020 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event is now in the books and Joseph Hebert from Metairie, Louisiana outclassed his co-finalists to take home the top prize of $1,553,256. The 38-year-old now advances to the special heads-up finale where he will take on Damian Salas, the winner of the event’s international leg.
Hebert led the chips when the final table action began at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas on December 28. He managed to maintain his dominance through to the end, defeating Ron Jenkins heads-up to bring home the trophy. Jenkins walked away with $1,002,340 for his runner-up finish.
