World Series of Parker · Event 4-4

Dealer’s Choice, and the Man Who Wins Everything Wins Again

Whatever game was called, Eric Denny was fine with it.

Dealer's Choice is the format where whoever has the button names the game, which in a room that has played Razz, Stud, Big O and H.O.R.S.E. over eight years means anything can happen and usually does. Eric Denny made four of the ten eliminations and won $255 after five hours and twenty-three minutes.

It is his ninth WSOP win, in a series that has handed out twenty across nineteen events, and his third in the four he has played this year.

Lance Cain was second for $175, his fourth WSOP final. Rick Mazza made three knockouts and bubbled in third.

Where the money went

The undercard

Angela Cain rebought and finished fourth, one place behind the bubble. Jeff Ferguson rebought too and was fifth with a knockout.

Andrew Baldwin played his first WSOP event, rebought, and came sixth. Andrew Shier rebought and was the first player out.

The bigger picture

Seven players and four rebuys made $430, the biggest pool of this series so far. Four of the seven bought back in.

Eric Denny leads on 150.43 with one event to play — fifty-five clear of Lance Cain, and far enough ahead that the September finale is a formality unless something strange happens. Only the June heads-up tournament has beaten him in 2025.
