Mixed-Game MVP of WSOP 2025: Glaser Crowned as the Greatest of All Time
Hey there, let's talk about the poker prodigy, Benny Glaser! This Brit is no stranger to the poker world, and his latest success at the WSOP 2025 only solidifies his status as a force to be reckoned with.
Known as the master of mixed games, Glaser has, in his possession, an impressive collection of seven WSOP titles. His domination of various poker formats against some of the best players worldwide is nothing short of phenomenal[1][2].
This WSOP edition saw Glaser claim not one, but two bracelets! First, he conquered the $1,500 Dealers Choice game, hinting at a potential run for the ages in the 2025 series. A few days later, he showcased his skills in the tough $1,500 Mixed: Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better[3]. His second bracelet in quick succession has catapulted him into a commanding position in the Player of the Year race for 2025.
Let's discuss his seventh bracelet. Competing against 1,239 entries, Glaser triumphed in the $1,500 Mixed game, pocketing $258,193[3]. This victory follows a long list of prestigious titles in diverse poker variants, demonstrating his versatility as a player[4][5].
The final table of Event #15 witnessed eight players, but only one was from outside the U.S. – that defiant British pub-poker champion, Benny Glaser[6]. Despite acknowledging the formidable talents at the table, he managed to emerge victorious, even taking down the American runner-up[6].
So, in this battle royale at the WSOP 2025, the Americans prepared their ammunition, but it was the Brit who kept coming and, eventually, secured the victory[6].
Interesting to note, early in the game, Glaser remarked about his heads-up opponent, showing genuine respect for his skills[6]. Nevertheless, it was a challenging heads-up battle, with Pearson putting up a brave fight. Despite a few nail-biting moments, including one where Pearson thought he had binked the bracelet[6], Glaser persevered and emerged triumphant.
