Arthur Thiriart Wins First WSOP Bracelet Online

Arthur "Higher Self" Thiriart has won his first WSOP bracelet, taking down Event #6: $1,500 Monster Stack NLH at the 2026 WSOP Online for $256,542 and a $30,000 Super Pass to the 2026 WSOP Paradise Super Main Event.

The result stands as the largest recorded tournament score of Thiriart's career. His previous best was $51,713 for a 14th-place finish in the 2026 WSOP Las Vegas $10,000 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed Championship, making this online bracelet victory a major step forward in both payout and profile.

A Career Best From a 1,482-Entry Field

The $1,500 Monster Stack NLH drew 1,482 entrants and generated a $2,111,850 prize pool. The top 210 finishers reached the money, with Thiriart securing the largest share after closing out the tournament.

First place paid $256,542, which was $204,829 more than Thiriart's previous recorded high score. The bracelet also added a milestone title to a result already notable for its financial scale.

How the Final Table Finished

Hong Kong's "Mufeng2024" finished runner-up for $201,150 after falling to Thiriart heads-up. The $55,392 gap between first and second place was the final payout separation at the top of the structure.

Giorgiy "Giya" Skhulukhiya placed third for $157,718, followed by "liano96" in fourth for $123,664. "Puntti" finished fifth for $96,963, while Dante Fernandes took sixth for $76,027.

The rest of the final table included Anatoly Filatov in seventh for $59,612, "Vampula" in eighth for $46,740, and "MonoConPistola" in ninth for $36,648.

The Super Pass Adds Another Layer

Alongside the bracelet and cash prize, Thiriart received a $30,000 Super Pass to the 2026 WSOP Paradise Super Main Event. Combined with the $256,542 first-place payout, the two stated awards carry a total value of $286,542.

That added prize gives the win additional tournament significance beyond the immediate Monster Stack result. For Thiriart, the event delivered a first WSOP bracelet, a new recorded career-best score, and a direct connection to the 2026 WSOP Paradise Super Main Event.

Series Context After the Monster Stack

The result came as the 2026 WSOP Online bracelet schedule continued. The next listed bracelet event was the $500 Mini Main Event, which had drawn 12,113 entrants and created a $5,753,675 prize pool.

That event's projected first-place prize was $747,545, and its final table had reached nine players in the tournament update. The Monster Stack result, however, was already settled: Thiriart was the champion, "Mufeng2024" was the runner-up, and the bracelet marked the biggest recorded score of Thiriart's career.
