It was a Wilson vs. Wilson showdown for the title in the 2025 Lucky Hearts Poker Open<\/em> $25,500 buy-in no-limit hold\u2019em high roller<\/a> at the Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood in South Florida. In the end, it was Taylor Wilson<\/a> who emerged victorious, defeating Brandon Wilson<\/a> heads-up to earn $511,900 as the champion.<\/p>\n

This was the largest recorded payday yet for Wilson, surpassing the $304,704 he secured as the winner of the 2023 Wynn Millions<\/em> $10,500 buy-in event. He now has more than $2.6 million in total tournament earnings to his name.<\/p>\n

\"BrandonBrandon Wilson earned $304,300 as the runner-up. He fell just one spot short of securing his third high roller title of the month, having won back-to-back $10,100 buy-in tournaments at the PokerGO Tour Last Chance<\/em> festival for a total of $582,500. With $886,800 in to-date earnings and 1,550 Card Player<\/em> Player of the Year<\/a> points already piled up, Brandon Wilson is now sitting in first place in the 2025 POY<\/span><\/span> race rankings presented by Global Poker.<\/a><\/p>\n

Taylor Wilson now has 444 total POY<\/span><\/span> points, which is good for 78th place in the standings.<\/p>\n

The two Wilson\u2019s were part of a 56-entry field in this $25,500 buy-in affair. The $1 million guarantee was surpassed by $383,200, with the top seven finishers earning a share and six-figure payouts for the final five.<\/p>\n

Clemen Deng was knocked out on the bubble late on day 1 of this event. Day 2 began with the remaining seven players in the money. Brian Luo (7th), Matthew Sabia (6th), and recent 2024 World Poker Tour Rock\u2019n\u2019Roll Poker Open<\/em> main event champion Dylan Smith (5th) all hit the rail early.<\/p>\n

2023 WPT<\/span><\/span> World Championship<\/em> winner Daniel Sepiol was the next to fall, earning $131,400 for his fourth-place finish. Four-time bracelet winner Chance Koruth soon followed, earning $186,700 for making the final three.<\/p>\n
