Game, set, and match! Opposed three times in a row to the legend Patrik Antonius, Jared Bleznick imposed his style to win these intense duels. A swift first victory, followed by an immediate rematch that was a bit more contested but yielded the same result, and then a third act where the stakes doubled to reach $200,000 per player. In this mixed format, between No Limit Holdem and Pot Limit Omaha, all heads-up, the winner of the 2024 WSOP High Roller has once again dominated the Hall of Fame member. After this series of face-offs where the pressure was constant, he adds $350,000 to his overall winnings.
A resounding triple!
Thanks to this triple, Bleznick wins the High Stakes Duel championship title, joining legends like Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, and Jason Koon. He also secures the famous championship belt. On the other hand, Patrik Antonius had to retire after this 3-0. He will be credited with a certain lack of success and a format that lends itself to a high level of variance. Who will take his place? Poker Go is already whispering some names... including Daniel Cates, Phil Ivey, Jeremy Ausmus, or Seth Davies! It's enough to make the water in your mouth.
