Frank Kassela won two bracelets and the Player of The Year race in WSOP 2010.

So far John Juanda, who took five cashes of which four were from final tables, kept Kassela on his toes until the very end. The solution was seen not until in $25,000 NLHE 6-max. Juanda bubbled in the 19th place when Kassela secured himself five (5) points. Eventually Kassela ranked third in the tournament and cashed over half a million dollars - and took a slim lead in Player of The Year competition.

Kassela conquered five cashes and profited in total two bracelets and more than $1,2 million dollars from the WSOP 2010. This year six players have managed to cash over a million bucks in the WSOP, but this all will change with the Main Event (where the Top 8 will receive over million dollars). The top earner of the summer is still Michael Mizrachi who won the $50k Players’ Championship.
