The WSOP Online Fall Bracelet Series is underway, with 33 gold bracelets up for grabs for US players. With 18 events already in the books, the series is just past the halfway point, and 15 more bracelets are still to be awarded.
But one player is absolutely running away with it.
Sergei Kislinskii, who plays on WSOP Online under the screen name “CaseyStewart,” has been on an incredible tear, making four final tables, winning two bracelets, and finishing runner-up in two more. That’s four top-two finishes in just 18 events, with more than $225k in prize money collected from those tournaments alone.

His first victory came in Event #6: $2,000 NLH Big PKO. Kislinskii topped a field of 193 entries to claim the bracelet and $90k from the $357k prize pool. Just a couple of days later, he came close to adding another title in Event #8: $1,000 NLH Deepstack, which attracted 372 entries and generated $334,800 in prize money. He finished second, earning approximately $64k.
Kislinskii’s next deep run followed in Event #12: $888 NLH Fall Crazy 8’s. The tournament drew 346 entries and offered a total prize pool of $276,800, but he once again fell just short of the bracelet, finishing in second place for nearly $48k.
After two consecutive runner-up finishes, Kislinskii returned to the winner’s circle in Event #14: $500 NLH 6-Max. The tournament attracted 565 entries and generated a $254,250 prize pool, with Kislinskii taking home another $48k for his second bracelet of the series.
His four top-two finishes have earned him more than $225,607, excluding any additional cashes he may have recorded in other events. Both bracelet victories also came without a re-entry, making his results even more striking. And he’s not done yet.
Chasing a Bracelet Record
Kislinskii is now just one bracelet victory away from matching the record for the most bracelets won by a player in a single series or calendar year. With 15 events still to come, his current form gives him a chance to add to his tally and potentially join an elite group of players who have won three bracelets in a year.
Eight players have achieved three bracelet victories within a calendar year, including some of poker’s biggest names: Phil Hellmuth (1993), Phil Ivey (2002), George Danzer (2014), Scott Seiver (2024), and Benny Glaser (2025).
Winning two more bracelets would put Kislinskii in contention for an even more exclusive record, although he still has a long way to go before challenging the all-time mark for bracelet victories.
His results have also put him firmly at the top of the WSOP Online Fall Series leaderboard. According to the official WSOP website, Kislinskii currently leads with 2,344.6 points. Should he maintain that position through the remaining events, he would collect an additional $15,000 in tournament ticket prizes.
Such dominant performances are not entirely unheard of in online poker. Players including Benny Glaser, Patrick Leonard, Niklas Astedt, and Denis Strebkov have won multiple WCOOP and SCOOP titles, many within the same series. In the US market, a BetRivers Poker streamer Dan “DrDadPoker” Schill recently won six titles and trophies during a single series.
What sets Kislinskii’s run apart is that it is happening during a WSOP bracelet series, one of the most prestigious competitions in poker and arguably the most prestigious tournament series available to players in the US market.
That does not necessarily make his achievement more difficult than winning multiple titles elsewhere. The fall online bracelet events generally attract smaller fields than some other major online series, although they can still feature tough competition. Nevertheless, WSOP bracelets carry a level of prestige that few other online tournament titles can match.
Holtz and Other Standout Performers
Kislinskii is not the only player enjoying a strong run in the 2026 WSOP Online Fall Bracelet Series. Mike “KissTheRings” Holtz has also been among the leading performers, reaching four final tables, finishing second in two events, and winning the most recent tournament, Event #18: $777 NLH Lucky 7’s.
Holtz topped a field of 330 entries in that event, which generated a $231k prize pool, earning more than $44k for the victory. The win brought his career bracelet tally to three, adding to an already accomplished online poker résumé that includes two WSOP Online Player of the Year awards.
He currently sits second in the series leaderboard standings and remains a strong contender for the overall title, having already recorded four deep runs.
Jesse “Dangerous22” Lonis has also made his mark, winning Event #16: $1,000 NLH Mystery Bounty Championship for a payout of nearly $60k. His performance has placed him third in the leaderboard rankings.
Meanwhile, Calvin “SethRogan” Anderson occupies fifth place after winning Event #3: $777 NLH Crazy 7’s, taking home approximately $49k.
With 15 bracelets still up for grabs, the leaderboard remains open, and the remaining events could bring further changes to the standings. Kislinskii has established a substantial lead in terms of results so far, but Holtz and the other contenders still have opportunities to close the gap.
Three bracelet events are scheduled for this weekend. The action begins on October 24 with Event #19: $400 PLOSSUS PKO 6-Max, followed by two bracelet events on Sunday: the $600 NLH Deepstack Championship and the $500 PLO Mystery Bounty 6-Max boasting $200,000 guaranteed prize money.
So far, the 2026 WSOP Online Fall Bracelet Series has awarded more than $5 million in prize money across 8,970 entries. With nearly half the schedule still to be completed, Kislinskii’s pursuit of a third bracelet will be one of the main storylines to follow as the series continues.
