Sources: WSOP.com's official 2019 results (fields, prizes and players' countries) and Wikipedia's 2019 World Series of Poker results (event names and career bracelet counts), checked against each other in October 2026, with PokerNews and Card Player for every disagreement. Event #1 had 685 entries (Wikipedia shows 686). Event #1's first prize was $62,248 per WSOP.com; PokerNews' $62,345 comes from a payout table computed for 686 entries. Event #9 had 6,150 entries per WSOP.com (PokerNews and Wikipedia show 6,151). Event #32 had 5,916 entries (Wikipedia shows 5,917). WSOP.com lists some winners under a screen name, a legal name or a misspelling (#42 Aristeidis Moschonas, #61 Sejin Park, #83 Keith Tilston); we use the names they play under. Prizes are rounded to the dollar, so one may differ by $1 from another source's figure. Where Wikipedia counts unique players rather than entries (one re-entry event), the entries here are WSOP.com's, which the prize pool divides by. Spotted a mistake? Tell us.
