Benjamin Rolle won the $1,500 Millionaire Maker in WSOP Online on GGPoker for $1,366,929 and his second WSOP bracelet.

Benjamin Rolle has added a second WSOP bracelet to his collection after winning the $1,500 Millionaire Maker online at GGPoker for $1,366,929.

Rolle has established a strong record in major online tournament fields. In 2004, he finished eighth in the WSOP Online Main Event for $661,848 before returning to win the same event in 2025 for $3,907,707 and his first bracelet.

His latest victory came in the $1,500 Millionaire Maker, where 5,518 players competed for a $7,863,150 prize pool.

Day 1 reduced the field to a nine-handed final table, with $4,551,363 still available to be won. The eventual champion was set to receive $1,366,929, along with a WSOP bracelet and a $30,000 Super Pass to the 2026 edition of the WSOP Paradise Super Main Event.

Germany's Marcel Kessler arrived at the final table with the second-shortest stack and became the first finalist eliminated. His ninth-place finish earned him $92,590, making it the only final-table payout below six figures.

Jeremie Zouari followed in eighth place, collecting $129,600. China's Song Li then exited in seventh for $181,425.

Two Ukrainian players were next to leave the tournament. Denys Chufarin finished sixth for $253,995, while Andrii Derzhypilskyi secured fifth place and $355,612.

Thailand's Ilsu Lim began the second and final day with 18 big blinds, the smallest stack among the remaining players.

Despite starting at the bottom of the chip counts, Lim climbed the payout ladder and ultimately finished fourth. The result earned $497,905, significantly more than the $92,590 that had been associated with ninth place.

The tournament then reached three-handed play, with all three remaining players displaying the Austrian flag next to their names in the GGPoker lobby.

Adrian Strobel was the next player eliminated, securing $697,152 for third place and leaving Rolle and Loris Gauthier to contest the title.


Rolle Wins Heads-Up Battle

Rolle and Gauthier entered heads-up play knowing that the next elimination would determine the WSOP champion.

The difference between first and second place was $390,774. Despite the substantial gap between the two payouts, no deal was reached, and the tournament continued without an agreement.

Rolle ultimately defeated Gauthier to claim the Millionaire Maker title, his second WSOP Online event victory and second gold bracelet.

The win earned Rolle $1,366,929. Rolle is also the founder of the Raise Your Edge training site.
Gauthier finished runner-up and received $976,155, representing the second-place payout from the event.


Rolle's Millionaire Maker victory adds another WSOP Online bracelet to his record after his 2025 WSOP Online Main Event triumph.

The $1,500 Millionaire Maker brought 5,518 players to GGPoker and generated a $7,863,150 prize pool. 

After reaching the final table and progressing through a field that included players from Germany, China, Ukraine, Thailand and Austria, Rolle emerged as champion with $1,366,929 and his second gold bracelet.
