Five Left in the $250 Deepstack — and One Has Four Rings

Five players remain in WSOP Event #373, the $250 Daily Deepstack — the cheapest bracelet event on this summer's schedule — and the final table has a twist nobody saw coming.

Four of the five finalists have either zero or sub-$10K in lifetime tournament earnings. Then there's Ronald Sewell.

The Outlier at the Table

Sewell has four WSOP Circuit rings, $842,007 in lifetime tournament cashes, and 10 career final tables. He's the only player left with a résumé that extends beyond a single page. In a $250 event surrounded by players the database barely recognizes, Sewell is the closest thing to a favorite — and a bracelet would be a significant step up from his Circuit hardware.

The rest of the field reads like the WSOP's version of a debut novel. Ashot Miskayan and Alex Kelev have no recorded bracelets, no rings, and no listed lifetime earnings. Sandeep Chaduvula has $8,290 in career cashes. Shreyas Erapalli has $8,951 and one prior final table.

Ronald Sewell has four WSOP Circuit rings, $842,007 in lifetime tournament cashes, and 10 career final tables — and he's grinding the $250 Deepstack for a shot at his first bracelet.

Why This Is Worth Watching

The $250 buy-in makes this the most accessible bracelet event of the summer, and the final table reflects that. This isn't a super high roller where everyone has a Wikipedia page. Four of these five players are chasing a life-defining score on a $250 bullet.

For Sewell, the math is different. He's proven he can close — four rings say that clearly. But a gold bracelet isn't a gold ring. Converting here, at the cheapest buy-in on the schedule, would be a strange and perfect capstone to a career built on the Circuit.

The stream is live now from the Horseshoe. Five players. One bracelet. No chip counts available yet, so you'll have to watch the stacks shift in real time.
