WSOP Finalist Gerchon Distenfeld to Donate All Winnings to Charity


Gerchon Distenfeld, a top manager in a financial company, has made it to the final table of the American stage of the WSOP Main Event. With 3,475,481 chips, he is currently in sixth place. The final table is scheduled for January 28 in Las Vegas.

Distenfeld, who considers poker a hobby, has announced that he will donate his entire winnings to charity. The prize pool ranges from $98,813 for ninth place to $1,553,256 for first place.

The winner of the American stage will face Damian Salas, the winner of the international stage, in a heads-up match on December 30 in Las Vegas. The ultimate winner will receive $1 million and a gold champion bracelet.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
