On a rare day where PokerListings.com's 2008 World Series of Poker* coverage saw only one prestigious gold bracelet awarded, it was undeniably fitting that it went to one of the few "larger-than-life" characters big enough to carry a whole day himself. That guy: bombastic Full Tilt Poker pro Mike "The Mouth" Matusow, who captured his third career WSOP* bracelet on Wednesday by outlasting perhaps the toughest field in World Series history in Event 18, $5,000 No-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw w/Rebuys.
Day 12 of PokerListings.com's live 2008 World Series of Poker* coverage was the first to feature three final tables and, as has been the case with every event so far this year, it was first-time bracelet winners who walked off with all the gold. The newly crowned: Svetlana Gromenkova, Winner of Event 15 and the new Ladies World Champion; Andrew Brown, who surprised five-time bracelet winner Ted Forrest to take Event 16; and Jason Young, who captured Event 17, the $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout.

Not Daniel Negreanu. Not Phil Ivey. Nor any other of the heavily favored poker legends who stepped to the felt for Event 14, the $10,000 World Championship of Seven-Card Stud, at the 2008 World Series of Poker* on Monday. The new Stud World Champ is a 48-year-old business owner from Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania, named Eric Brooks, who not only stunned the elite field for the prestigious title and bracelet, stunned the poker media on hand by announcing he was donating all $415,856 of his first-place prize to charity.
