Ari Engel extended his lead on the WSOP Circuit rings leaderboard by claiming his 18th ring in an online event. The Canadian born poker legend now holds 18 Circuit Rings and 3 World Series of Poker Bracelets, with more than $8.7 million in live poker earnings. His latest victory came in the ongoing September Online Super Circuit, held on WSOP.com in Pennsylvania.

Engel competed in Event #9: $888 NLH Crazy 8’s tournament and secured his 18th Circuit ring along with the top prize of $16,732. Earlier this year, he claimed his 17th career Circuit ring in the WSOPC Online Michigan Event #11: $500 BIG 500 8-Max NLH, where he outlasted 76 players to win $9,778.

With this recent win, Engel further solidified his position at the top of the WSOP Circuit ring leaderboard. Maurice Hawkins ranks second with 16 rings, while Joshua Richard holds third place with 15 rings.

Announcing his victory on X (formerly Twitter), Engel wrote, “I won my WSOP Circuit ring #18 in a $888 online circuit tournament with 61 entrants (I was 2) on wsopPA.”

The $888 buy-in tournament attracted 61 entries (33 unique), generating a prize pool of $51,484. Engel initially busted early but re-entered during the late registration period. He played some top notch poker and finally emerged victorious.
