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

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

Rolle has now added another major online tournament victory to a record that includes a 2025 WSOP Online Main Event title.

In 2004, he finished eighth in the WSOP Online Main Event for $661,848. He returned to the same event in 2025 and won it for $3,907,707 and his first bracelet.

His latest victory came in a $1,500 Millionaire Maker field of 5,518 players, which generated a $7,863,150 prize pool.

After Day 1 reduced the field to a nine-handed final table, $4,551,363 remained available to be won, with $1,366,929 reserved for the champion.

In addition to the top prize and WSOP bracelet, the winner received a $30,000 Super Pass to the 2026 edition of the WSOP Paradise Super Main Event.

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

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

The next two eliminations came from Ukrainian players. Denys Chufarin took sixth place for $253,995, while Andrii Derzhypilskyi finished fifth and earned $355,612.

Thailand's Ilsu Lim started the second and final day with 18 big blinds, putting them at the bottom of the chip counts.

Lim nevertheless moved up the payout ladder and reached fourth place. The finish secured a $497,905 prize, substantially more than the $92,590 payout associated with ninth place.

Adrian Strobel was the next player eliminated, leaving the tournament with a $697,152 prize.

Rolle Wins Heads-Up Battle

Rolle and Loris Gauthier advanced to heads-up play, with both players one elimination away from becoming a WSOP champion.

The difference between first and second place was $390,774. Despite the substantial gap in payouts, the two players did not reach a deal, and the tournament continued without an agreement.

Rolle ultimately defeated Gauthier to secure the Millionaire Maker title. The victory earned Rolle $1,366,929 and his second gold bracelet.

Rolle is the founder of the Raise Your Edge training site and has now won a WSOP Online event on GGPoker for the second time. Gauthier finished runner-up and earned $976,155, increasing their bankroll by that amount.
