Quick answer: PokerNews reported on Nov. 11, 2026 that Martin Zamani won Event #33 of the 2026 WSOP Online Fall Bracelet Series, the $500 No-Limit Hold'em Fall Saver, for $83,961. The field was 610 entries, and he beat Shane Martin heads-up. PokerNews called it his fifth online WSOP bracelet. WSOP.com and Card Player still listed two career bracelets as of this writing, both from 2021, so that fifth-bracelet claim has not been independently confirmed.
The $500 Fall Saver
The Fall Saver closed a 33-event WSOP.com series. The published schedule (Pokerfuse and others) listed it for Nov. 10 at 3:30 p.m. PT as a $500 no-limit hold'em event in a shared pool for Nevada, New Jersey, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. PokerNews said Zamani was playing from Nevada.
No official WSOP.com results page for this 2026 event was up when this was written, so the field size, payouts, and re-entry details below come from PokerNews. That report had first prize at $83,961, Shane Martin in second for $61,866, both men entering twice, and Martin as a WSOP Circuit ring winner. The reported eight-handed payouts were:
- 1st: Martin Zamani — $83,961
- 2nd: Shane Martin — $61,866
- 3rd: Daniel Maor — $45,338
- 4th: "coolchilldude" — $33,142
- 5th: "PirateKing" — $22,095
- 6th: Jeffery Hoop — $15,466
- 7th: James Collopy — $11,047
- 8th: David Peters — $8,838
PokerNews identified Maor as the 2024 WSOP Online Championship winner and noted that Collopy and Peters, both bracelet winners, lasted deep. Peters had already won a fifth bracelet in July 2026 (PokerNews; PokerGO Tour).
Earlier bracelets, and a conflict in the record
Zamani's first two bracelets are well documented, and both came online in 2021. In July he won the $888 pot-limit Omaha Crazy Eights event on WSOP.com, beating 507 entries for $92,598 (Card Player, July 20, 2021). In early October he won the $5,300 no-limit hold'em freezeout, a 156-entry field, and beat Ankush Mandavia heads-up for $210,600 (Card Player, Oct. 4, 2021; also listed on the Hendon Mob). He has used the screen name "BathroomLine" on WSOP.com.
PokerNews said the Fall Saver was his fifth online bracelet, that his fourth had come almost a year earlier, and that the win tied Guy Dunlap, who the same article said reached five online titles this summer in a Monster Stack. PokerNews's Dunlap player page lists five bracelets and $107,871 in live earnings, credited to the Hendon Mob.
Other records did not yet agree on Nov. 11, 2026. WSOP.com's main Zamani profile listed two bracelets, four Circuit rings, and $4,989,270 in WSOP-counted earnings, and it omitted the Fall Saver. Card Player, with results through Nov. 4, also listed two bracelets. WSOP.com's Dunlap profile still listed four. Until those databases and an official results page catch up, those claims are reported here as PokerNews's account, not as independently confirmed fact.
The live résumé behind the $500 entry
Zamani is from Boca Raton, Florida (Card Player). PokerNews's player page lists $8,579,710 in live earnings, attributed to the Hendon Mob, matching the "more than $8.5 million" line in its Fall Saver story. Card Player, using a broader recorded-earnings total, had him at $9,672,410.
His largest live score remains the 2019 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure $25,000 High Roller, won for $895,110 (Card Player; PokerNews). In 2023 he won the $50,000 U.S. Poker Open event for $666,000 and the series title. He also finished third in the 2024 EPT Barcelona €1,100 Estrellas Poker Tour Main Event for €463,250, about $518,559 (Hendon Mob figures as cited by PokerNews). At the 2026 WSOP he took fourth in the $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship for $445,080 and cashed 530th in the Main Event for $32,500 (WSOP.com; Card Player).
What smaller-stakes players can take from it

There is no invented "Zamani method" to pull from one result. Official bracelets are not reserved for $10,000 championships. This one came in a $500 event on a public schedule, in a field of several hundred, and — if PokerNews is right about the second bullet — after he had already busted once. Showing up, including after a bust, is a habit available at smaller buy-ins too. Players who want a place to practice those tournament decisions can do so on Superintelligencepoker.com.
