Out of a field of 331 players, who created a prize pool of $886,440, it was Ryan Miller and Leonard August that came back to Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas to settle who would be crowned the champion in an extra Day 4 of Event #91: $3,000 H.O.R.S.E. After less than a level of heads up play, it was Miller who secured the win and his second bracelet of the summer. He took home $208,460 while August had to settle for the $128,835 that came with his second place.

After outlasting a final table with, among others Todd Brunson, Barbara Enright, and Calvin Anderson, Miller and August sat down at the Horseshoe Event Center to continue play at 2 p.m. They started with six hands left in Omaha eight or better, but they would end up not playing a full rotation of games.
Leonard started off Day 4 well by winning a few pots in Omaha eight or better and razz before Miller took back the lead in stud. With few showdowns throughout the day, it was mostly August folding to Miller's bets that ground him down. With only 20 big bets in play, every pot counted, and eventually August folded postflop in three consecutive limit hold 'em pots and saw himself left with less than one big bet.
That big bet would go in preflop on the next hand of the two-card game, with August's seven-deuce suited being dominated by Miller's jack-deuce suited. Miller would flop a jack, and while the turn came a seven, the river would remain clean for Miller as he secured the win and his second bracelet.
"I came in today feeling pretty good, but right away he evened it up, so at that point, I thought that anything could happen. The limits are high, so if anyone wins three or four hands in a row it's gonna swing their way. But then the next round or two went my way and I finished it."
Miller, who says 95 percent of his time is spent on cash games, only played five events, of which he cashed three and won two. "It feels surreal, like it's not possible," Miller commented on this absurd statistic. "I was just hoping to cash in a couple of events, and I just happened to win two of them." When asked if his recent success would change his plans for next summer, Miller responded: "I will probably just play the same five or six events, the Player of Year race doesn't really interest me."
Whether or not he will change his mind, Miller will definitely be considered a threat in any tournament he does choose to enter.
That wraps up the coverage of Event #91: $3,000 H.O.R.S.E. but the World Series of Poker is not quite over yet. Be sure to check out the PokerNews live reporting of the final events to see who will capture the final few bracelets on the last day of the 2023 WSOP.

After a Day 3 clash that lasted deep into the night, Ryan Miller and Leonard August are the two players that will return to Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas today to decide who will win one of the final bracelets of the 2023 World Series of Poker on an extra Day 4 of Event #91: $3,000 H.O.R.S.E..
Miller, who won his maiden bracelet this year in the $10,000 Stud Hi-Lo 8-or-Better Championship, will be coming in with more than double the chips of August, who is trying to follow in Miller's footsteps and capture his first WSOP bracelet in this event. Still, if the final hours of Day 3 are anything to go by, the title fight is not decided yet. With August still having eight big bets at his disposal, there is still plenty of room for him to maneuver himself to a victory, even with Miller having the edge at the start.
Heads-Up Chip Counts
| Name | Country | Chip Count | Big Bets |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ryan Miller | United States | 9,300,000 | 19 |
| Leonard August | United States | 3,925,000 | 8 |
The pair have already outlasted the other 329 players that started the tournament, as well as the legendary final table that took place on Day 3. However, fighting over the lion's share of the $886,440 prize pool, Miller and August were the final two titans remaining on a final table with two Hall of Famers and 12 bracelets won across the eight players that sat down. With the winner taking home a cash prize of $208,460, as well as an iconic WSOP bracelet, there is still plenty to fight for, however.
