Peter Eastgate Selling His WSOP Bracelet

Though it might sound ignorant and infuriating to some to sell a piece of history, a well earned relic of the greatest achievment a poker player can have, it's not that selfish as it seems at first. Eastgate explains he will donate 100% of the profits to UNICEF.

"Of course, I am still extremely proud of my title to this day. But the bracelet itself, I am never wearing, since I really don’t wear any jewelry. So I thought that by giving away the bracelet and watches, a lot more people will hopefully be able to benefit from the items." - Eastgate says. The news is debated at Two Plus Two already, forum members are generally happy with the retired WSOP champion's decision, and think it's the best use for a WSOP bracelet. Well, much better than having it collect dust on a shelf as they say.


You can find the eBay page of the bracelet here. The bidding starts at $16,000, and there'a already a bid. We are very curios about the outcome of the auction. Many suggest a poker room such as PokerStars will buy it and offer it as the main prize of a heavily promoted tournament. 9 days, and it will turn out.
