Omar Zazay

Biography

Omar Zazay is an American poker player who won his first WSOP bracelet in 2026. He defeated a 1,300-player field in Event #32: $3,000 No-Limit Hold'em.

He overcame heads-up opponent Jean-Robert Bellande to win $538,158. His previous best WSOP result was a 19th-place finish in the $25,000 PLO High Roller in 2018 for $46,190.

"Feeling pretty amazing," he told PokerNews. "Just was a roller coaster of a tournament, battled a lot of adversity, had the chip lead a few times, lost it a few times. I remember being down to ten big blinds like halfway through day three, and I just never gave up. I told my wife, I'm gonna keep fighting and I'm here to win a bracelet."

Zazay's largest career cash came in 2015, when he won the Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open Championship for $1,000,000.
