Carlos Welch is the latest player to win a WSOP bracelet, thanks to a late-night victory in the “Crazy Eights” event on WSOP.com. Just hours after the victory, he shares his excitement and reflects on the path that led him here.

Carlos first appeared on the show eight years ago, on Episode 39. It remains one of my all-time favorite interviews.
