Aside from the 2017 WSOP Main Event, Sinclair's other big paydays included his first ever title last August in the €25,000 Party Poker German Poker Championships Super High Roller 8-Max in Rozvadov for $294,735. In the same city, but this time at the WSOPE three months later, Sinclair finished 16th in the High Roller for One Drop for $206,980.
