An interesting dilemma from Aaron Barone. What are your thoughts?

Not sure where this came from, but it’s an interesting question.

Here’s your chance to win a seat in the upcoming UKPL Reading South event.

Put in some volume at 888poker, win your entry to the freeroll taking place on July 4, and fight for one of 30 seats for the UKPL Reading South tournament.

Daniel Weinman doing an AMA on X in light of all the RFID drama.

With so many buzz around the RFID technology over the last couple of days, Daniel Weinman decided to join the discussion and set up an AMA thread on X where you can ask him anything about it. This is a great opportunity for all curious minds out there.

PokerStars on FanDuel is teaming up with Maryland State Poker Championship.

The newly-launched PokerStars on FanDuel platform will be the official title sponsor of the live festival taking place in August and September, promising the next level of experience for the players.

Check out some poker legends coming together in Negreanu’s latest vlog.

First, there is a festive opening of the new WSOP store, and then it’s back to business for Daniel, as he mixes it up with the likes of Gus Hansen and Phil Ivey in the $10k Limit Hold’em Championship.

Texas Mike is not afraid to pull the trigger.

With a huge river bet, he really puts Wasserson to the test. Almost impossible to call with just a second pair, but what a spot…

Check out the final stats for the Million Dollar Game.

The action is over, and the numbers are in. The big Million Dollar Game that took place in Las Vegas saw some huge pots, with a few players winning and losing seven figures. It’s also all available to watch on YouTube.

Players are loving the new soccer-themed promo at FanDuel Poker.

Looking at the stats, the Spin & Goal promotion at FanDuel Poker has been going well, with over 100k tournaments played so far. But that massive jackpot prize is yet to hit.

Check out the second-largest pot in the HLC history!

With the stakes and the lineup, it was almost bound to happen. And what a surprise that Alan Keating is involved.

Watching Ivey and Negreanu battle it out on the green felt never gets old.

For those who have been poker fans for a while, seeing these two in a pot always feels like a blast from the past. DNegs and Ivey have been battling for what seems like an eternity, and they are still going at it, as eager as ever.

There is no stopping Nick Schulman.

Proving his mixed game mastery once more, Nick Schulman went on to win his eighth WSOP bracelet by taking down Event #37 – $1,500 H.O.R.S.E.

Schulman outlasted the field of 780 players to add another big win to his resume and pick up the first place money of $183,000!

Major changes to the Poker Hall of Fame – up to six players could now be inducted in a single year.

In what is probably the biggest shakeup to the Poker Hall of Fame rules, the system has been changed to allow for eight nominees and up to six of them potentially being inducted in a single year.

While six is not likely to happen, we’ll certainly see more deserving players inducted on a yearly basis, instead of one or two per year. This is something the poker community has been demanding for a while, and the change is finally here.

June 12

The Million Dollar game is happening right now – watch it live!

Right now, is Santhosh, Peter, and Stanley driving the action, but there are a couple of more players set to arrive later on, including Alan Keating. It’s going to be an action-packed night with some monster pots.

Watch Martin Kabrhel at the $100k High Roller final table.

Big money up for grabs, some of the best players in the world, and Martin Kabrhel to add some spice. It should be one of the more entertaining streams – or one of the more annoying, depending on your stance on Martin’s antics.

Garrett Adelstein joins the YouTube streets.

The player who became a fans’ favorite through his appearances on high stakes live streams and was in the center of the infamous J-4 scandal has started creating his own YouTube content.

Check out Garrett’s first video, dissecting one of his biggest pots. According to the description, the video is a segment from Adelstein’s upcoming training course on Upswing Poker.

Do you know how to deal with long stretches of bad, unplayable hands?

Being card dead for long periods is not that uncommon, especially in live poker, where you only get to see 30 – 40 hands an hour. Jonathan Little brings some simple but useful tips on what to do in these situations and how to get the best you can out of them.

Coverage starts from June 19th!

Ebony Kenney parts ways with ACR Poker.

She’s had a lot of success working with ACR, and it will be interesting to see if she gets snapped up by another operator soon.

GGPoker is going big this June, putting a $1,000,000 prize pool on the table for its Spin & Gold players.

The “Go for Gold” promo lets players collect a set of five different stamps by hitting various multipliers in Spin & Gold games, with prizes up to $10,000 available until the full million is given away.

You don’t need to win the most or outplay your opponents, you just need to keep playing and collect the required stamps. The stamps are awarded for different multipliers, and they can be mixed between 3-max and 6-max games.

“All you need to do to participate is sign up with GGPoker, log in, and jump into Spin & Gold games at any buy-in level, which will give you a fair chance of collecting the necessary stamps and competing for the added cash prizes.”

The promo starts June 12 and runs until the last dollar is claimed, so there’s plenty of time to chase down those elusive stamps.

The World Series of Poker clears the air on the recent controversy regarding the rules under which their content can be redistributed on other channels.

“The rules governing clip rights have never been more favorable for the media. However, the guidelines were not respected in this case. Under the rules, they must wait six hours after the content has aired before using the clips. This is the standard across all sports and does not affect or alter our content.”

Five players, millions on the line, one turn card making dreams or nightmares.

The WPT World Championship final table gets flipped upside down by a single card, and now the chip counts look like someone shuffled them mid-hand. Poker can be cruel, but it sure is fun to watch from the sidelines.

The WSOP $50,000 High Roller final table brought together some of the world’s top poker names for a shot at one of the summer’s most coveted titles.

Santhosh Suvarna outlasted the competition and bagged over $1.9 million, putting Chang Lee and Colin Robinson in second and third with $1.2 million and $893k respectively.

The World Series of Poker has picked GTO Wizard as its official poker training partner for 2026.

If you’ve tuned into the live streams, you’ve probably noticed the ‘Optimal Play’ graphics popping up at every key decision point.

According to PokerNews, these graphics now provide insight into whether the players are following GTO-approved actions or going their own way.

According to Paul Seaton on Pokerati, Chris Moorman has traded grey English skies for a life in the Nevada desert.

He’s found that the perpetual sunshine of Las Vegas does more than just brighten his mood; it keeps him out and about, balancing poker with golf, pickleball, and padel. After some years in Los Angeles, Moorman is now a fixture on the Vegas scene, chasing more WSOP bracelets while reflecting on the ups and downs of his career.

Moorman admits that his love for poker has fluctuated. “It’s impossible to love it as much as when you first start delving into the game, and I’ve had short periods throughout my career where I feel like I’ve lost the love for it a bit. But I try to take breaks when I get these feelings and mix it up by playing different formats and studying new things.”

He’s also keen on paying it forward, using lessons from his early days to help the next generation of players. It seems weather and attitude both play a part in shaping a poker pro’s journey.

Ren Lin is once again grabbing headlines, this time by bagging the chip lead after Day 1 of the $100,000 High Roller at the WSOP.

Despite more than $19 million in live earnings, Lin still hasn’t managed to lock up a WSOP bracelet. According to PokerNews, he’s been runner-up three different times, but the hardware remains elusive.

Alan Keating is the man everyone tries to beat at Hustler Casino Live’s Million Dollar Game.

After losing his first session in 2023, he’s won five in a row, netting close to $4 million according to PokerNews.

His friendly rival, Peter Wang, remains the only one with a better record, up over $5 million in just six sessions. This year’s field is stacked, with four WSOP bracelet winners joining the battle, plus high-stakes regulars like Eric Wasserson and Stanley Tang.

Phil Ivey’s 2026 WSOP.

Ouch. Seventeen days in, the 11-time bracelet winner has been eliminated from several high-profile events, including the $100,000 High Roller and the $25,000 Heads-Up Championship. Despite being a top fantasy pick, he’s yet to score a point for Team Verderamo.

This is a great precis of the WSOP x Solana partnership.

Apparently poker staking and predictions markets may also be coming soon via the partnership.

Couldn’t agree more with this WSOP take.

The delay is way too long (although now we know why: the footage is edited in Korea before being uploaded), and for people in Europe, it’s almost impossible to follow along.

The WSOP Countdown crew discuss what games should be streamed.

You can even vote for what you want to see on upcoming streams:

Jeff Platt admits the WSOP live viewing experience is still a work in progress.

He says that while side tables B and C let fans get close to the action, the center table is a different story. A lack of elevation leaves people craning their necks, and the experiment with the so-called spy cam was a bust.

Tune in for the $100k High Roller action.

Streaming tonight on the WSOP official YouTube channel is Day 2 of the $100,000 High Roller event, featuring some of the biggest names in the game. It is a rather late start, but worth sticking around for!

June 11

It’s Scotty, baby!

We haven’t seen a lot of Scotty Nguyen lately, but he is here for the World Series of Poker as he’s been missing the game. Let’s see if he can get some deep runs this summer.

Martin Kabrhel just can’t stop…

It’s not like we are not used to seeing Martin needling players and being disruptive, but rooting against Kristen in a hand that he’s not even involved in just feels in poor taste.

The Mixed Game Festival is wrapping up today at the Bellagio.

It’s your last day to get in on the action and have some fun playing all sorts of known and unknown games at $4/$8 and $6/$12 limits.

Wow, all WSOP live streams get edited in South Korea.

Jeff Platt explains that all the footage is edited in Korea before becoming available to view, hence the two-hour delay.

Luxon Pay has stepped into the limelight as the official payment partner of WSOP Global Events, and this now includes Americans, thanks to a recent deal with Lexicon Bank.

According to PokerNews, players can use Luxon Pay for tournament buy-ins at the 2026 WSOP in Las Vegas, but only after completing an in-person verification process at the Paris convention center.

Stop Arguing with Reality #600 on Smart Poker Study takes a hard look at the mental gymnastics players put themselves through when they resist the facts at the table.

They dive into the pitfalls of ignoring evidence and pushing your own narrative. According to the show notes, the key to poker success is 'accepting what is, rather than what you wish were true.’

In this episode of Behind The Shuffle, Soheb Porbandarwala paints a picture of online poker that is less about wild bluffs and more about surviving in a lawless frontier.

He talks about the industry’s need for better security, real player incentives, and a much bigger focus on trust.

Porbandarwala says the lack of regulation has left the ecosystem open to AI cheats and shady operators, making it tough for honest players to thrive. He argues the industry must “focus on transparency and integrity” if it wants to grow, not just for the pros but for everyone at the table.

FanDuel Poker, powered by PokerStars, had a big debut in April by merging player pools from three states.

According to Anuj on fuse, “the impact was immediate,” with the new network quickly topping US traffic charts. The initial rush faded, but the network still led the pack in activity.

Phil Hellmuth wont rest until he gets “24 f**king bracelets.”

If you only watch one of these videos, make it the top one.

Three newly-minted ACR sponsored players have already made their presence felt at the 2026 World Series of Poker, according to WebWire.

Alex Foxen, Chance Kornuth, and Chris Hunichen each made final table runs in the early going of the Vegas summer.

WebWire notes that the trio have wasted no time living up to the hype. Early results suggest that ACR’s new signings are not just for show.

Kristen Foxen is putting up numbers that make even seasoned pros double-check the maths.

PokerNews points out that since her 13th place finish in the 2024 WSOP Main, she’s racked up four million-dollar scores in less than a year. Most of those came against the world’s toughest fields, including regular deep runs at the Triton Super High Roller Series.

Foxen has made 23 final tables since July 2024, with 12 top-three finishes. In the last year, she’s cashed 36 times and reached the final table 13 times.

WSOP Countdown returned for Day 13 with Jeff Platt, David Williams, Joe Stapleton, and Norman Chad breaking down the action at the 2026 World Series of Poker.

According to the crew, the big buzz was the unveiling of the new WSOP set and a major presenting sponsor, which they seemed to think was a game-changer for the event.

The $50k High Roller reaches its conclusion tonight.

The live stream starts a bit earlier than usual, and it is a pretty stacked final table, featuring the likes of Santhosh Suvarna, Chris Brewer, and Brandon Wilson.

Patrick Leonard offers an interesting take on WSOP streams.

We know by now that it’s impossible to make everyone happy, but there is certainly some truth in terms of over-exposure. There are so many (Hold’em) poker streams basically every day, and high stakes have almost become an expectation rather than a rare treat.

Does an average poker fan enjoy watching a final table of a $500 or a $1k WSOP event more than a $50k+ high roller? It’s hard to say, as it depends on who’s in the lineup, what the background stories are like, and how it all comes together.

It is true that some of the high stakes players, despite their great poker abilities, have somewhat lost that excitement that you can see in small stakes events. Or maybe they are better at hiding it. But a big part of the allure of watching poker is seeing that raw emotion in big spots and witnessing life-changing moments, when someone turns their $500 buy-in into high six figures.

PokerStars on FanDuel enjoys a very successful first full month in operation.

The newly-launched poker platform topped charts in terms of player traffic and generated quite a bit of revenue, coming second only to WSOP Online. PokerStars on FanDuel is clearly doing something right, as the revenue increased over a million compared to the last month, and the newly-minted network was able to reverse twelve consecutive months of decline.

It’s a pretty big day at the WSOP today.

There is a lot going on, with the $1,500 Monster Stack FT streaming later tonight, another high roller getting underway, and the $500 Colossus kicking off as well. What will the attendance be like for the Colossus this year? If Event #1 was any indicator, we could be looking at a massive field.

Would you like a piece of Allen Kessler in the $50k PPC at zero markup? Here’s your chance!

Is it a good deal or not – it’s not for us to say, but the the opportunity is there to sweat “Chainsaw” in one of the most prestigious events of the World Series of Poker.

Justin needs to up his game to top the Women WSOP All-Time Earnings Leaderboard.

It is clearly an error, but the one that we’ll have fun for a little while. Justin Saliba has somehow ended up on WSOP’s All-Time Earnings Leaderboard for women, and he is currently in third place.

It’s not AI or edited, it’s officially on the site, at least as of right now, but will likely be fixed soon, so it’s good to have this screenshot for posterity.

Daniel Negreanu breaks down his latest super-deep run.

Daniel’s new vlog brings some hand analysis and covers his thoughts and emotions as he’s making a super-deep run in a $600 WSOP event, reaching the final table and putting himself in a great spot to win his first bracelet of the summer.

Solana’s Chief Product Officer, Vibhu Norby, shares his thoughts on the new deal.

Apparently, this is the first time in 15 years that the WSOP broadcast has had a headline sponsor, and only the third in its 59-year history.

Do you think Martin Kahbrel gets too much air time?

Matt Savage thinks so! As much as we find Kahbrel annoying, he does make it entertaining (sometimes).

Did David Lappin manifest this?

We actually think he might have…!

Naoya Kihara has joined the ranks of poker legends by winning two WSOP bracelets in just four days, but he insists it is all just for fun.

As PokerOrg reports, Kihara has stepped away from professional poker and now works as a stock market trader in Tokyo. He was even thinking of making this his last full WSOP trip because of his day job commitments.

Still, back-to-back wins in the $10K NL 2-7 Lowball Championship and the $10K 7-Card Stud Championship have convinced him otherwise.

“But now I’ve won two bracelets this week, I think I have to come back for at least the next five years. To win a fourth!”

Brent Gregory takes down Event 28 for a $200K+ payday.

He snags his first WSOP bracelet and leaves Maurice Hawkins coming up short.

For the first time in the history of the series, players will be able to use cryptocurrency to buy into the World Series of Poker tournaments.

I don’t love this, but I guess it is a sign of the times… 🤷🏻‍♀️

Mike Holtz won his second WSOP bracelet at the $1,500 Super Turbo Bounty event, outlasting over 2,100 players for a $238,097 payday.

This victory, at the 2026 WSOP in Las Vegas, marks his first live bracelet after previously winning online.

Holtz admitted the live win came with extra satisfaction.

“I feel very vindicated. I feel like I won something on the big stage,” he told PokerNews. “It’s just crazy. I’m so happy.”

PokerOrg digs into community thoughts on the WSOP coverage.

On the one hand, I love the mothership 🛸, the Countdown shows, and how responsive the team is being on socials.

However, specific coverage is SO hard to find, there is no schedule we can follow, and it feels very haphazard at times.

It would be nice if there were a go-to place for all upcoming streams, even if it was subject to change, so we can all find what we are looking for.

Also, the timing of the livestreams for us in Europe is awful! The two-hour delay is killing us, and we now have to watch all coverage the next day, by which time the action is over and there are spoilers on X.

Tune in tonight for some more high roller action at the World Series.

It’s been one high roller stream after another the last few days. On the docket tonight is Day 2 action from $50k NLH High Roller 8-Handed.

Martin Jacobson is sharing some more thoughts on tournament structures.

These are some interesting ideas and definitely have some merit to them. Like everything else, there are some pros and cons, but it’s always good to hear different opinions from experienced players, as that’s how we get some of the best innovations.

Kristen Foxen is the main topic of the latest PokerNews Podcast.

After winning her sixth WSOP bracelet in one of the toughest fields imaginable, Foxen is the talk of the poker world – and deservedly so. If you simply can’t get enough of this story, tune in for the latest PokerNews Podcast for some more!

Corey Eyring is back with another vlog.

It’s been a little while since we’ve heard from Corey, but his new vlog is finally out, featuring some small stakes poker action, some sports betting, and a bit more.

Daniel Negreanu brings you a quick breakdown of all things WSOP.

In his new vlog, DNegs covers some of the biggest stories from the last couple of days before getting back into action, looking to make some big news headlines himself.

Shaun Deeb’s reign at the top continues, but Kihara is closing fast in this year’s WSOP POY race.

Shaun Deeb, who won the 2025 WSOP Player of the Year race, continues to lead the 2026 WSOP POY leaderboard. However, the gap is beginning to shrink.

After back-to-back victories in $10,000 Championship events, Naoya Kihara has quietly climbed to No. 2 and now sits just 50-60 points behind Deeb, putting the top spot well within reach.

That said, there’s still a long road ahead. With plenty of events remaining and the WSOP Paradise series later this year, the leaderboard could look very different by the time the race concludes.

What’s particularly impressive is Deeb’s ability to remain on top despite not having a major breakout performance in Las Vegas this summer. A strong WSOP Europe campaign has helped keep him ahead of the pack.

Elsewhere, Michael Leah is also firmly in contention, currently sitting sixth, while Kristen Foxen, fresh off winning her sixth WSOP bracelet, rounds out the top 10.

PokerStars on FanDuel Ontario live in Ontario.

The launch had been postponed again and again, leaving eager players stranded and GGPoker Ontario with a temporary boost. Now, with the new iPoker-powered platform up and running, PokerStars will be looking to win back its lost ground.

PokerStars is leaning into the summer vacation theme with its Jet Set Season, running June 7 to July 12.

This promo is all about tournaments with buy-ins for every budget, running alongside a 'Miles’ system that rewards participation and challenges.

The series is split into four weekly challenges, each with its own set of highlight events, like the $55 Jet Set Getaway with a $200k guarantee on June 14 and the $75 Jet Set Season Finale with $350k guaranteed on July 12.

Lex Veldhuis wins GGPoker World Festival title.

He takes the win for $68,147!

Britney was removed mid-game from the WSOP’s first live cash game stream after losing almost $100K, with little explanation from the WSOP.

She later explained on Instagram that her funds came from legal blackjack winnings and that she followed every instruction given to her before sitting down at the table.

She wrote,

“If there was genuinely a compliance concern, it should have been addressed before I was allowed to buy in and participate – not after the game had already begun and substantial amounts of money had already changed hands.”

Britney criticized the way the situation was handled, calling it “both confusing and unfair.” According to her, players deserve clear and consistent rules, not surprises after they’ve put serious money on the line.

For a split second, I thought it was actually the real Paris. In France.

Six WSOP bracelets later, Kristen Foxen looks to the future.

Kristen Foxen just won her sixth WSOP bracelet, marking the biggest score of her career. In her winner’s interview, Foxen talks about why representation matters at the tables and hopes her visibility encourages more young women to take a seat.

She sees herself as a role model for aspiring female poker players and believes that seeing someone like her succeed helps others believe they can do it too.

“I hope that future generations can look at my success and believe they can achieve the same.”

Apparently, playing your fourth live poker tournament is all it takes to win six figures and a WSOP bracelet.

Brayden Lou detoured to Vegas with his dad, bought into a $500 freezeout, and now has a better story than your entire family combined.

Thinking Poker’s 500th episode features none other than Erik Seidel, a player whose poker résumé stretches back to when backgammon was cool the first time around.

Seidel reflects on his early days at the Mayfair Club and his famous runner-up finish to Johnny Chan at his first WSOP. He also talks about adapting to the relentless changes in poker over the decades.

After dusting off his profits to Shaun Deeb in a rough hand, Andy did not let it shake him. He came back ready for action and managed to win a nice pot with a set of treys right off the bat.

10 poker stories so wild they sound like Hollywood scripts (but actually happened).

An incredible line up of stories from Anuj! There’s everything from Chris Moneymaker’s WSOP Main Event run, to Phil Ivey edge sorting, to Victoria Coren-Mitchel’s fear of flying.

Naoya Kihara won two WSOP bracelets in the same week.

Banning face coverings, hats and sunglasses good or bad for poker?

What do we think? I like Galen’s idea of banning face coverings, hats, and sunglasses for a third of tournaments.

June 08

Tune in for another high roller final table stream tonight.

It’s the conclusion of the $25k NLH High Roller 6-Handed event, with Sean Winter, a very accomplished player, looking to add a WSOP bracelet to his cabinet.

Talk about a misclick…

When an accidental call with a really bad hand turns into a big pot… These things happen in big tournaments, no way around it, and it looks like the AQ player took it pretty well. Is J-3 new J-4, though?

Brad Owen is back in action.

With so much focus on the tournament action these days, you can break up the routine with Brad’s latest vlog, featuring some high-stakes cash game action from California.

The action is underway in the $1,500 Big O event.

There are only a few dozen players remaining in the hunt for the bracelet and the first-place money of almost $390k

A hot take on the rake at the World Series of Poker.

This video has created some turmoil in the community, with most pro players not in agreement,. And so, the never-ending discussion continues.

Kristen Foxen is celebrating her big win!

Last night’s win such a huge achievement, but we just know there is so much more in the cards for her.

Allen Kessler comes up short once more.

The bracelet was once again within reach for Kessler, but the cards once more refused to cooperate when it mattered the most. Maybe next time?

Daniel Negreanu is going from high rollers to trenches – and he loves it.

He may have his preferences, but there is no doubt that Daniel Negreanu just loves everything about the World Series of Poker, and it shows – in this vlog and every other!

Caesars has agreed to be taken private by Fertitta Entertainment, owned by billionaire Tilman Fertitta, in a $17.6 billion all-cash deal.

The offer is $31 per share, which is almost 50 percent more than the stock price before rumors started flying. Fertitta will take on nearly $12 billion of Caesars’ existing debt, financed with a little help from ten different banks.

The combined company would run 60 casinos and gaming spots, at least until regulators step in. According to Legal Sports Report, past mergers have forced companies like Caesars to shed properties to avoid cornering local markets. For example, both Caesars and Fertitta already operate casinos in places like Atlantic City and Las Vegas.

GGPoker is giving Ontario players exclusive online qualifiers for two major WSOP events.

If you’re based in Ontario, you can play your way to the WSOP 2026 in Las Vegas or the debut of the WSOP Super Circuit Canada, which lands at Playground Poker Club in Quebec this August.

This marks the first time the Super Circuit is being held anywhere in North America. The festival is promising a C$5,000 Main Event with a record C$10 million guarantee, though the full schedule hasn’t dropped yet.

PokerStars Power Path tickets still up for grabs.

Tickets to PokerStars Open Malaga via the qualifying route, Power Path, are available until 6pm CET. Check out our Power Path or PokerStars Open guides for more information.

Unpopular WSOP opinions.

I mean, he’s not wrong…

Wow, WSOP signs Warner Bros. Discovery deal.

Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) and the World Series of Poker (WSOP) have agreed to a three-year deal that will see the WSOP broadcast across channels and platforms in Europe, Latin America, and Asia.

PokerStars Ontario is back, baby.

The online poker site returns under the PokerStars brand on FanDuel in Canada.

From satellite ticket to high stakes regular: Moneymaker keeps dealing out the surprises.

Chris Moneymaker shares his latest adventure on the felt, squaring off against Nik Airball and Rampage at the World Series of Poker.

How to lose at everything, by Rampage.

Ethan 'Rampage’ Yau just put in a candidate for the roughest session ever recorded on Poker Night in America. Over 127 hands, he played more than half of them, but didn’t win a single showdown.

Michael Mizrachi is making the impossible look routine at this year’s WSOP, at least according to PokerNews.

After registering late and losing most of his stack on his very first hand, Mizrachi was left with less than a big blind. Most players would already be halfway to the parking lot, but not 'The Grinder.’

Instead, he turned his 3,000 chips into a stack of 1,429,000, charging up the leaderboard with the same relentless style that made him a world champion. PokerNews calls it “vintage Mizrachi“—fearless, pedal-to-the-floor, and apparently allergic to elimination.

As the final day approaches, the field is left to wonder: Is it really a comeback if he does this every year?

Four days after completing a miracle comeback from one chip, Naoya Kihara has won another WSOP bracelet.

We have the first double bracelet winner of the year, and it’s Naoya Kihara. Just days after winning the $10,000 2-7 NL Lowball Single Draw Championship following an unbelievable comeback from a single chip, the Japanese poker pro has captured another title, this time in the $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship.

What makes the story even crazier is the timeline. It took Kihara nearly 14 years to win his second WSOP bracelet, but only four days to win his third. After one of the most remarkable comebacks you’ll ever see, he followed it up by topping a 130-entry field in Seven Card Stud and taking home more than $300,000.

An incredible run and one of the stories of the summer so far.

The final table of the $25,000 No-Limit Hold’em High Roller at the WSOP was stacked with some of the game’s most recognizable names.

Kristen Foxen took down the top prize, pocketing $1,773,083 and her latest bracelet, according to the official WSOP channel. Galen Hall finished runner-up, still banking over $1.1 million, with Biao Ding rounding out the top three.

The rest of the table didn’t exactly walk away empty-handed. Joey Weissman, Ignacio Moron, Zdenek Zizka, Ihar Soika, Giuseppe Calio, and Barak Wisbrod all scored six-figure payouts for their efforts. Not bad for a day’s work in Las Vegas.

Martin Kabrhel didn’t hang around long in the WSOP $25k High Roller.

According to PokerNews, he bought in on Day 2 but was out after a single hand when his pocket sixes met Nick Petrangelo’s ace-king.

Kabrhel joked about wanting a free afternoon, but the dealer had the final say as the ace hit the board. As he left, he quipped, “Okay, that’s it for today. One hand and one hand only. See you later, alligator. I really enjoyed this.”

It has not been an especially memorable WSOP for Kabrhel so far, with his best score a 28th place finish worth $15,879. The High Roller event itself drew 242 entries and a prize pool approaching $5.7 million, but Kabrhel will have to look elsewhere for his next deep run.

Kristen Foxen finally gets the WSOP bracelet she can brag about.

Kristen Foxen has finally ticked the last remaining box in her poker career according to her own standards. After years of winning bracelets in what she considered lesser events, she took down the WSOP $25K High Roller for $1.7 million and her sixth bracelet, outlasting a field that PokerNews described as “all the best pros in the world.”

“It feels like where I’m supposed to be and what I’m supposed to be doing. I’m just so blessed that I found poker, that I’m able to do this,” Foxen told PokerNews after her win.

Galen Hall made things interesting by coming into the final day with a monster chip lead, but ultimately Foxen was the last one standing. This marks her fourth seven-figure cash in the last year and the fourth-highest live tournament payout for a female player ever.

This is the first time hearing this story. So cool! WSOP Main Event runner-up Perry Green tells all to PokerOrg.

The three-time bracelet winner famously lost to Stu Ungar heads-up for the Main Event title in 1981. Now, aged 90, he’s still competing at the WSOP.

Teething problems still plague the World Series of Poker.

But, the team is working hard to fix all the problems.

WSOP and Poker Flops: when sharing gets you shut out.

Ivan’s recent piece dives into the dust-up between WSOP and Poker Flops, who found themselves blocked and copyright-claimed after posting short clips from the WSOP live streams. The Poker Flops team was not amused, calling out WSOP for old-fashioned thinking and saying it is hurting the game’s exposure.

Poker Flops responded with a harsh statement, calling out the WSOP for not keeping up with the times and limiting the game’s exposure with their “backward views.”

Ivan points out that while content distribution has been a thorny subject in poker, WSOP does put a lot of resources into producing these streams. Still, the debate over free exposure versus content control continues, with no easy answers in sight.

We would love to see this happen!

But Jeff Platt has a fair response to all the haters.

Krissy Foxen just did what?!
