The ultimate cooler at the Main Event.

With just 17 players left, Romain Lewis picks up pocket kings, and things are looking good. Until Greg Mueller delivers the bad news…

Who is Luke Jumalon, the 22-year old with a big stack in the Main Event?

Jeff Platt caught up with Luke’s father to find out more about his poker background and what he is like away from the table. The 22-year old built up quite a stack and he is in a great position to lock up one of the spots at the final table.

Will Givens show is over.

He certainly brought some flare to the table, but, unfortunately, Will Givens’ run in the Main Event is over.

The 2026 Main Event is down to two tables.

Three players have already been eliminated, and the remaining 18 have come together to form the final two tables. Hossein Ensan, the 2019 champion, is still in the running.

This may be old news, but Michelle Chin’s historic bracelet win deserves more attention.

Women still represent only a small fraction of the tournament field. While it’s already uncommon to see a woman win a WSOP bracelet in an open event (with Kristen Foxen being a notable recent exception), it’s even rarer to see one take down a non-NLHE variant, especially Triple Draw.

Late last month, Michelle Chin won the $1,500 Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw. According to PokerNews, she became the first woman in 11 years to win a mixed-games bracelet. She earned just over $160,000 from the $872,167 prize pool and became only the second woman this year to win an open-event bracelet.

Ironically, this comes during a year that has seen record participation from women at the WSOP. Pokerfuse exclusively reported that 431 women entered this year’s Main Event, the highest number on record, following a record-breaking Ladies Championship earlier in the series.

Despite those encouraging milestones, Chin’s achievement received surprisingly little attention, even though it marked the first time in more than a decade that a woman won an open mixed-games bracelet.

Well done, Michelle Chin.

The WSOP top brass on how they hope to return poker to prime time viewing whilst growing audiences. I love the sentiment, but it seems there is a long way to go, as everyone is struggling to find the WSOP content they want, with or without ESPN.

Michael Mizrachi’s fifth day at the WSOP wasn’t just another slow grind. According to the official coverage, the day was a whirlwind of wild hands, unexpected calls, and more than a few close shaves.

The video shows Mizrachi navigating a minefield of tricky spots. He gets involved in big pots, finds himself on the wrong end of some tough calls, and still somehow claws his way through.

Did this 15 minute tank during the WSOP Main Event cause the addition of shot clocks being added?

Way to ruin it for everyone else.

This is an outlandish position to take, if you ask me. Kabhrel may be on the spectrum, but meth? Really? Let’s do better!

Question. WHY is WSOP Main Event coverage still so hard to find?

Honestly, all interviews with big-name pros say the WSOP coverage on ESPN will grow the game. But no one in America, or outside of it, seems able to find ANY streams of coverage without it being an absolute ball ache.
