2025 WSOP Day 36: Phil Hellmuth Closes In On 18th WSOP Bracelet
Table Of Contents The 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) continued at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas on July 1, the 36th day of this exciting festival. Six events played out while a wind and dust storm engulfed Sin City. When that dust had settled, literally, two players had captured gold bracelets, while four other bracelet-awarding events edged closer to awarding theirs. You’ve heard of the poker phrase “a chip and a chair,” right? Well, what about two-thirds of a big blind and a chair? Michael Wang was down to such an amount after doubling up Erik Seidel. Despite being all but guaranteed to be eliminated, Wang embarked on an epic comeback and ultimately came out on top to take down Event #74: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship for $1,394,579 and his third bracelet.
Michael Wang Completes One of WSOP’s Greatest Comebacks in $10K PLO
Table Of Contents The phrase “a chip and a chair” has been commonplace among tournament poker players for decades, referencing Jack Straus’ 1982 Main Event victory after being left with a single chip. Longtime tournament grinder Michael Wang found himself in a similar position yesterday after doubling up Poker Hall of Famer Erik Seidel in a hand that left Wang with just 65,000. Down to his last five chips, worth two-thirds of a big blind at the time, Wang was all in automatically the next hand just from posting the big blind. His elimination seemed all but guaranteed.
Negreanu Denied as Aaron Kupin Wins First Bracelet in Mixed Big Bet
Table Of Contents All eyes were on Event #76: $2,500 Mixed Big Bet at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) on Tuesday as Poker Hall of Famer Daniel Negreanu chased his eighth bracelet, requiring the tournament to move to the feature table for an emergency stream. Negreanu, who was at his fifth final table of the summer, came short as he finished in fourth place before Florida’s Aaron Kupin defeated heads-up opponent Marco Johnson to win $206,982 and his first bracelet.
Quads on the River Cracks Mintzys Set of Aces for Gross Bad Beat at WSOP
Ben Mintz, aka “Mintzy,” on Tuesday, took one of the dirtiest bad beats we’ve seen all summer at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP). The Barstool Sports personality, thanks to a one-outer on the river, is out of Event #75: $1,000 Mini Main Event on Day 2. He earned a small cash but was devastated by the manner in which he exited the tournament. Rough Way to Go Out Mintzy picked up pocket aces in a hand, a welcome sight for the short-stacked player trying to build a stack to make a run at the final table in a 10,794-entrant field. He’d get those aces all-in preflop against a bigger-stacked opponent holding pocket eights. The flop came out K*♦8♦A♦*, giving both players a set.
BREAKING: Daniel Negreanu Reaches Fifth Final Table of 2025 WSOP
Table Of Contents Daniel Negreanu has had a stellar 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) and “Kid Poker” isn’t slowing down. Negreanu just reached his fifth final table of the summer in Event #76: $2,500 Mixed Big Bet. Negreanu entered the third and final day of the Mixed Big Bet event with 83 big blinds, good to be tied second in chips with Marco Johnson and within reach of chip leader Aaron Kupin. He held onto those chips throughout the first hour of play and now finds himself at the final table again second in chips.

Gambledore Throws GTO Out the Window at Triton Poker Super High Roller
The poker community was captivated by the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series in Monte Carlo this month, with Vladimir Korzinin stealing the spotlight on the glamorous French Riviera.

WPT Championship Awakens Spirit of Aussie Poker Legend James Obst
James Obsts WPT Australia Championship victory had all the hallmarks of a storybook triumph. The 34-year-old from Melbourne tore through the competition to secure a title on Australian soil, hopping on a two-hour northbound flight to attend the event at Star Gold Coast, where he would go on to win AUD $585,359 ($398,488) and the third major live poker title of his career. Obst is more than 15 years removed from his explosion into the poker consciousness, as a teenage crusher of online poker. Between COVID lockdowns and aspirations towards professional tennis, Obst went more than three-and-a-half years without cashing a live poker tournament, and even then limiting himself to some brief summer stretches.
