2026 World Series of Poker May 26th - July 15th

D'Ambrosio exit walk covered by ESPN.

5 years from now we will have 21 year olds wearing Meta Glasses to detect what cards each player most likely has and their tells/bluffs etc

that and tanking until whatever solver they have tells them what to do

10:05pm Vegas time, 1382 left, Ordet in 10th, Hossein Ensan in 11th.

I doubt anyone doubles up Ensan with a four-barrel holding T2o this time, but you never know.

All the tables will have clocks by then. All the tables in Wendover already do. Imagine Poughkeepsie Park having nicer tennis courts than Flushing Meadows.

Why does "Yo Viral" squint his eyes and like blink non-stop in a hand like a fluttering. Like he can barely see/squinting
What the hell is he doing

I dont know why he does it but it's his thing. They made fun of him for it a lot on Game of Gold.

Aaron Kupin, Artur Martirosan, Steven Chidwick, Brian Yoon , Kristen Foxen 5 of 8 my fantasy wsop2026 players, make itm main event. Nice job)

It's so god damn strange. It's the oddest thing I've seen someone do while in a hand I think. Including Seiver's old thing where he'd cup his face and use it as like an air sick bag.

Also the Dealer-Cam is amazing in its stupidity. What can we do to revolutionize poker content and really draw people in? What if we put a camera on the dealer so we see what he sees as he pitches the cards and looks at the players... ELECTRIC!

I changed my mind and took your advice today and had 3 carne asadas tacos with flour wrap with some chips and salsa. Though there was a long line and I only was able to down 2 of the carne asadas on break, it was worth it. So thank you for the suggestion. I finished the final one at the next break.

Fortunately guys, I did indeed survive day 3 with over100bb deep. The app was saying that I'm currently in 136th place which isn't too shabby. Although for some reason it is no longer showing chip counts. Maybe they'll fix that by morning. Anyways, I want y'all to know that I 3bet A5s in BB versus EP opener. He ended up 4 betting and I almost ripped it all-in, but I didn't feel all that great about it and ended up folding. I kind of felt bad that maybe I had chickened out a bit, but the dude did look pretty comfortable so I don't know if I can't fault myself too much. He did end up telling me that he had KK and would have called so I almost put myself in a 33% chance of busting, but didn't.

Another hand that happened was I had QQ in BB. BU opened, I 3bet, and he jammed w/ AKo, I called. We were both about 50BBs deep and I fortunately got lucky and won the flip. This is the first time that I have had to flip in this tournament and I had about a 47% chance of basically being crippled in terms of chips so I am very lucky. There was another time where I had QQ BB v EP 50BB opener and he 4 bet jammed me, but since he was 50bbs which is under 60BBs my anti-nit chart says not too fold. So I called and he had AA, but I got lucky. I don't consider that a flip though, because I was a huge dog. Either way lady luck has been on my side.

Of course, I have also been playing what I perceive to be good poker as well. I've made some pretty ballsy plays that have worked out. I'd say most of my bluffs have gotten through which is also lucky in and of itself. I can't say that most people in my position would have taken the lines I have so I believe those plays have contributed greatly to my success thus far.

Only 6 ppl need to bust for me to make the money so hopefully I don't end up getting KK versus AA, because that would just suck so bad. I'm in a really good spot though.

As usual, I met a lot of cool poker players today. Damn, there are some really interesting poker players out there.

Nice updates, good luck!

Good luck! Keep the updates coming! You have 8 players with 4bbs or less and 52 with 10bbs or less, so it’s probably 6 or less hands to the money.

Thanks. I couldn't remember where I saw his stupid face before.

GLGL Godson.

Always weird to look at the rankings and recognize people from out of nowhere. I used to play in college home games with the guy 4th in chips. Coincidentally, when my wife and I were in the hospital shortly before our kid was born, we had the TV on and the same dude was in a commercial. My wife thought I was messing with her when I told her I knew that guy. Anyway, GL Rob, too.

Congrats on the excellent day 3, and good luck today making the money and chipping up as the post-bubble shovefest takes place.

Last year he increased his stack by at least 20% over the first eight hands they played four-handed before calling it for the night. IIRC he won 6/8 and never showed one. Then heads up Wos claws back to almost 33% then can’t let go of K2, then plays the best hand weakly before paying off Mike’s 83nd flush of the past three days.

Shouldn’t take more than 3-4 hours.

I'll take FT of
