Marco Johnson finally cracks 3rd WSOP bracelet, 22 final tables laterMarco Johnson finally cracks 3rd WSOP bracelet, 22 final tables later

Daniel Negreanu's latest vlog has just hit the YouTube airwaves – check it out below.

In this one, Negreanu does battle in the $25K PLO High Roller – but it doesn't exactly go according to plan

Negreanu's summer nemesis Alex Foxen got the better of him in two big pots, leaving the Canadian to rightfully bemoan his misfortune in key spots. 

After a brief venting session in the steam room, Negreanu refocuses. 

"I want to win. I want to compete. It's fun," he tells the cameras as he makes his way to register the $10K H.O.R.S.E.

"It's gonna come, you know. The results are gonna come. I'll have my moment in the sun."

Unfortunately for him, the $10K H.O.R.S.E. fails to deliver that moment and Negreanu ends the video on a less than positive note.

We're not entirely clear on what to expect from the WSOP livestream when it kicks off later today, but we'll do our best to theorize

The $10,000 Mystery Bounty NLH plays down to a winner today – and that's a lock to feature on the stream. With nine players remaining and $678K plus bounties for the winner, expect to see that final table play out in full. After streaming Days 1 and 2 of the event, it's only logical that the WSOP will see this one out. 

Hopefully the cameras can bring us action from one of the tables in the $3,000 Nine Game Mix. Shaun Deeb holds a massive chip lead and is looking to improve on an uncharacteristically cold summer.

And with only 25 players remaining in the $1,000 Seniors Championship, is it too much to ask for a little coverage of that event? Don't worry, we won't tell Jared Bleznick

It's another Friday at the WSOP – here's what to expect from the day. 

The $1,000 Seniors Championship restarts action with 25 players remaining. Homan Mohammadi leads the chips counts. 

The $25,000 PLO High Roller is down to just five remaining players. Eelis Parssinen, the Finnish four-card phenom, leads the pack with $2.1M up top for the eventual winner.

In the $10,000 Mystery Bounty NLH, Alex Anton leads over a field of nine remaining players, followed closely by WSOP Circuit crusher Josh Reichard

Is today the day Shaun Deeb breaks free of his curse ? We'll see, but it's looking good for the American as he holds a commanding lead over the remaining 21 players in the $3,000 9-Game Mix headed into the final stretch of play. 

We'll see Day 2 action in the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship. With 69 players remaining, the chip counts read like a who's who list of mixed game masters. Here's a few names still in the mix: Jesse Lonis, Scott Seiver, Patrick Leonard, Viktor Blom, Jennifer Harman, Chris Vitch, Nick Schulman, and Brian Rast

The $1,500 5-Card PLO rolls on to Day 2 as well. Japan's Suguru Nakajima leads the 76 remaining players. 

And last but certainly not least, the $50,000 High Roller PLO kicks off today – expect many familiar faces in the mix there.

Just a reminder….we’ve gotten to that point in the summer where 95% of people are buried. Expect to see some meltdowns on Twitter very soon!

The WSOP $25K PLO High Roller will crown a winner on Friday. 

5 of 451 players are still in with a shot, although Finland's Eelis Pärssinen has more than half the chips in play. Here's a quick guide to who's who on the final table.

Looking to buy $10,000 worth of @WSOP Main Event action this year from my followers. LMK if interested in selling.

Mocktails FTW? 

A Reddit post is heating up that asks the question: What drinks can you order at the table that resemble alcoholic drinks? 

If you're not factoring your choice of beverage into your table image, are you costing yourself EV (expected value), or EV (Eristoff Vodka)?

It's Day 25 of the 2026 WSOP. If you're tired, we get it. 

But handling fatigue is one of the key skills you're going to have to master. That's why we've got two fresh new articles looking at that very topic, from authors Jason Su (The Joy of Poker) and Alex Fitzgerald (The 100 Biggest Mistakes That Poker Players Make). Perfect bedtime reading.
