July 11, the 46th day of the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP), was another day of action.
The biggest story of the day was the $10,000 Main Event, which completed its Day 6 action, leaving Kenny Hallaert leading a field of 57 Main Event Champion hopefuls.
There were also two bracelet winners. Ferenc Deak made the long-shot promise to his son that he would come home with a bracelet from the series. He did, winning Event #86: $1,000 Mystery Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha and earning $329,890 in the process.
The other bracelet awarded yesterday was for Event #88: $50,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold’em. This high roller event went to Khoi Le Nguyen, who beat a field of 252 entrants to earn $2,686,913 and his first gold WSOP bracelet.
Elsewhere at the series, the Mid-Stakes Main Event played through Day 2, the $1,979 Hall of Fame Bounty event had all but three bounties bagged, and the inaugural $3,000 T.O.R.S.E. kicked off.
Three Bounties Left In $1,979 PHOF Bounty Event
The Event #92: $1,979 Poker Hall of Fame Bounty No-Limit Hold’em event is a unique bounty event in which every Poker Hall of Famer in the field has a bounty equal to their induction year.
Day 1 of the event ended with Soichiro Hayashi in the chip lead with 630,000 in chips.
The field of 1,115 players is now down to 167. Only three hall-of-famers remain in contention with bounties to be bagged. They are Tom McEvoy (160,000) with a bounty of $2,013, Barry Greenstein (121,000) with a bounty of $2,011, and John Juanda (47,000) with a bounty of $2,105.
Other notables who will be back later today are Phil Hellmuth (66,000), Joao Simao (264,000), Ren Lin (208,000), and Ankush Mandavia (196,000).
Some of the Hall of Famers who had their bounties collected during Day 1 were Eli Elezra, Barbara Enright, Todd Brunson, Daniel Negreanu, Scotty Nguyen, and Erik Seidel.
The survivors will return today at 12 p.m with all eyes on the top prize of $311,349.

Nacho Barbero Closes In On Second Bracelet
Nacho Barbero has one gold WSOP bracelet to his name, but he's close to a second. Barbero is currently one of ten remaining players from the 1,384 entry field of Event #91: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed.
The prize pool of $1,837,260 has put $280,214 up top.
Kasparas Klezys is closest to claiming the prize with 6,900,000 in his stack. However, in a PLO tourney, there's no such thing as a huge edge and the chip rankings are pretty tightly packed.
There were 103 survivors in the Day 2 field of the event. Many of them fell during the day, among them were names like Erik Seidel, Robert Mizrachi, Ben Yu, Bob Slezak, and Josh Reichard.
The remaining ten players will return at 12 p.m. to play down to a winner on the two feature tables in the Horseshoe Event Center.

Loeliger and Hunichen Bag Day 1b Of $777 Lucky 7's
After Day 1b of Event #90: $777 Lucky 7's, the prize pool of the event is now $2,644,694 as the number of entries hits 3,890. Both of these numbers take the label "and counting" as there is still one more starting flight to go before they are finalized.
Hertsel Levy (3,405,0000), the Day 1a chip leader, has kept his top spot with the Day 1b chip leader, Gianluca Cabitza, taking second overall with 3,100,000 in his bag.
Andrew Dean (2,820,000) currently holds the third place spot in a field of 159 Day 1 survivors (and counting!).
Other players who found a bag included Chris Hunichen (965,000), Paulina "Poker Bunny" Loeliger (340,000), and previous bracelet winners Loni Hui (1,775,000), Joseph Roh (1,730,000), and Erik Cajelais (119,000).
Day 1c kicks off today at 10 a.m. with PokerNews' traditional live coverage beginning on July 13 with the start of Day 2.

Inaugural $3,000 T.O.R.S.E. Kicks Off
The inaugural Event #93: $3,000 T.O.R.S.E. brought in both quality and quantity with 522 entries many of whom are the best mixed game players in the world.
At the end of Day 1, Robert Rosengarten and David Prociak shared the chip leader position with 355,500 in each of their stacks. Prociak has three bracelets while Rosengarten has just six previous WSOP cashes.
Right behind them in third place is Ryan Hughes with 337,000.
T.O.R.S.E. is precisely the kind of mix that brings out the top players and sure enough among the bags we find names like James Obst (188,500), Viktor Blom (167,000), Alex Livingston (160,000), Chad Eveslage (156,000), Josh Arieh (137,000), and Mike Matusow (112,300).

What to Expect on Day 47 of the 2025 WSOP
Saturday, July 12, is Day 47 of the 2025 WSOP.
The current schedule has two bracelets being awarded, one new event kicking off, and further action on four other events, including, of course, Event #81: $10,000 Main Event World Championship. The Main Event will return at midday with a live stream on a one-hour delay.
Nacho Barbero will be back on the feature tables at midday to see if he can outlast the other nine players remaining in Event #91: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed.
That will be the first bracelet to be awarded on the day.
The second bracelet to be awarded will be Event #92: $1,979 Poker Hall of Fame Bounty No-Limit Hold’em in which three Hall of Famers will return while the rest of the remaining field tries to bust them for their bounties. Event #92 also returns at midday.
The only new event will be Event #94: $10,000 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed Championship kicking off at 1 p.m. This is one of the most prestigious NLH events outside of the Main Event and definitely one to watch!
The four returning events start with Day 1c of Event #90: $777 Lucky 7's. This kicks off early doors with a 10 a.m. start.
Late registration is available until around 5 p.m. This is the last starting flight of the event, which has a guaranteed first-place prize of $777,777.
Following that, Event #89: $3,000 Mid-Stakes Championship returns to play at 1 p.m.
With 219 players remaining, this event is expected to play ten more blind levels before quitting.
Last but not least is Event #93: $3,000 T.O.R.S.E., which returns for Day 2 of its action. Day 2 also begins at 1p.m. with David Prociak and Robert Rosengarten sharing the chip lead.
PokerNews will have live coverage of all of these events as they happen right here!
