2026 WSOP Day 30 - ODB Bonus Player Schuyler Thornton Looking for PLO Points; Reichard at It Again!
It’s Day 30 of the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP)!
Just nine players remain in Event #50: $1,500 Millionaire Maker, though none of them are 25K Fantasy nor ODB Bonus players.
Over in Event #57: $1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha, 23 players from a 3,763-entry field return for Day 3 action, though the last 25K Fantasy player, Gary Benson (Team Trump Power), fell right away. That leaves ODB Bonus player Schuyler Thornton as the sole fantasy player remaining.
For Day 4 of Event #60: $50,000 Poker Players Championship (PPC), 17 players returned in the money. However, both Maksim Pisarenko (Team Glue Factory) and Phil Hellmuth (Team Fleyshamn) exited quickly, which leaves Jesse Lonis (Team Baldes & Shades), Chris Brewer (Team Blez/NGNF), Chris Hunichen (Team Blades & Shades), Josh Arieh (Team DNegs), Maxx Coleman (Team Browndog), Alex Livingston (Team Torching with TJ), Jason Mercier (Team Verderamo), Nick Guagenti (Team Browndog), Phil Ivey (Team Verderamo), Paul Volpe (Team Fleyshman), and Benny Glaser (Team Chocolate Factory) as the remaining 25K Fantasy players till in contention.
In Day 2 of Event #62: $2,500 NLH, 17 players from a 1,736-entry field remain, including Josh Reichard (Team Torching with TJ) and ODB Bonus player Myles Mullaly, the only two players with fantasy implications remaining.
How to Follow the Action
Remember, PokerNews has been tracking $25K Fantasy players in our live updates and has even made it simple to follow the action by tagging all players with either a 25K Fantasy or ODB badge. That allows you to utilize our chip count filter option to follow only those players (just tick the 25K Fantasy or ODB badge); what’s more, each blog will have a “25K Fantasy” tab that if you click all you will see are hands played by 25K Fantasy players.
