Level 22 : 6,000/12,000, 0 ante

Mike "mkspresident" Shin raised to 24,000 from the cutoff and Erica "huckcheevers" Lindgren three-bet to 36,000 from the button.

Action folded back to Shin who four-bet to 48,000 and Lindgren called to see a flop.

Shin led out for 12,000 and Lindgren tossed her last 1,875 in the middle.

Erica "huckcheevers" Lindgren:

Shin was ahead with top two-pair and the was no help to Lindgren as it took away her lo hand leaving her drawing to any ace, jack, ten or nine.

Unfortunately for Lindgren, the river paired the board ending her tournament in 30th place for $2,493.75.

WSOP History: Looking Back at the November (and October) Nines

Level 21 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

No stage in poker stood as a bigger goal for a tournament player than the final table of the WSOP Main Event. For years, that meant going to sleep knowing you had the chance of a lifetime, to go down in poker history in the next few days as the cameras captured your every bet, raise and fold.

All of that changed in 2008.

The year after Jerry Yang's Main Event victory was broadcast to all on ESPN's standard tape delay, organizers made a decision to try to increase the excitement and anticipation around the final table: after the final nine was reached, play would be paused. At that point, everyone left would go home with 9th-place money and the players would reconvene a few months later to play out the final table on a short tape delay.

That lasted until 2016, and this is the history of the November (and October) Nines.

Level 20 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

On Sunday, July 19, GGPoker held its first-ever WSOP bracelet events — part of a 54-event schedule spread out across July, August, and into September. Unfortunately, on a night where three bracelet winners were supposed to be crowned, two of the events ran into a critical bug and had to be suspended to next week.

The lightning-fast Event #34: $525 Super Turbo Bounty No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed — clocking in at a mere 3 hours and 15 minutes start to finish to make it the fastest-ever bracelet event — was unaffected by the technical issues and played out as normal. In total, 2,214 entries of $525 each were made to create a total prize pool of $1,107,000.

In the end, it was Shoma "pp_syon" Ishikawa of Japan writing history as GGPoker's first-ever online bracelet winner, as well as the third person from Japan after Naoya Kihara and Takahiro Nakai to claim the coveted prize. Ishikawa is an emerging talent from the land of the rising

Ishikawa may have been GGPoker's first-ever bracelet winner, but he's not the last. As the series rolls on, several others have been crowned.
