For each of the 2021 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Online bracelet events, either Jeff Platt or PokerNews will be streaming early play up to the final table, which will then air exclusively on the PokerNews Twitch Channel. Early action of this event is streaming now, so be sure to tune in to see who walks away with the WSOP gold bracelet!

“I am thrilled to team up with PokerNews to present coverage of the 2021 WSOP Online,” said Platt, who is a co-host of the PokerNews Podcast. “We learned last year that the prestige of bracelet events draws an incredibly passionate audience on Twitch. I can’t wait to interact with that audience again as we crown poker’s newest champions.”

Ye "yuan365" Yuan Looking to Close the Series With WSOP Gold

Ye "yuan365" Yuan, also known as Tony Yuan, has a tiny amount of cashes on his Hendon Mob profile, with just $6,774 in career tournament earnings outside of one particularly big outlier. Yuan, a Ph.D Candidate of Mathematics and Probability at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, overcame the odds and made the final table of the 2020 WSOP $10,000 Main Event, after pushing through a field of 705 entrants.

“I still can’t believe it." Yuan told PokerNews about his run to the final table. "I don’t know how I made it, but someone I did. I was quite lucky to have some big hands. I won a coinflip when short-stacked with pocket nines against my opponent’s ace-jack offsuit." Yuan also was confident in the transition to the live final table, as opposed to online, saying, "I’m a live guy. I think my live play is better than my online play. I can read people.”

Yuan finally succumbed in fifth-place, losing a flip with ace-ten to the pocket fours of Joseph Hebert, but the $286,963 payday certainly helped put a big dent in his college tuition. Now, with another summer of online events waiting, Yuan will be looking to make another deep today after notching two final tables already this series.

Spinella Leaves Gifford to Re-Enter

Level 4 : 50/100, 0 ante

Krista "Pollux" Gifford moved all in for her last 1,325 from the cutoff and Anthony "Nowb3Athat" Spinella called from the small blind.

Krista "Pollux" Gifford: {10-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Anthony "Nowb3Athat" Spinella: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

It was a race but Gifford needed to improve. That proved easier said than done as the board ran out {6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{8-Spades} to give Spinella a full house.

Gifford was felted on the hand but opted to re-enter.

Eric "8Bracelets" Van Auken raised from the cutoff and then called the 1,392 three-bet jam Elijah "Bestgetlucky" Garcia made from the small blind.

Elijah "Bestgetlucky" Garcia: {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Eric "8Bracelets" Van Auken: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

Garcia was behind holding two overs but neither appeared on the {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop.

The {3-Diamonds} turn was a bad sight for Garcia as it left him drawing dead and the {4-Diamonds} river eliminated him from the tournament.

Through August 3rd, the World Series of Poker (WSOP) will begin hosting daily online gold bracelet events on WSOP.com. There will be 33 bracelets awarded over 32 days, and PokerNews is excited to announce we’ll not only be live reporting all the action but also offering poker fans daily live streams.

Every day, viewers at home will have access to watching the biggest names hunt for bracelets. In conjunction with PokerNews, Jeff Platt will host early action from each tournament at twitch.tv/jeffplatt, starting around the money bubble each day and taking players all the way to the final table.

“I am thrilled to team up with PokerNews to present coverage of the 2021 WSOP Online,” said Platt, who is a co-host of the PokerNews Podcast. “We learned last year that the prestige of bracelet events draws an incredibly passionate audience on Twitch. I can’t wait to interact with that audience again as we crown poker’s newest champions.”

After Platt’s streams, coverage will then shift to twitch.tv/pokernews where PokerNews’ own Jesse Fullen will cover final table action alongside a rotating cast of co-hosts including Alec Torelli, Ryan Laplante, Jesse Sylvia, KL Cleeton, Rampage Poker, and Jaman Burton, among others. The streams will also be featured on YouTube and Facebook.

“WSOP Online will certainly be the biggest online series of the year in the USA. We’re thrilled PokerNews has again stepped up to provide fans a way to follow the action,” said Ty Stewart, Executive Director of the WSOP. “Jeff Platt’s personal streams were a highlight of last year’s online series and we have no doubt the PokerNews final table streams will be an entertaining watch.”
