Hellmuth Fires Away, But Gets Half

Level 5

Badeucey

Picking action up after the first draw, Phil Hellmuth bet from the small blind and got calls from the big blind and the cutoff, then patted his hand. The big blind drew two, while the cutoff drew three.

Hellmuth then bet again and received two more calls. He patted again, but this time his opponents drew one each.

Following that final draw, Hellmuth kept betting and got another pair of calls.

Hellmuth showed 76532 for a seven-six low, and a three-card seven. The big blind held 107643 for an inferior ten low, but a seven-six badugi to earn half the pot.

Level 6
2023 WSOP
2023 WSOP

In light of debate over the threat that real-time assistance (RTA) apps pose to live poker, World Series of Poker (WSOP) officials reiterated their rules for use of solvers at the poker table.

Players at the 2023 WSOP will be penalized if they are caught using or referencing a solver during a live hand. Additionally, the WSOP reserves the right to issue penalties to players who are using solvers between hands.

"If caught using RTA/GTO software during a hand, player will be subject to penalty up to and including DQ (disqualification) / trespass," WSOP said in a prepared statement. "We reserve the right to further penalize a player for using RTA/GTO in any other situation in our sole and absolute discretion. Players may continue to use their device to play wsop.com or use the Caesars Sportsbook app while in/out of a hand."
