For the second time in three years, Nicholas Rigby was eliminated on Day 6 of the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event, this time for losing a race on the featured table.

The Pittsburgh area poker player who was one of the more entertaining characters in the field, went out in 131st place ($67,700) in the largest Main Event ever (10,043 entries). He finished 52nd in 2021, and like this year, spent much of his final few sessions seated at the PokerGO live-stream tables.

Yaroslav Ohulchanskyi opened for 200,000 from middle position and was called by Steven Spunt and Alec Torelli in the blinds.

The J♦10♦7♠ flop checked through to the 7♦ turn. Spunt bet 450,000 and only Torelli called.

The 6♦ completed the board and Spunt quickly check-folded when Torelli bet 700,000.

The action folded to Diego D'Aquilio, who opened from middle position for 200,000. Both Jan-Peter Jachtmann in the hijack and John Racener in the big blind made the call.

The flop came A♠8♠3♣ and Racener checked to D'Aquilio, who continued for 375,000. Only Jachtmann called. On the J♠ turn D'Aquilio took a few seconds before moving all in for 2,285,000 and Jachtmann went deep in the tank.

After several minutes of thought, Jachtmann rolled over the A♥ to show the big fold and D'Aquilio scooped the pot.

Heads up on a 7♥9♥8♣ flop with around 1,000,000 already in the pot, Matthew Wantman checked to Daniel Vampan, who bet 500,000 from the button.

Wantman then moved all in for 1,700,000 from the small blind and Vampan ripped off his headphones and kneeled down on his seat as he tanked for several minutes.

"Will you tell me later? I would tell you," he asked Wantman before folding as the two players continued discussing the hand while Wantman stacked up the pot.

Picking up the action partway through the hand, Benjamin Grise from middle position was all in and at risk against Daniel Vampan in the big blind.

Benjamin Grise: K♦K♠
Daniel Vampan: J♣J♦

Grise was well ahead and that remained the case on the 10♦6♠A♦ flop. The Q♠ turn changed little besides swapping Vampan's outs, and the Q♥ river confirmed a full double-up for Grise.

Aditya Systla had previously lost more than half his stack and then got in preflop what he had left, seven blinds, with K♦J♣. Artem Metalidi had him dominated with the A♥K♠ and the ace-high remained in the lead all the way on a Q♠8♦5♣9♣5♦ runout.

Andrew Dea three-bet to 500,000 from middle position before Mitchell Halverson shoved for 1,950,000 under the gun. Dea tanked for a moment before calling.

Andrew Dea: J♦J♥
Mitchell Halverson: A♣K♠

Dea took out his phone and began filming the action as Halverson spiked top pair on the A♠9♦5♦ flop to take the lead. The K♥ turn gave him two pair, and Halverson secured the double up on the 6♣ river.

"Got my heart racing," Dea said as he handed over the pot. "That was fun."

Jack O'Neill had a big pile of chips pushed in front of him after seeing off Ryan Brown. O'Neill briefly recapped the hand to PokerNews.

O'Neil said he opened in the cutoff and called when Brown three-bet from the small blind.

O'Neill then called for 600,000 on the Kx6x5x flop, bringing the pot to about 3,000,000.

On the 10x turn O'Neill called another bet of 1,100,000, and he called when his opponent jammed for 2,500,000 on the 4x river.

Brown had AxQx for ace-high while O'Neill had a set with his 10x10x.

Jose Aguilera had doubled with K♣Q♥ on a board of 9♥8♥8♦Q♦Q♣ as an ace of Yaroslav Ohulchanskyi was not enough to deal the final blow.

Soon after, Tinay Aksoy was ousted by Alec Torelli who held the best hand with Q♣9♠ for a flush on the 10♠6♠3♠7♥Q♠ runout, which beat the Ax8x of Aksoy that had just been mucked.
