Erick Torres

Level 21 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Aram Oganyan opened from under the gun for 1,000,000 holding A♣10♠. Landon Tice woke up with A♥J♠ and called.

Oganyan checked the flop of 7♥7♣J♥ before Tice asked for the rest of his stack, betting 540,000. Oganyan called to put his tournament at risk.

The 10♥ on the turn gave Oganyan some slim hope, but the 6♦ sent him to the rail. Oganyan earned $257,201 for his sixth-place finish.

The action folded around to Chris Moorman in the small blind who announced all in. Aram Oganyan had just 270,000 in front of him in the big blind and called it off.

Aram Oganyan: A♠3♠ All in
Chris Moorman: 9♠2♠

The board ran out Q♠3♣3♦J♦2♣ and Oganyan got an immediate double-up to stay alive for now.

A couple of hands later, Oganyan moved all in for 620,000 on the button and Blaz Zerjav called from the big blind.

Aram Oganyan: K♣8♠ All in
Blaz Zerjav: 6♠6♥

The flop came 10♠8♥7♠ and Oganyan took the lead with a pair of eights. The Q♣ on the turn and the A♥ on the river gave Oganyan another double up to get back in the mix.

Jared Bleznick opened to 325,000 in the cutoff with K♥10♥ and Paulius Vaitiekunas defended from the big blind with Q♥8♣. The flop came J♣9♥3♣ and Vaitiekunas checked to Bleznick who continued with a bet of 350,000. Vaitiekunas check-raised to 850,000 and Bleznick called.

The turn brought the 6♠ and Vaitiekunas led out with a bet of 550,000. Bleznick still called and the Q♠ completed the board. Vaitiekunas checked after making top pair and Bleznick shoved all in for 2,280,000 with the nuts. Vaitiekunas went into the tank for a minute and then called.

Level 21 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

PokerNews' Brad Whitehouse captured a hand on Saturday that might end up being the rarest we'll see all summer at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP). At the very least, the rarest chop pot.

Gus Hansen and Dzmitry Urbanovich battled for a hefty pot on Day 2 in Event #23: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship with 35 out of 127 players remaining. The pot ended in a chop, but it left future Poker Hall of Famer Nick Schulman in awe.

"I've never seen that before," Schulman, who has seen nearly everything at the poker table, was overheard saying as he glanced at the tabled cards. "Wow, that's an amazing one."

In poker, like in life, they say records are meant to be broken.

But sometimes, someone sets a milestone that just feels impossible to top. Whether it’s because of insane skill, perfect timing, a bit of luck, or a mix of all three, the World Series of Poker has seen some feats over the years that seem like they’ll never be matched.

However, while all records may eventually fall, these achievements are currently some of the most jaw-dropping in WSOP history. Will any of them ever be broken? Only time will tell. For now, though, here are the most incredible WSOP records that will (probably) never be broken.
