Level 8 : Blinds 0/0, 1,000 ante

8♠10♥7♠7♣8♣
10♦6♣K♠A♠A♣

Benjamin Jackson fired a bet out for 12,000 on the flop with 10♣10♠7♥8♥, Gang Zhao raised to 30,000 in middle position with 6♥6♠3♠7♦, Joao Simao announced "all in" for 20,000 with K♥2♦K♦4♦, and Jackson put the rest of his stack in to call.

The dealer dealt the turn and river, which gave Jackson a full house on the top and bottom boards. However, he did not scoop due to Simao's larger full house on the bottom.

Zhao's trip sevens on the top board and full house on the bottom board were no good.

Has This Unsung Poker Star Been the Top WSOP Performer Since 2015?

Jon Sofen

Level 6 : Blinds 0/0, 600 ante

Only one player has won seven World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets in the past 10 years of live WSOP events, excluding the COVID year (2020). No, it isn't Shaun Deeb, nor is it Jeremy Ausmus or Phil Hellmuth.

This poker pro doesn't get the mainstream attention he probably deserves. While Hellmuth, Daniel Negreanu, and Phil Ivey get most of the headlines, this individual often flies under the radar. But he's been so dominant at the WSOP for years that the poker world — not just the hardcore crowd — should be made aware of his historic accomplishments.
