Reigning World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event champion Jonathan Tamayo flipped his way into this year's championship event, meaning he won't even have to put up the $10,000 buy-in to defend his title.
Tamayo announced on Sunday that he won a WSOP Online $160 All-In Flipament, a flip-and-go-style event that puts players all-in blind and that needs 64 players to run, according to Kevin Mathers.
Tamayo demonstrated his luck a year ago when he navigated the largest WSOP Main Event field in history to win $10 million. The longtime poker pro from Texas proved luck is still on his side in 2025.
"I won the 3pm one it seems," Tamayo wrote on X.
Biao Ding limped in from the small blind with J♣10♥8♥5♣ and Manuel Stojanovic checked from the big blind with Q♣10♣7♣2♠.
Both players checked the flop and turn leading to a final board of Q♥4♣3♠5♠K♦. Ding bet 700,000 and Stojanovic called with just second pair to win the hand.

Action at the final table is back underway.
The remaining eight players have taken their seats at the main feature table, and action is back underway.
The PokerGO stream begins at 6 p.m., and updates will be provided on a 60-minute delay to match the stream. Stay tuned for all the action.
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.
The players are taking a 60-minute break now and will return at 5 p.m. local time for the PokerGO stream.
There are 25 minutes remaining in the level.
