Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

There was a raise to 19,000 from under the gun and Sean Winter three-bet to 150,000, leaving just a few chips behind. Sergio Fernandez four-bet shoved all in on the button and the action folded back to Winter who called.

Sean Winter: A♦Q♥ All in
Sergio Fernandez: J♥J♦

Fernandez looked to his right at Winter as the cards came out and Winter agreed to announce the cards. "Four, four, deuce," Winter said as the 4♥4♦2♦ flop hit the felt.

"Queen," he continued in a very monotone voice which got Fernandez to whip his head around and find out that it was the 10♥ on the turn. The river was the 6♦ and Fernandez held on to eliminate Winter just before the dinner break.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

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.
