2014 Main Event Winner Martin Jacobson Still Alive, Looking for 2nd Bracelet in Event #62

Level 20 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Day 2 of Event #62: $5,000 No-Limit Hold’em Six-Handed at the 2025 World Series of Poker has come to a close at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.

After registration closed, the total number of entries reached 1,168, which created a prize pool of $5,372,800. This also means that the winner will take home$855,515 and of course, the WSOP gold bracelet.

A six-handed event with a $5,000 buy-in will always attract many top No-Limit players, and this event was no different. The field today saw notable players like Adrian Mateos, who went for an ambitious bluff that did not work, Brad Owen, Jonathan Little, Jesse Lonis, and David Peters fall short of the money.

It feels like it wouldn't be an event at the 2025 WSOP without Martin Kabrhel making an appearance. His stay in this event was relatively brief, as he also hit the rail short of the money.

The bubble was burst when Alexander Sokolovsky was forced all in from the small blind just before a break. After he finished in 177th place, the remaining 176 players would each take home at least a minimum of $9,957.

Some recognizable names who busted inside of the money include Mike Holtz, Dimitar Danchev, Justin Young, Stephen Song, Lou Garza, Patrick Leonard.

Also cashing was Nate Silver, who is well known for his election modelling and forecasting.

A known player who had a nice spin up today was Niall Farrell. He told one of his tables that he was running good early on, and carried that throughout the day to be top ten in the end of day chip counts. Farrell has won poker's "Triple Crown", including one WSOP bracelet, and surely would love to add another to his mantle in this event.

A player who gained a lot of momentum through Erwann Pecheux. Pecheux was the chip leader for large stages of the end of the day, including busting two-time bracelet winner Joey Couden.

A player who is known to most of the poker world still hanging around is 2014 WSOP Main Event winner Martin Jacobson. Jacobson will be playing in the Event Center at the Horseshoe, which has his picture hanging on the wall to celebrate that win. He is one of the shorter stacks with just 505,000. However, if you remember the 2014 Main Event final table, Jacobson went in eighth in chips, and managed to win, so you certainly can't count him out.

Play will resume tomorrow at noon local time at level 21, with the blinds starting at 10,000/25,000 with a 25,000 big blind ante for the remaining 54 players. Stay tuned to PokerNews for updates from this tournament, and every bracelet event at the 2025 WSOP.
