The alleged chip dumping scandal that occurred earlier this week in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Millionaire Maker event may have seemed egregious to many poker pros. But the players involved, if they did indeed collude, didn't make it nearly as obvious as the heads-up foes in a 2018 World Poker Tour (WPT) event.

Jesse Yaginuma won the $1,500 Milly Maker on Wednesday for over $1.2 million and an extra $1 million via a promotion from ClubWPT Gold. The bracelet is on hold as the WSOP investigates possible collusion during heads-up play against James Carroll, the runner-up who is to earn $1,012,320.

Is Taylor a Non-Believer?

Level 25

Pot-Limit Omaha

Esther Taylor raised from the button with KJ109 and Michael Mizrachi defended the big blind with K993.

"I'm never bluffing," said Mizrachi as Taylor mulled over her options.

"You are bluffing this time though," replied Taylor.

"Prove it," dared Mizrachi. "I might," responded Taylor before

In the end Taylor folded, and Mizrachi took in the pot.
