2025 World Series of Poker
“I probably played better than the last three I won. Everything went my way this tournament. I was always at the top of the leaderboard, never really got short, and probably played my best overall.”
That's what Michael Mizrachi had to say after he cruised to victory in Event #66: $50,000 Poker Players Championship.
Already sharing the record for most $50,000 Poker Players Championship victories with Brian Rast, Mizrachi now stands alone after capturing his historic fourth title on Saturday at the 2025 World Series of Poker. "The Grinder" conquered the 107-entry field, earning $1,331,322 from the $5,162,750 prize pool and further cementing his legacy as the event's most dominant force.
Jesse Yaginuma and James Carroll, alleged to have participated in a chip-dumping scheme, will receive their seven-figure payouts from the World Series of Poker (WSOP). But the winner won't take home the gold bracelet, per a tweet.
The poker pros with over $9 million in combined live tournament cashes were accused of colluding during heads-up play in the $1,500 buy-in Millionaire Maker event to allow Yaginuma, who stood to win an extra $1 million bonus, to win the bracelet. Poker players immediately cried foul on social media, pointing to numerous questionable hands that led many to believe chip dumping occurred.
Alex Foxen left the Horseshoe on a Day 3 dinner break on Monday at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) to take his seat in another tournament across town that was approaching the money bubble.
The high roller traveled a mile up the Strip to Wynn Las Vegas, where Day 2 in the $10,400 buy-in Wynn Summer Championship took place. He bagged a stack on a Day 1 flight and played briefly early in the Day 2 session before returning to the WSOP for Day 3 of Event #74: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship.
The World Series of Poker (WSOP) has officially launched its new WSOP+ app for the 2025 series in Las Vegas, promising to dramatically improve the player experience by reducing wait times and streamlining event access.
