Day 1b of Event #86: $1,000 Mystery Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha is in the books. The second flight attracted 3,113 players to the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, but only 467 of them made it through to Day 2.
China's Pei Li (1,175,000) came out on top on Day 1b. Li has one bracelet to his name, which he won in 2022 when he triumphed in the $1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Bounty event. It seems like Li has a penchant for PLO bounty tournaments.
A whole host of stars joined Li in bagging up chips at the end of Day 1b. Pedro Rodriguez (982,000), Ludovic Geilich (918,000), and Rob Wazwaz (858,000) each finished in this flight's top ten.

For two decades, Tom Goldstein was at the top of the legal world. He argued more cases before the United States Supreme Court than almost any private attorney and founded SCOTUSblog, a legal blog that quickly became the go-to source for Supreme Court analysis. He lectured at Stanford University and Harvard University and regularly appeared on national news programs.
But Goldstein had another life. When he wasn’t arguing before Supreme Court justices, Goldstein was flying to Hollywood or Hong Kong and winning or losing millions in ultra-high-stakes poker matches. He played heads-up against California businessmen and foreign gamblers, at one point allegedly winning over $50 million in just a few sessions.
Goldstein’s luck turned in January 2025 when the US Department of Justice a federal grand jury initiated a 22-count indictment accusing the attorney of failing to report millions in poker winnings and diverting law firm funds to pay his personal poker debts.
In a new PokerNews video essay, we take a look at the life of Tom Goldstein and the high-stakes poker game that led to his federal indictment.
Here's a look at the latest chip update on the WSOP+ app.

“It was a spot where most people are more sane than me and wouldn’t have put their money in.”
Josh Reichard made one of the gutsiest decisions of the 2025 World Series of Poker so far, calling for his tournament life with nothing but ace-high on the stone money bubble of the $10,000 WSOP Main Event.
Already a 16-time WSOP Circuit ring winner and reigning MSPT Heart Poker Champion, Reichard came into the Main Event on a serious heater. He’d cashed in nine WSOP events this summer, including a third-place finish worth $702,360 in the controversial Millionaire Maker.
Here are the latest big stacks on Day 1b, according to the WSOP+ app.
