René-Charles Angelil, son of Canadian singer Celine Dion, is singing his own tune deep in the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event.
The 24-year-old offspring of an iconic songstress entered Thursday's Day 5 session in the $10,000 buy-in tournament with over 100 big blinds, with 522 players remaining. He has as strong a chance at winning the $10,000,000 first-place prize as anyone still standing.
Angelil doesn't just come from musical roots. His late father, René Angelil, was an avid poker player with over $750,000 in live tournament cashes, according to The Hendon Mob. Daniel Negreanu told PokerNews that the elder Angelil, who married Dion in 1994, would often stop into Bobby's Room at Bellagio to play high-stakes cash games while his wife performed at nearby Caesars Palace.
The board already read 3♠K♦10♣5♣ when Michael Mcnicholas bet 330,000 and David Battaglia replied by going all in. Mcnicholas snap-called:
David Battaglia: A♠Q♠10♠10♦
Michael Mcnicholas: A♣Q♥Q♣J♣
The 9♠ landed on the river to give the straight to Mcnicholas who took down the pot and busted Battaglia.

Action folded to Clayton Fletcher, who raised the pot to 85,000 from the cutoff. Jonathan Bowers on the button made the call.
The flop came 5♥A♣10♦ and Fletcher moved all in. Bowers had his chips in the middle before the dealer could even start pulling Fletcher's stack into the middle!
Clayton Fletcher: A♠5♠4♦3♠
Jonathan Bowers: A♦A♥2♦2♠
Fletcher was in bad shape, and when the Q♠ fell on the river, he was drawing dead. The irrelevant Q♣ peeled off on the river, and Fletcher was sent packing.

Jarryd Godena opened to 85,000 under the gun and got a raise from Konstantin Volkov to 200,000. John Mcdonald on the button called. With action back to him Godena thought for a few seconds before betting 315,000 leaving behind around 20,000.
Volkov asked, "Are you all-in?" and when Godena answered in the negative, Volkov replied, "Tricky." It took him a few seconds to announce all-in pushing Mcdonald out of the pot. Godena called.
Jarryd Godena: K♥J♥J♠8♥
Konstantin Volkov: K♠Q♠Q♦J♦
Godena had pocket jacks but Volkov was ahead with pocket queens. Volkov's queens held on the board of A♥10♠8♦5♣A♣ evoking a cheer from Volkov. Godena left the table quietly as the dealer pushed the pot to the winner.

Nathan Tuthill: Q♠J♦10♥8♣
The board ran out with 5♦6♦3♠A♣7♦, and Deak won with his pair of kings.
