Del Pino has amassed more than one million in earnings, according to The Hendon Mob, as he searches for his first WSOP bracelet. The Spaniard has been active this summer and has cashed in four events heading into this event, making this his fifth cash of the 2025 World Series of Poker. His highest finish came in Event #68: $3,000 No-Limit Hold’em, where he recorded a 20th place finish for $31,751.

Del Pino is guaranteed to surpass that regardless of where he finishes in this event, as the minimum cash moving forward is $34,124. Should Del Pino win, it will nearly double his total recorded live earnings.

Leonard Maue
Leonard Maue

High Roller Leonard Maue is an experienced player at these stakes and has tallied five total cashes, including this event, so far at the 2025 WSOP. Maue is coming off an 11th-place finish in Event #88: $50,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold’em, where he cashed for $175,048.

Maue came close to a bracelet in the six-handed format back in 2019 when he finished fourth. He will look to add the WSOP bracelet to the mantle for the first time in his accomplished career.

In a preflop confrontation Tzai Wei Phua was all in from the big blind for 1,120,000 and up against Justin Vaysman who covered him from the cutoff.

Tzai Wei Phua: KK All in
Justin Vaysman: 1010

Phua's kings stayed in front on the QJ469 runout to double up through Vaysman, who was left with just 55,000 chips.

A couple hands later Vaysman shoved his remaining stack from under the gun and Sean Winter called from the big blind to put him at risk.

Justin Vaysman: 87 All in
Sean Winter: J9

Vaysman was a big favorite with top two pair on the 378 flop but the rest of the board ran out 56 giving Winter a nine-high straight to eliminate Vaysman.

Konakchiev Eliminated by Chalot

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Valentino Konakchiev
Valentino Konakchiev

Eric Wasserson raised to 60,000 from under the gun and Benjamin Chalot three-bet to 225,000 on the button. Out of the small blind, Valentino Konakchiev pushed for around one million and Wasserson folded while Chalot called instantly.

Valentino Konakchiev: AQ All in
Benjamin Chalot: AK

The K72 flop left Konakchiev on the ropes and in need of running cards to survive. One of them came with the 10 turn but the 5 river provided no help, propelling Chalot further up the leaderboard.

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Artem Metalidi
Artem Metalidi

Gustavo Ortega raised from the hijack to 60,000, which led to a call from Artem Metalidi from the big blind.

The 10J10 flop was met with a check from Metalidi before Ortega chose to bet 35,000.

Metalidi responded with a check-raise to 120,000. Ortega was not done raising himself as he decided to jam and put Metalidi at risk. Metalidi gave it some thought before he slid out his chips to go all in.

Artem Metalidi: KQAll in
Gustavo Ortega: AQ

Metalidi had an open-ended straight draw and overcards, while Ortega held overcards and a gutshot straight draw.

Metalidi was unable to improve on the 5 turn and the 10 river to be sent out in 20th place.

Hugues Girard
Hugues Girard

Daniel Vicente raised to 80,000 from the hijack and faced an almost all-in from Hugues Girard, who committed most of his stack except for about 45,000 behind.

Vicente announced all-in to force Girard to put in the rest of his chips. Girard took some time to wait for another elimination possibility before he flicked in the call to be at risk for approximately 905,000.

Hugues Girard: 66All in
Daniel Vicente: JJ

Girard needed the board to rescue him from doom, but the help did not come as the board spread out 84Q410 to eliminate Girard from the tournament.

David Kaufman Eliminated in 17th Place ($50,843)

Level 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
David Kaufmann
David Kaufmann

David Kaufmann jammed for his final 500,000 from the cutoff.

Gustavo Ortega chose to also go all-in from the button to isolate. The table folded, and Kaufmann was at risk.

David Kaufmann: KJAll in
Gustavo Ortega: AJ

Ortega's hand dominated Kaufmann's, and it would take some help for Kaufmann to stay in the tournament.

The flop was not ideal, but it did offer a sliver of hope as it came QA4 to give Kaufmann a gutshot to a straight.

The K turn gave Kaufmann some additional outs to spike trips, but the river did not bring any solace as it came the 9 to eliminate Kaufmann.

Kaufmann earned $50,843 for his 17th-place finish.
