David Farber: AJ All in
Sharon Bachar: KK All in
Charles Campos: AQ

The 392 flop was inconspicuous enough, but the A turn had Bachar exclaiming, "Come on, man!" and he made sure to take a bad-beat picture before leaving as the 6 river sealed his and Farber's fate.

Not Worth the Money

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Stephen Chiovaro arrived at the river full of doubt.

The board read 4310JQ, and Olga Iermolcheva had moved all in with more than half a million chips, into a similarly-sized pot.

"With that smirk, I know you're bluffing," Chiovaro said.

After some agonizing, Chiovara eventually folded, flashing a surprisingly weak 4 much to the chagrin of the table.

"I thought you had at least a 10," Iermolcheva said with a smile.

"If you can beat a pair, I'll give you $20," Chiovara said.

"Twenty dollars is nothing," the reality TV personality replied, and kept smirking.

$25K Heads-Up Bracket Sets Up Potential Negreanu-Mizrachi Semifinal

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Michaal Mizrachi x Daniel Negreanu
Michaal Mizrachi x Daniel Negreanu

The Round of 16 brackets are out for $25,000 Heads-Up Championship, and while Daniel Negreanu and Michael Mizrachi won't face each other in the Round of 16, the dream matchup remains very much alive.

The two GGPoker ambassadors landed on the opposite sides of the bracket on Sunday afternoon, meaning they could meet in Monday's semifinals if both can survive a gauntlet of tough opponents.

It would be one of the marquee clashes of the 2026 World Series of Poker. Negreanu is still one of poker's biggest stars and has already generated headlines this week after announcing that he and wife Amanda are expecting their first child.

Mizrachi, meanwhile, arrived in Las Vegas as the hottest name in the game following his historic 2025 WSOP Main Event victory and subsequent induction into the Poker Hall of Fame.

Level: 25

Blinds: 30,000/60,000
