"Magic" John Cynn, a past world champion, ended a four-year drought of no live tournament cashes on Wednesday at the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP).

The Chicago-area native avoided the bubble in Event #17: $10,000 No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw Championship when Jon Shoreman busted in 31st place just after the Day 2 dinner break. In doing so, the 2018 WSOP Main Event winner secured his first cash in any tournament — not just at the WSOP — since July 2022.

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 15,000 ante

Daniel Negreanu raised to 40,000 in the cutoff and Alex Foxen moved all in from the small blind. Negreanu had just one 5,000 chip behind and started running his camera before tossing it into the middle.

Foxen drew two. "You drew two? You're going to make me keep this junk?" Negreanu said as he patted.

Daniel Negreanu: Qx9x6x4x3x All in
Alex Foxen: 7x4x2x

Foxen caught a 9x on his first card, but his second was a Kx and Negreanu took the pot with his queen to double up.

"You play terrible. Stick to Hold'em. Two cards for you, not five," Negreanu said to Foxen.
