Ray Fishman Eliminated in 12th Place ($11,369)

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Ray Fishman made a pot-sized raise to 280,000 under the gun, leaving himself only 50,000 behind. Michael Rodrigues called in the cutoff, after which Fishman's final chips quickly flew in on the 9♦9♣A♥ flop.

Ray Fishman: K♠Q♣9♠8♣ All in
Michael Rodrigues: A♠K♦Q♠6♣

"I knew it!" Dennis Weiss exclaimed upon seeing Fishman holding his beloved nine.

"It's not over yet," Fishman replied.

Fishman's caution appeared to be correct as Rodrigues turned a better three of a kind on the A♣ turn, and the 3♦ river could not save Fishman from his demise.

"I had a feeling the ace was coming," Fishman stated as he departed the tournament area.

Paradise Doubles Through Hausen

Level 27 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Darin Utley potted to 280,000 first-to-act and was called by Tobias Hausen in the cutoff and Rocky Paradise in the small blind to create a pot of an even 1,000,000.

The J♦10♣9♣ flop checked through to the J♥ turn. Paradise checked, Utley bet 150,000, Hausen raised to 400,000, and Paradise jammed for 985,000. Utley quickly got out of the way and Hausen confirmed the count before he put in the call.

Rocky Paradise: Q♥Q♣10♥10♦ All in
Tobias Hausen: A♥J♣4♥3♦

Paradise turned tens full of jacks, but Hausen had outs to make a higher boat with his jack. However, the river was the Q♠ and Paradise's queens full were best to secure the double in the massive pot.

After committing most of his chips on the A♣Q♥8♣ flop, big blind Robert Nehorayan got his last few blinds in on the Q♠ turn against Jordan Polk in the cutoff.

Robert Nehorayan: A♦5♥4♥2♦ All in
Jordan Polk: A♥K♦8♠5♣

The 9♦ river helped neither player. Polk took the pot with his king kicker, forcing Nehorayan to say goodbye to his former tablemates.

After several limps, Michael Rodrigues made it 300,000 to go in the big blind. Josh Arieh called in the cutoff, and the J♥3♦5♠ flop was fanned. Rodrigues then got his stack of 2,075,000 all in, with Arieh covering him.

Michael Rodrigues: A♣6♦5♥2♥ All in
Josh Arieh: A♠Q♦Q♣4♦

Rodrigues made two pair on the A♥ turn, and Arieh did not improve enough on the 7♣ river. Rodrigues doubled up, netting him a spot among the chipleaders of the tournament.

Normand Extends His Lead

Level 26 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Robert Nehorayan limped in the small blind and Frederic Normand checked his option in the big blind.

On the A♠9♣3♦ flop, Nehorayan led for 80,000 and Normand put in the call.

Nehorayan led again on the Q♦ turn for 175,000. Normand inquired about the size of Nehorayan's stack before he flatted.

The 6♠ river checked through as Nehorayan announced that he had a three before sheepishly revealing K♥J♠10♠3♥ for bottom pair with a missed wrap and no low. Normand tabled J♣9♦6♦2♦ for two pair, sixes and nines, which were enough for the winner as he extends his lead atop the counts.

20 Years Later, Daniel Negreanu is Still Getting Coolered by Gus Hansen

20 years after that hand on High Stakes Poker, Daniel Negreanu is still getting coolered by Gus Hansen, and this time at the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP).

Playing Day 1 of the $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship, the two poker legends faced off with monsters that saw Hansen rake in a pot against Negreanu with a better full house.

However, unlike that iconic encounter from Season 2 of High Stakes Poker in 2006 (in which the turn card that day gave Hansen quads over Negreanu's boat), on this occasion, Kid Poker had clearly learned his lesson from two decades ago, losing only a small pot instead of going broke after telling the Dane, "Jeez, I'm sorry I didn't raise you!" after the hands were tabled.

Ryan Hoenig limped in from middle position. Ray Fishman then raised the pot to 270,000 in the cutoff, and Ryan Hansen repotted in the big blind, forcing out Hansen.

Fishman quickly called off his total stack of 355,000, and the players tabled their cards.

Ray Fishman: A♠K♠K♣5♣ All in
Ryan Hansen: A♦A♣7♦6♥

Fishman flopped a bunch of draws on 10♣Q♣3♦, although the 10♥ turn did not help him further. The K♦ river did though, upgrading him to a full house to scoop the pot and double up.
