Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
2026 WSOP
2026 WSOP

There was no shortage of big moments and big hands during the first week of the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP).

Daniel Negreanu lost a 10:1 chip lead thanks to a three-outer in the Sweet 16 of Event #7: $25,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em Championship. Phil Hellmuth made an 18th bracelet run that fell short when he ran into the nut flush. And one player avoided complete disaster when he suffered a brutal cooler with quads.

Top Pair Good for Pfeifer

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Action was caught on a flop of 66J with Will Givens, in middle position, and Jochen Pfeifer, the cutoff, heads up with a pot of 235,000 in the middle.

First to act was Givens, who put a bet of 100,000 into the middle. Pfeifer stuck around with a call. The turn 8 and river 4 checked through, and Givens tabled Q10102 for a pair of tens. Pfeifer scooped the pot with AKQJ.

The 9KK flop was checked by both players.

Aboudi checked again on the A turn. Tan bet 150,000, which was enough to end the hand as Aboudi folded to award the pot to Tan.

Aboudi Puts Seward Through the Blender

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ido Aboudi
Ido Aboudi

Ido Aboudi raised pot to 105,000 from the cutoff and was looked up by Nicholas Seward in the big blind.

The flop came 1049 and Seward check-called Aboudi's 175,000 continuation bet for the players to see the Q peel off on the turn.

Seward checked it over to Aboudi once more who bet out for 550,000. Seward thought for a while and made the call.

On the A river Seward checked for a third time and Aboudi didn't slow down betting out enough to put Seward all in. Seward went deep into the tank for two to three minutes before he released his hand to send the pot to Aboudi with no show down.

Zachary Hirst: K877 All in
Phillip Mighall: AA85

Mighall was ahead with a set of aces. Hirst prepared to leave and got on his feet, but remained to watch the dealer peel a 10 turn and a J river.

As Hirst was leaving the table, Mighall exclaimed, "Finally I got aces."
