Shaun Deeb came up one spot short yet again for a 2026 World Series of Poker bracelet, falling to Joey Couden in Event #52: $3,000 Nine Game Mix after a grueling three-and-a-half-hour heads-up battle. The defeat was Deeb's ninth in a bracelet match and dropped his all-time heads-up record to 8-9.
The latest near miss added to a frustrating run of runner-up finishes for the eight-time bracelet winner. Deeb had already finished second twice at WSOP Europe earlier this year to take an early lead in the Player of the Year race, but after arriving in Las Vegas with just one cash through the opening weeks of the series, another silver medal may prove crucial as he chases back-to-back POY titles.
As painful as Deeb's 8-9 record may be, it doesn't rank among the unluckiest in WSOP history. Several poker crushers have reached heads-up for a bracelet time and again, only to walk away empty-handed. Here are the players with the most WSOP runner-up finishes without ever sealing the deal.
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Hokyiu Lee limped from under the gun, and Kamel Mokhammad followed with a limp from the small blind. Zachary Gruneberg checked his option out of the big blind.
The 2♦4♥9♥ flop led to a check from Mokhammad. Gruneberg bet 450,000, which got a fold from Lee. Mokhammad called.
Both players checked the 6♦ turn and the Q♦ river to go to a showdown.
Gruneberg showed A♦K♥6♠5♠3♣ for a six-high straight to take the pot.
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Zachary Gruneberg potted to 700,000 under the gun. Hokyiu Lee was on the button and counted out his chips before moving all in. The blinds folded and Gruneberg called.
Hokyiu Lee: A♥J♥J♠10♠9♠ 
Zachary Gruneberg: A♦A♠K♠3♠3♥
The K♦10♦2♣ flop kept Gruneberg in the lead, but he saw a brutal Q♣ on the turn to leave him drawing to a chop, as Lee made Broadway. The K♣ river changed nothing, and no player was lost as Lee raked in the pot.

Zachary Gruneberg: K♠K♣Q♣10♥10♣
