Pacleb Finds the Double

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

Robert Pacleb moved all in for 75,000 in middle position and it folded around to Mark Rubin in the big blind, who took some time to think through his decision.

"I don't know how to make this call, it's complete garbage," said Rubin after looking back at his cards.

He eventually did make the call, asking, "Do I really have to show this?" after seeing Pacleb's cards.

Robert Pacleb: AA All in
Mark Rubin: 106

The board of 8JK48 ran out safe for Pacleb, securing him the much-needed double-up.

Dovzhenko Smacks the River to Bust Pather

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

Alexander Dovzhenko raised to 60,000 from middle position and Kinesh Pather jammed for 255,000 from the button. Dovzhenko gave it plenty of thought before making the call to try and bust Pather.

Kinesh Pather: 99 All in
Alexander Dovzhenko: 98

Dovzhenko's suited connector was in awful shape against the pocket nines of Pather, but he picked up a straight-flush draw on the 10Q5 flop.

The 4 turn was a brick, but the J completed the board to give Dovzhenko a straight, sending Pather to the rail with a bad beat story to tell.

Ananchaperumal Turns Two Pair

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

Action went heads-up to the turn in a hand between Dhesikan Ananchaperumal in the small blind and Imre Makranyi on the button.

With the board reading K1082, Ananchaperumal check-called a bet of 80,000, bringing the 3 river.

Both players checked and Ananchaperumal tabled 82 for two pair, eights and deuces.

"Nice turn," said Makranyi, showing A10 for a pair of tens.

Wymore Doubles Through Thomas

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

Perry Wymore stuck in his stack of 205,000 from middle position and Mark Thomas was the player trying to win them all from the button.

Perry Wymore: AQ All in
Mark Thomas: JJ

It was "a fair fight," as one of their tablemates commented, although Wymore took the upper hand by pairing his ace on the A94 flop.

Thomas didn't find a jack on the 10 turn or 7 river, and Wymore earned the much-needed double-up.

Warling Chipping Up

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

Mark Warling raised to 75,000 in middle position, Jonathan Lemone flatted in late position, and Edward Apodaca raised to 150,000 in the hijack. Warling and Lemone both called.

The flop came K10J, and Warling led out with a bet of 200,000, prompting Lemone and Apodaca to give up their hands.

Savarese Rivers a Boat to End Coen's Tournament

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

Samuel Coen raised to around 60,000 from middle position and David Savarese jammed for 740,000 from the hijack. Coen made the call and the players flipped their cards.

David Savarese: KJ All in
Samuel Coen: 1010

Coen's pocket tens remained best on the 75Q flop, although Savarese picked up a flush draw when the 5 arrived on the turn.

Savarese made his flush on the 10 river, but it wasn't the club he needed, as Coen improved to a full house to win the pot and eliminate Savarese.

Financially Struggling DoorDash Driver Staked By Poker Vlogger Runs Deep at WSOP

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

Nixon Diaz finished in 26th place for $14,510 at the World Series of Poker (WSOP), in the $1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event.

That isn't the story. You probably aren't even familiar with Diaz. After all, he'd never even cashed in a live poker tournament recorded by The Hendon Mob prior to the start of the 2026 WSOP. The story is how he even entered the tournament, and it started via a chance encounter with popular poker vlogger Corey Eyring.

Eyring, who has 187,000 YouTube subscribers, was looking to give $20,000 to two subscribers to play poker at the WSOP. He ordered some food from DoorDash, and the driver told him, "I think I've seen you out playing poker man," and the two shook hands.
