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

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.
