The WSOP has moved two of the final three tables to the streamed featured tables area, which means our live reporting will have to be delayed by around 2.5 hours to match the live stream, per the WSOP media guidelines. We apologize for the inconvenience.
2026 World Series of Poker
Lexy Gavin-Mather opened to 80,000 from the hijack and Cherish Andrews called from the small blind.
They were dealt the 2♦5♣A♥ flop, and both checked to the 7♦ turn.
Andrews check-called a 90,000 bet by Gavin-Mather and the 9♥ completed the board. Andrews checked, Gavin-Mather bet 180,000 and Andrews snap called. Gavin-Mather mucked her cards, giving up the pot without showing her hand and Andrews followed suit.
Moments after Kindah Sakkal doubled through Aubrey Williams, Lisa Tan, at the same table, opened to 80,000 from middle position. Lee Ilagan in the big blind moved all in for 445,000, and Tan eventually made the call.
Lee Ilagan: K♥Q♠
Lisa Tan: A♦Q♥
Ilagan failed to improve on a board of 3♥9♥8♣5♣7♥, and she was eliminated.
Cards went on their backs with Caitlin Comeskey in the small blind all-in and at risk for 375,000 against Kimura Nao on the button.
Caitlin Comeskey: K♦K♣
Kimura Nao: 8♦8♥
Comeskey's kings held on 9♥A♦10♣A♠4♣ and she doubled up.
Sondra Lacoy opened to 60,000 in early position, and Marie Benedetto, to her left, called. Michelle Dimaunahan in late position shoved all in for 360,000.
When action returned to her, Lacoy called, and Benedetto got out of the way, leaving the two players to head to showdown.
Michelle Dimaunahan: A♥K♥
Sondra Lacoy: A♣Q♠
The board ran 4♦6♣9♠3♠4♣, and with no one hitting the board, Dimaunahan doubled up with ace-king-high.
Shannon Fahey opened on the button, and Svetlana Gromenkova moved all in from the big blind for her 1,770,000 stack. Fahey called and put herself at risk of elimination, having committed her last 1,160,000 chips to the pot.
Shannon Fahey: A♦A♠
Svetlana Gromenkova: A♣Q♥
The A♥K♠J♠ flop brought Fahey the set, but Gromenkova had a chance to steal with the Broadway straight draw.
There was no change on the 5♦ turn, and Gromenkova didn't turn things around on the 4♥ river, and passed a huge pot across to Fahey.
Level: 24
Blinds: 20,000/40,000
Ante: 40,000
Cherish Andrews opened to 60,000 on the button and Kimura Nao defended her big blind.
The 7♠10♥Q♠ flop saw Nao check and Andrews bet 75,000. Nao paid to see the 4♣ turn and she checked again.
Andrews moved out 175,000 and Nao went into the tank. She took over a minute but opted to muck her hand and pass Andrews the pot.
Lisa Tan opened to 60,000 from the button before Jessica Teusl, who had just taken her seat at the table, moved all in for 445,000. Tan quickly called.
Jessica Teusl: A♦10♣
Lisa Tan: K♦Q♣
The board ran out 6♥9♥3♠2♣7♦ and Teusl doubled up.
Cherish Andrews opened to 60,000 from middle position, and Victoria Ailloud called on the button. Eliana Shapovalov moved all in for her last 420,000 from the small blind, and Andrews didn't take long to fold. Ailloud made the call.
Eliana Shapovalov: A♦9♠
Victoria Ailloud: A♣Q♥
Shapovalov was behind, and things stayed that way on the 7♦K♣A♠ flop. A Q♠ turn was only good for Ailloud, and there was no way for Shapovalov to come back. The 5♠ came on the river, and Shapovalov was already up from the table, having been eliminated in 28th place for $5,727.
Action was picked up with Kimura Nao and Lizhen Chen, at risk, engaged in an all-in showdown.
Lizhen Chen: K♥10♦
Kimura Nao: A♠K♦
Nao had Chen dominated and stayed in the lead when the 3♣2♣5♥ flop dropped. Chen was looking intently at the board as the dealer continued with a 2♥ turn.
The river 10♥ gave her a pair and a lifeline. Leaning back on her seat, she looked relieved until the dealer shouted payout, shocked that the floor was on his way to their table.
She showed her pair to the dealer in time and avoided getting eliminated by the floor on the app.
