Kozieja Eliminates Konnikova

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Grzegorz Kozieja opened from the hijack before Maria Konnikova shoved for approximately 64,000 on the button. Kozieja put in the call to put Konnikova at risk for her tournament life.

Maria Konnikova: AQAll in
Grzegorz Kozieja: JJ

The flop was not what Konnikova wanted to see when it fanned out 95A to give Kozieja a pair of aces and put Konnikova in a bind with two cards to go.

The Q turned gave Kozieja two pair, and the 7 river was the final card Konnikova would see in the tournament as she fell to the aces up of Kozieja.

Straight for Romanello

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

There were over 50,000 already in the middle when this hand was picked up on the QK107J flop.

Bernardo Neves chose to bet 33,000 on the river. Roberto Romanello hesitated just briefly before he made the call to go to a showdown.

Neves showed 77 for a turned set of sevens, but it was no good as Romanello tabled 98 for the rivered bottom straight to claim the pot.

Krashennikov Keeps on Betting

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

This hand was picked up three-handed with about 30,000 in the middle already on a flop of 7310.

Alec Torelli checked from the big blind before Daria Krashennikova bet 22,000 from early position. James Calderaro made the call from middle position before Torelli got out with a fold.

The 5 turn led to a bet of 80,000 from Krashennikov before Calderaro made the call to keep the pot going.

Krashennikova did not slow down on the 7 river. This time, she bet a wager of 80,000. Calderaro opted to fold in the face of a third barrel from Krashennikov to award her the pot.

Daniel Negreanu

The 2026 World Series of Poker is winding down, but Daniel Negreanu isn't finished yet.

Just weeks after winning his eighth WSOP bracelet, the poker icon is back at another final table. Negreanu — who also announced in May that he and his wife Amanda are expecting their first child later this year — is among the final nine in Event #90: $50,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold'em, with his sights set on bracelet No. 9 and a second title of the summer.

Victory would earn Negreanu the $2,276,691 top prize and could also shake up the WSOP Player of the Year race heading into the final stretch of the series.

Full Boat For Dill

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Steven Dill raised from the cutoff to 10,000, and Pao Hsu called from the big blind. The flop was J78, Hsu checked, and Dill bet 11,000. Hsu raised to 40,000, and Dill called.

On the turn Q, Hsu asked to see Dill's chips and moved all in for 66,000 effective. Dill snap-called.

Steven Dill: QJ All in
Pao Hsu: 87

Dill was ahead with the better two pair, and the river J sealed the deal, giving Dill a full house and the win.

Top Chip Counts

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Kamikawa Doubles to Leave Young on Fumes

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Justin Young opened to 10,000 on the button before Tomohiro Kamikawa went all-in for 64,000 from the small blind. Young gave it some thought before he put in the call to put Kamikawa at risk.

Tomohiro Kamikawa: 88All in
Justin Young: A4

Kamikawa needed to fade the ace, and the flop did just that when it came 59Q.

Kamikawa gained a flush draw, which would be crucial when the A peeled on the turn to give Young a pair of aces, and Kamikawa a flush to clinch the hand.

The Q river was of no consequence as Kamikawa earned the double up and Young was left with a small stack in the aftermath.
