The 23 May was Day 3 of the 2025 Wynn Summer Classic and saw another winner crowned and two more flights of the $600 buy-in $500,000 GTD event.
With the final two starting flights getting underway later today (Day 1E - 12 p.m. & Day 1F (Turbo) - 6 p.m.), anyone not guaranteed a seat in Day 2 will be looking to lock one up.
Stern Gallops to Victory in $1,100 HORSE
It's the first mixed game event on the Wynn Summer Classic schedule, and it's been won by Zachary Stern who defeated Michael Sopko heads-up.
Stern takes home $19,060 for his victory over an 82-player field, with Sopko having to settle for just $2 less after an apparent heads-up deal.
Start-of-day chip leader David "Bakes" Baker would have to settle for fifth-place, while former bracelet winner Scott Abrams exited in sixth.
A total of 86 players entered the $1,100 TORSE event, generating a prize pool of $82,990. At the end of Day 1, just 15 players remain and they are lead by Hani Awad. The bracelet winner, whose WSOP victory came in the $2,500 Mixed Omaha/Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better event in 2016 finished with 559,000 chips.
He's clear of David Tarbet (308,000) who is the only other player above 300,000 in chips. David "Bakes" Baker is also through to another mixed game Day 2, and sits 13th in chips.
The tournament plays down to a winner today, with play resuming at 11 a.m.

What's Coming Up Next?
The final day of the TORSE will see another Wynn Summer Classic champion crowned, with another mixed game event — the Limit 2-7 Triple Draw — also kicking off at the same time. That tournament sees late registration open until 4:30 p.m., so expect some of those eliminated from the TORSE to jump across.
Meanwhile, the multiflight No-Limit Hold'em event has two more flights — the last two — with a regular flight at 12 p.m. and a turbo flight later today at 6 p.m.
