2024 World Series of Poker May 28th to July 17th ***No Spoilers***
The 2024 WSOP will take place at Horseshoe Las Vegas and Paris Las Vegas from May 28 to July 17, 2024, with the Main Event running from July 3 to July 17. The Main Event – poker’s undisputed freezeout world championship – will have four starting days, beginning on Wednesday, July 3. Players may also register directly on Day 2.
Agree and I hope she still makes it, the final would be a much better watch with her than without. Her overall level of play is exceptional.
Flatting AKo 20bb eff is exceptional play? Hoping that someone behind light 3bets or hoping to hit A/K on the flop? Solvers already calculated that those things dont happen enough so thats why AKo is power jam there for sure, 0% call spot. Then go on to the flop to hit A and fold the best hand.
That was so bad that I had to give up on her. Lets hope the asian punter lesbian spins it up or lets just see real men play poker at high level and none of that punt/nit blunders.
Aq just jammed because what else you gonna do not because he thought he was good.
Ak off should jam pre don't get the flat
Still hope for Xiao and Foxen. I remember watching the ESPN coverage and Qui Nguyen and Gordon Vayo were once 25th and 24th in chips with 25 left in the 2016 main event
Once again, a post got me curious... with this break, I think I'll see if I can find instances of people making such comebacks at this stage in the tourney. Of course, the hard part will be finding full chip counts, but I feel like the WSOP has such updates. Plus, they always have it when it reduces to three tables.
Stay tuned.
Wasn’t watching today but is there coverage of him folding stuff he clearly should have played? Yesterday he was card dead
He folded QTs when he was BB to an opener who min raised when he had a decent enough stack the other day. Thats a bit overly nitty I'd say but just my opinion.
Yeah I mean jam is standard for obvious reasons but if she flats and someone jams AJ behind her (which would have just folded if she had 3bet) then she is a genius. And if nobody jams then her opponents wont ever put her on AK post flop so it can work out multiple ways.
Problem was she got a really tricky flop multiway and butchered it. We have all been there and it can happen to the best.

lol I wonder why more women don’t want to play poker, guys
seriously though this is so shortsighted. to have a woman final table the main would be awesome for poker.
Okay, I only went so far back because I have to relocate right now, plus the formatting of the WSOP reports got sort of unwieldy.
Here's what I have from 2015 to 2022 of "comeback kids." No one who was short at three tables made it to the final nine last year, but it has happened before:
2022 (35 left)
Matthew Su 25th to 9th
Aaron Duczak 23rd to 7th
2021 (36 left)
Jack Oliver 27th to 3rd
2019 (35 left)
Alex Livingston 34th to 3rd
2018 (36 left)
John Cynn 35th to 1st
2017 (35 left)
Damian Salas 27th to 7th
2016 (30 left)
Qui Nguyen 22nd to 1st
Griffin Benger 20th to 7th
2015 (31 left)
Neil Blumenfield 30th to 3rd
Thomas Cannuli 24th to 6th
I skipped 2020 because that was a weird year for the WSOP, what with two different Main events.
EDIT: Also, the "to Xth" is the final finish, not their rank entering the final table.

If she jams preflop I don't believe AQ calls (AJ turbo folds I'm sure) is the problem. When she gets shoved on post I think she's right that way more hands she's loses is in that range so she folds. Missed opportunity you can't have with this many left though and I thought more would discuss it, it's quite the hand/spot. Just calling to me becomes more attractive the more everyone insists you have to jam as well. Tough to see that it went the best and worst it possibly could at the same time but as noted everyone of us has folded the best hand in a spot like that just not on video with known hole cards.
Sucks the ladies got completely owned that last level--hopefully they can run it up post dinner but coming into today really had a good shot one of them would get there, now requires help but as noted, we've seen winners super short in the 20s/30s to go.
latinois 4b jams KTs vs a 30BB 3bettor. Those two players are going at it.
Was that Adrian guy staring down the dealer when he busted?
They are gonna be at the final table tonight at this rate.
They should stop it right now and play down to 9 tomorrow like we discussed a couple days ago. Rather than playing down to like 18 or whatever tonight which makes tomorrow kinda anti-climactic.
Think Xiao is gonna blow it out at the Rhino?

Agreed. Squeezing has value there with I'm guessing 30% steal 3 bet chance as she was in mid position. And she gets to see any re-raise AI crazy stuff that might happen so she can get away from a multi-way AI where AKo loses a lot of its value.
And calling with no 3 bet seems ok as her AKo becomes somewhat disguised and easier to navigate on more boards. But IMO it needs to be played more aggressively on that flop, especially with the monotone.
At that stage she had to be considering either 3 bet or call/squeeze. The latter probably appealed to her more with a better chance of getting a middle stack, and a huge boost for the next pay jumps and a final table push.
lol @ J6dd 3-bet. Clicking buttons with less than 30 left in the ME
Foxen playing so bad and getting abused its hard to watch. She will be out soon, great run for a woman still top 20-30 one of the best modern wsop runs for a female well done, but need to study more for that final table spot.
Not sure Russell has what it takes, but he's not backing down from much.
seen it several times now where the amount of times where you'd think there shouldn't be a bluff but it is against shorter stacks but the shorter stack folds. Something to learn. Some people are just fans of J6 I guess.
