2020 World Series Of Poker

Damian Salas defeated Joseph Hebert heads-up on Sunday to capture the 2020 World Series of Poker Main Event title and the extra $1 million in prize money.

Crushing losses in poker tournaments happen to even the greatest of pros, and that includes Daniel Negreanu.

• 13, 2020 / PRNewswire / - The World Series of Poker (WSOP) today announced plans to host 2020's hybrid online and live version of the $10,000 No-Limit Hold-Em World Championship, known better to poker players and fans as the Main Event.
• At long last, COVID-19 has forced the postponement of the 2020 World Series of Poker. The 51st annual summer poker series will not take place as scheduled, which is probably not a shock to most.
• The 2020 World Series of Poker is the latest sporting event to be postponed as a result of the global pandemic. The 51st installment of the tournament was set to begin on May 26 at the Rio.
• With just a month and a half to go, the 2020 World Series of Poker has yet to be cancelled, despite the country it would take place in being under stack in the worst week so far for American deaths.

This week, while playing in a GG Poker World Series of Poker event, he was streaming as he got a Queen and a 10 and decided to raise before the flop as “a little bit of a bluff.”

Then, Yuri Dzivielevski called, and that’s when what would be a disastrous hand would unfold.

Right off the bat, Negreanu landed a straight. Dzivielevski bet, and Negreanu simply called, baiting his opponent into continuing the hand. It’s a smart play here given that he’s got a devastatingly good hand.

Out comes the 3 of spades, the second spade on the board along with a Jack. Dzivielevski shoves all-in, and Negreanu calls with his large stack, finding out that his opponent is holding 6-5 of spades for a flush draw.

All Negreanu needs is for a non-spade to come out on the river. But guess what happens?
