Could be the first of many for James Cheung, who’s been tearing it up on the @AsianPokerTour winning 8 titles in little over a year.
Poor start overall for British poker players at the 2026 @WSOP but an excellent start for Scotland’s mixed games superstar James Cheung, with one bracelet win and a 2nd place!

Scotland’s James Cheung also went very close to his second bracelet of the series, taking the runner-up spot.
Congratulations and hats off to @key_poker for his back-to-back $10k Championship bracelet wins at the @WSOP
First double winner at the 2026 series.

The switch from spring to summer for the Battle of Malta by @CM_Poker has been a great move, hope it stays in this new slot next year.

Tough final table with Brewer, Racener, Weissman and Josephy!
Congratulations to Naseem Salem, winner of the $25k GGMillion$ NLH High Roller at the @WSOP. Salem topped a field of 627 entrants to claim his first WSOP bracelet and $1.09m prize money, more than double his previous lifetime earnings.

Made it to Day 2 of the Battle of Malta for the first time. I’ve been a live reporter for this event for the last two years, nice to play it again.
Although not reporting, I’m still writing about it. Guarantee smashed early…

The opening two days of the @WSOP were weaker than in 2025. Is this just a bad start or a sign of a wider slowdown in the live poker economy?

Not going to Vegas this year sadly, but following the coverage is the next best thing.
Fingers crossed for everyone I know who goes to the World Series of Poker, especially all from Malta 🇲🇹 UK 🇬🇧 and Ireland 🇮🇪
Bring back a bracelet!

The 2026 WSOP starts today in Las Vegas. Last year a record seven bracelets were won by UK players. How well will the Britpack do this year?
Are you going?
The 2026 @WSOP begins today in Las Vegas. After a record bracelet haul of seven in 2025, the UK’s poker players have a lot to live up to. Who will bring home the next British bracelet?
