The @WSOP has awarded bracelets in 34 different poker variants since 1970. If greatness is measured by mastering the widest range of games, one player stands alone: @philivey. Ivey's 11 WSOP bracelets have come across 9⃣ different variants, the most in #WSOP history. 🏆 Pot-Limit Omaha (2), Stud Hi-Lo, S.H.O.E., Stud, No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw, Omaha Hi-Lo/Stud Hi-Lo Split, H.O.R.S.E., 8-Game (2), Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Next is John Hennigan, whose seven bracelets have come in 7⃣ different variants. A six-way tie for third includes @TexDolly, Johnny Chan, TJ Cloutier, @BennyGlaser, @tsarrast, and @brianchastings, each with bracelets in 6⃣ different games. Meanwhile, @phil_hellmuth's record of 17 bracelets spans 5⃣ different variants, part of a 15-player group that has conquered five games and includes @Erik_Seidel, @NickSchulman, @shaundeeb, @RealKidPoker, @JoshuaArieh, @scott_seiver, @YuriNerdguy, @angryjmonnett, @gordoMG, and several more. No one has demonstrated WSOP versatility quite like Ivey 🐐

Also, if anyone I know here has any marketing or brand connections, my estimates show that we’ve had between 4million-12 million impressions from applicants for the first three weeks of the series. We are doing real numbers, have real metrics… just need a real brand to join!!!

Update regarding @PokerSummerTO - I am actively trying to get brands to participate in a marketing campaign. My goal is by WSOP main event to secure a sponsor. It is probably ~20% or less chance it happens but it’s possible. Working with my PR/marketing connects. Thanks all!

HOF needs Jason more than Jason needs HOF. Absolute legend
20 years ago I made my first trip to Vegas. I saw the legends in the Poker Hall of Fame and dreamed joining them one day. I'm 40 now and finally eligible. It's up to the fans to decide who the 8 nominees are. If you think I belong, I'd appreciate your vote. wsop.com/hall-of-fame/2026-n…

Yuri Dzivielevski 🇧🇷 continues to stamp his legacy as one of poker's best all-round poker players. With his latest @WSOP victory, @YuriNerdguy captured his sixth WSOP bracelet and joins an elite group of 12 players who are six-time WSOP bracelet winners. Yuri's six-bracelet run from 2019 to 2026 ranks 3rd-fastest in #WSOP history behind Doyle Brunson and Johnny Moss at 2,547 days. It was also his fifth WSOP bracelet in a unique poker variant. This is an accomplishment shared by 23 poker players, with the leader being Phil Ivey, who has won 11 of his bracelets in nine different poker variants.

A few years ago we simulated push/fold poker tournaments with ICM and chip EV players. Each agent knows and adjusts to each others' strategy. The results: Those who switched to ICM sooner had a higher return. It seems switching around the 37% field remaining mark was the crucial turning point. Players who held onto chipEV strategies all the way to the final table had a significantly worse ROI, despite winning 1st more often than every other cohort. There's a fundamental tradeoff between going for bracelets and maximizing money in poker tournaments.
