In poker, like in life, they say records are meant to be broken.
But sometimes, someone sets a milestone that just feels impossible to top. Whether it’s because of insane skill, perfect timing, a bit of luck, or a mix of all three, the World Series of Poker has seen some feats over the years that seem like they’ll never be matched.
However, while all records may eventually fall, these achievements are currently some of the most jaw-dropping in WSOP history. Will any of them ever be broken? Only time will tell. For now, though, here are the most incredible WSOP records that will (probably) never be broken.

The 17th level of the WSOP Main Event has reached its end, and the remaining players have been sent on a 20-minute break. Below are some highlights from this level.
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Thien Tran opened to 23,000 under the gun and got the man immediately to his left, Kaiwen Chen to call. Action folded to the big blind and Nicholas Verdugo shoved all-in for 47,000. Both Tran and Chen flat called, prompting Verdugo to say, "Good luck, boys. You'll need it."
The board ran 10♥7♣8♦J♣K♦ with Tran and Chen checking it down.
Verdugo tabled 7♥7♠ for a set on the flop while Tran showed A♦J♦. Chen mucked his hand. The dealer pushed the pot towards Verdugo for a triple up and as he was fixing his stack, he couldn't help but say, "I told you so."
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Dai Ishibashi opened from the cutoff and was met with a three-bet to 53,000 from Ryan Speak on the button. With action back on him, Ishibashi didn’t shy away, he responded with a four-bet to 185,000.
After a brief pause, Speak made the call, and the two saw a flop of 6♣J♠J♣.
Ishibashi kept the pressure on with a bet of 80,000, and Speak came along with a call.
When the 4♦ hit the turn, Ishibashi reached for chips again and fired 130,000. That final barrel proved too much for Speak, who gave up his hand, sending the pot to Ishibashi.
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
On a pot of around 200,000 and a board of 8♥6♣9♣5♠, Jean Lhuillier bet 75,000 and got called by Dakota Baggett in early position.
When the river 5♥ fell, Baggett didn't waste any time in shoving all-in for around 320,000 sending Lhuillier to the tank. Lhuillier asked for a count then stared directly at Baggett for sometime.
He counted his chips and picked up 350,000 looking like he would make the call. He finally put the chips back to his stack and folded conceding the huge pot to Baggett.
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Jon Vallinas kicked the action off with a raise in early position to 20,000. On his direct left, Pablo Garcia put in a three-bet to 50,000. The action then folded to the big-stacked Adrien Delmas, who put in a cold four-bet to 132,000.
Vallinas was quick to fold his cards, and after a minute or so of consideration, Garcia followed suit, returning his cards to the dealer.
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Alen Tenorio opened his button to 22,000, which Yosef Negussie three-bet to 80,000 in the small blind. Tenorio clicked it back to 165,000, and Negussie responded with a five-bet to 400,000.
Tenorio then moved all in, and Negussie called off for 575,000 in total.
Yosef Negussie: A♦10♥ 
Alen Tenorio: K♠K♥
Negussie needed to hit running aces after the 6♠6♥K♦ flop made Tenorio a full house. The 10♣ turn left Negussie drawing dead, rendering the 4♣ river meaningless.
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
There were roughly 245,000 chips in the pot on a flop of 8♣3♦A♣, Benjamin Williams who was in the big blind bet 60,000, Joseph Beasy who was in early position announced all in for 470,000, Williams called.
Joseph Beasy: 10♣10♠
Benjamin Williams: A♦K♠
Williams with top pair held as the board out 7♥Q♥, and Beasy was eliminated.
