The 2026 WSOP Ladies Championship gets underway at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas today, and that means the entire poker world is asking one question: Can Shiina Okamoto do it again?
It's a question that should feel absurd. In an event once again expected to draw more than 1,000 entrants, the idea that one player could emerge from the riffled din of tournament poker year after year defies logic.
Yet not when it's the WSOP Ladies Championship. And not when it's Okamoto.
2nd. 1st. 1st. That's how the form book reads. Think Secretariat, then make the field 1,200 strong.
