It never takes long before at least one player is eliminated on Day 1 of the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event.
Yesterday, a player gambled with ace-king and ran into pocket aces to be eliminated moments after the $10,000 buy-in World Championship event began. Today, pocket rockets sent the first elimination home quickly again.

In the 983rd episode of the PokerNews Podcast, which is sponsored by FanDuel Poker, Chad Holloway and Mike Holtz are at Level 9 Studio in Las Vegas to discuss one of the wilder days in World Series of Poker (WSOP) history!
Not only did the 2026 WSOP $10,000 Main Event officially kick off, complete with Phil Hellmuth's patented circus-like entrance, but both Daniel Negreanu and Martin Kabrhel snagged gold bracelets. That allowed the former to crack the top ten in the 2026 WSOP Player of the Year race, while the latter drew the ire of some fans when he refused to shake the hand of his opponent.
Chad and Mike get into it all, while also thanking sponsor Think Jerky, which you can order here, and shouting out Overlords Caps, of which they're both big fans.
Find out all about those stories and more in this week's episode of the PokerNews Podcast! Oh, and be sure to check out the audio version of the PokerNews Podcast that is available on all major podcasting platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and SoundCloud.

2-7 Triple Draw
Maksim Pisarenko limped in under the gun. Ryan Miller checked his big blind before drawing two cards, seeing Pisarenko take three in response. Miller then led out with a bet, and Pisarenko called.
Miller stood pat on the second draw, prompting Pisarenko to draw two cards. Another bet and call followed, after which Miller remained pat and Pisarenko requested one fresh card.
Miller kept betting after the final draw, but he instantly mucked for his final big bet when Pisarenko put in a raise.
Over at the other table, Brian Rast raised under the gun, and Richard Bai called in the small blind. Bai drew two cards before Rast took one.
Bai then check-called a bet from Rast before the same drawing action occurred. Another check, bet, and call were announced, after which the duo each took one card on the final draw.
Bai decided to lead out with a bet, and Rast quickly looked him up. Bai showed 9x7x6x3x2x, a hand Rast was unable to defeat as he added his cards to the muck.
