How Becoming a Poker Pro Helped Me Accept a Personal Tragedy - Poker and chess pro Jennifer Shahade is profiled in the Wall Street Journal Friday discussing how playing poker a great deal can result in making healthy decisions.

"When you play poker long enough, you both know your approximate odds and what they feel like. With two aces, I had a 4 in 5 chance to win. Optimism in my head mixed with dread in my heart. The flop brought the beautiful ace of hearts to the table, along with a 10 of hearts and three of spades. Since one of his queens was hearts, he was still live for a flush. He could also hit a straight. But with three of a kind, I was 95% certain to win the hand. My dread disappeared."

Shahade describes how one time she rushed to the bathroom during an online poker tournament resulting in her tripping on a wire in the lofted portion of my Brooklyn apartment and tumbling down to the concrete floor.

"Luckily, I landed on a couch on the lower level.

"The result of my reckless hurry wasn’t too bad. But the next time I had to run to the bathroom, I made sure to watch my step.

"You’re pretty unlikely to almost break your legs playing poker—at least at my tables—but that sort of mental shift is just as important. Otherwise, you can fall prey to the gambler’s fallacy, assuming that bad luck will be followed by good luck. When a coin flips tails three times in a row, it might seem like heads is due. But the chance are still 50/50. Over time, luck gives way to math.

"That’s why success in poker is not only about playing well, it’s about playing a lot, and having the support network, confidence and money to keep at it."

Dan Smith Captures His 1st Bracelet; Wins 2022 WSOP Event #6: $25,000 Heads-Up Championship - Dan Smith captured his very first gold bracelet along with $509,717. Smith was emotional after his victory over Christoph Vogelsang who was forced to settle for second place and $315,029.  64 players took part in the event.

Smith is widely considered among the better poker players who had yet to win a bracelet.

The American poker pro has come close on numerous occasions at the WSOP including a second-place finish at the 2016 High Roller for One Drop where he cashed for over $3 million. Along with eight top-three finishes, Smith has accumulated over $10 million at the summer series in Las Vegas over his short career.

"It was always something I was thinking about," Smith pointed out about not having a WSOP title before this victory. "But I wasn't overly stressed about it not happening yet."

Alex Livingston Wins First WSOP Bracelet at Event #9: $1,500 Seven Card Stud - 329 entries and it is Alex Livingston who walks away the winner and $103,292 richer.  Coming into today, Livingston had no recorded tournament victories as he had finished second and third in many events.

Livingston was a wire to wire chip leader winner from about the midway point in Day 2 as he explained the reason for that was mainly his good fortune.

"I did a good job of keeping my foot on the gas as others were battling for pay jumps but at the same time I ran so pure the entire tournament. It honestly feels kinda fluky.

"In the past when I have made final tables, I have slept badly or been nervous in the morning but this time I didn't have any of that."

This is just a blessing, having all my friends and family here, my wife, it doesn't get any better than this. This is it. But this is not the end, this is just the beginning. We got the first one, let's see how many more we're gonna get."

Daniel Zack Victorious in Event #15: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship After Grueling Heads-Up Battle  - After nearly 12 hours of play, the 2022 World Series of Poker Event #15: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship came to a close with Daniel Zack being the last player standing.

"Exhausted, just basically dead, " Zack told PokerNews when asked how he was feeling after his victory. "You know, I have no energy left at all," he added.

With this being Zack's second bracelet win, he was asked which title meant more to him.

"I think bracelet one meant a lot to me because I grew up watching the World Series of Poker and it really meant a lot. But this will be a final table, that is much more memorable to me, especially with it being streamed. If I ever have the wherewithal to watch this back, it will be quite a night."

Doyle Brunson the Latest to Back Out of WSOP Due to Covid Fears - It's no secret by now that Covid has wreaked havoc on this year's World Series of Poker over the past week or so.

The legend Doyle Brunson is the latest to back out of early tournaments due to concerns of transmitting Covid to those in his household, confirming that he has two individuals living with him that are not vaccinated.  Doyle is. 

Adam Friedman Wins Fifth WSOP Gold Bracelet in Event #22: $10,000 - Out of a field of 96 entries in Event #22: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship, Adam Friedman defeated Jean "Prince" Gaspard in heads-up to secure his fifth bracelet and the biggest slice of the $885,875 prize pool.

Friedman finished Day 2 well atop the leaderboard and went wire-to-wire on the final day as he only surrendered the lead for a very short period during three-handed play.

"It is a real honor to be able to win this title with the players who have won it before me. Winning the stud high means more to me than winning my fifth in total for my own personal satisfaction. This is in my top three or four events. I have played thousands upon thousands of hours of this game. I have had really bad success in this event over the last several years and to close it out in my first real shot I have had is amazing."

He also added, "To win bracelets in four straight years is incredible" alluding to his amazing run he has had in recent years to catapult himself higher up in the echelons of poker history discussions.

Phil-Hellmuth-061422.png

Hellmuth, by the way, took some time off following a Covid positive result and had some symptoms but is now recovered and playing in the 2-7 No Limit Lowball Draw Tournament, for which he is the reigning champion.

Gunning for Hellmuth as Jeremy Ausmus Wins 4th WSOP Bracelet - Jeremy Ausmus finished first to take home the top prize of $142,147 and his fourth gold bracelet in Event #23: $3,000 Limit Hold'em.

Ausmus also joined an exclusive group of only 64 others who have four WSOP bracelets and he is now eligible for the WSOP Poker Hall of Fame.

This event started with 213 total entries for a total prize pool of $568,710 and there were just nine remaining on Day 3 to battle it out for the championship.

When talking about the big swings he experienced on the final table, Ausmus said, "It's just kind of the nature of limit, well poker in general but limit especially is very aggressive with a lot of three-betting and raising flops and raising turns- it's very volatile and frustrating at times. But then I just ran good against Rocco who plays heads-up lots and the win feels good."

Wednesday 15 - Daniel Negreanu's Latest Vlog: Ivey, Matusow, Amanda, Chainsaw Corner, Balenciaga guy, the family I abandoned in Havasu

Mike Jukich Wins First Bracelet in Event #21: $1,500 Monster Stack No-Limit Hold'em ($966,577) - After 14 hours of play on Day 4, he triumphed at a final table featuring former bracelet winners Anthony Spinella and Joao Simao, before defeating Mateusz Moolhuizen heads-up to take home $966,577.

The Virginia native was asked by PokerNews how he felt about winning his first-ever bracelet.

"Insane, first off I want to say hi to my fiancé Ashley Myers who's back home, and my son Ryker. I wish they could be here. It just didn't work out with how the scheduling was, I was short to start the day. I had like 14 bigs. I started off with a double and just kinda ran it from there. It's just been a wild roller coaster."

The last couple of hands were as wild as they could get.

"I mean, it was a big set-up on the turn deuce. I thought for a while about just calling but decided to just stick it in. It happened so quick, I heard his rail saying it's over, it's over, and I was like, it's not really over yet. The king hit from outer space, I don't even know how to describe that."

"I don't know how late they're playing in the $10,000 Seven Card Stud 8 or better, but that started today. So I feel like I should go play, right? I mean, that's the championship event. Isn't this kind of like a qualifier today?" he said.
