The big bets will be flying when Event #73: $2,500 Mixed Big Bet, comes to town Saturday, July 1st 4:00 p.m. at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas . A full menu of no-limit and pot-limit varietals will lure a field of the biggest names in big-bet games, and will require a Swiss Army knife of skills to triumph.
Players will navigate a rotation of big bet flop or draw games Big O, No-Limit Hold’em, No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw, Pot-Limit Omaha 8 or Better, No-Limit Five Card Draw High, Pot-Limit Omaha, and Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw, over three days of action.
Last year’s event was won by 22-year-old Lok Chan. He battled through a record field of 281 to capture his first WSOP bracelet and the top prize of $144,338.
“When I turned 17 or 18, I would go to Taiwan and play live tournaments and I would play cash online,” Chan said after the event. “This is my first time coming to Las Vegas for the WSOP. I was lucky enough to stay alive and have a chance to get a bracelet.”
With four cashes already in 2023, Chan should be in great form to defend his title. In addition to Chan, last year's field boasted bracelet winners Rami Boukai, Galen Hall, Patrick Leonard, Renan Bruschi, Richard Ashby, Scott Bohlman, Keith Lehr, Michael Savakinas, and Naoya Kihara all finishing in the top 20, so whoever hoists the bracelet will have survived a top-level gauntlet of big-bet masters.

Pot Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
Michael Rodrigues raised 800 from the cutoff and Ben Reed called from the small blind. Reed drew one, and Rodrigues took three. Reed led out for 1,200 and Rodrigues called. Each player then took one.
This time Reed checked, and Rodrigues made it 3,500 to go. Reed again took one, but Rodrigues patted. Reed checked to Rodrigues, perhaps hoping to set up the check-raise, but Rodrigues checked behind. Reed turned over 7x6x5x4x2x, Rodrigues mucked, and Reed took down an early big pot.

On the latest episode of The Chad & Jesse Poker Show, Chad Holloway and Jesse Fullen come to you straight from the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP).
They are joined by Joey Ingram, AKA Papi, a lover of four-card poker. A prolific poker podcaster, Ingram is known for his marathon emergency investigations into such controversial matters as the Mike Postle and Robbi Jade Lew cheating allegations. Ingram, who was in L.A. for the Hustler Casino Live $1,000,000 Cash Game, recently returned to Las Vegas and was at the 2023 WSOP for the first time when he sat down with the guys.
Hear what Ingram thinks the future holds for poker, which just might surprise you.
Chad and Jesse also break down all ten nominees for the Poker Hall of Fame Class of 2023. Only one will get in, and it’ll undoubtedly be a close affair with so many deserving individuals.
Big O
The board read 10♥J♣10♣Q♦ in a hand between Matthew Ashton in the small blind and a player in late position.
Ashton bet 300 and was raised to 1,100.
After some deliberation, Ashton put in the three-bet to 3,500 and got the fold.
