Israelashvili Extends All-Time WSOP Cashes Lead
After “MBEASY” bubbled the tournament in 144th place, the in-the-money eliminations came at a rapid pace. Among those to cash the tournament but fall short of the final table were David “Twizzler” Prociak (128th – $1,484.18), Katie “katelin” Lindsay (122nd – $1,571.49), Ryan “protential” Laplante (106th – $1,571.49), Mike “THICC” Delvecchio (79th – $2,008.01), Jared “DarrensRabbi” Jaffee (56th – $2,444.54)
Also cashing the tournament in 101st place for $1,571.49 was Roland “prngls12” Israelashvili. While it wasn’t a big score, it was good enough to extend his all-time WSOP cashes lead to 226.
“DNegs” Goes Deep
Another player to go deep was Daniel “DNegs” Negreanu, who was looking to capture his seventh gold bracelet. Unfortunately for “Kid Poker” and his legion of fans, he fell short busting in 18th place after running pocket nines smack dab into the tens of Matthew “Mendey” Mendez.
Other to fall short were Matthew “Mendey” Mendez (14th – $7,333.62), WSOP bracelet winner Michael “itwasthator0” Gagliano (13th – $7,333.62), and Josh “YoelRomero” King (9th – $11,960.78).

Final Table Action
Daniel “IntoTheRiver” Fischer began the final table as the chip leader, but it was Sean “bahbababa” Prendiville who got down to business early. First, his king-nine bested the ace-jack of Matthew “Michmeister” Mich in an all-in preflop situation, and not long after his pocket queens held against Big Slick to bust Jon “jonnyg93” Gisler in seventh place.
Popular poker pro Jason “haderade” Somerville exited in sixth place after failing to win a race with ace-king against the pocket tens of “PokeThese,” and then Prendiville’s early momentum fizzled when he grew short and busted to Kevin “GoneBananas” Garosshen in fifth place.
Fischer was next to go getting unlucky when his king-ten failed to hold against “KOVID19’s” jack-ten, and not long after “PokeThese” opened up a big chip lead.
Garosshen wound up dwindling to an extreme short stack before bowing out in third place to “KOVID19,” who entered heads-up play down more than 3:1 in chips. Eventually “KOVID19” grew even shorter and got it in with queen-six only to see “PokerThese” wake up with pocket sixes and hold.
