Chris Moneymaker and Qui Nguyen Eliminated from 2021 WSOP Main Event


The 2021 WSOP Main Event has reached a critical point with the elimination of Chris Moneymaker and Qui Nguyen, leaving 96 players remaining. The tournament continues to be exciting with notable players still in the running.

Chris Moneymaker, the 2003 WSOP Main Event champion, and Qui Nguyen, the 2016 champion, have both been eliminated from the 2021 WSOP Main Event. Moneymaker finished in 260th place, while Nguyen lost a race with AQ against pocket 8s.

Conrad Simpson was eliminated after a 5-minute pre-flop tank/shove. Koray Aldemir will take the chip lead into day 6. Stephen Chidwick is still in the running, and Alejandro “Papo” Lococo is among the chip leaders. Ramon Colillas is sitting second in chips.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
