WSOP Main Event Day 6: High Stakes and Major Eliminations


The sixth day of the WSOP Main Event is marked by significant eliminations and high-stakes action.

Saniye, known for his loose and aggressive play, raises 125,000 from the middle position. Chi Chen, with a less deep stack, calls with aces. The flop shows no immediate action, but on the turn, Saniye bets 100,000, and Chen raises to 300,000. Saniye, known for his aggressive style, re-raises to 750,000. Chen, with 1.7 million left in his stack, struggles but eventually calls.

Kevin Ordet goes all-in against Konya Zhang in a pre-flop battle. Konya requests a count of her stack, but Ordet misunderstands and shows his cards prematurely. Konya reveals she had pocket eights. Professional player Vladimir Belehov, known as vratario on the forum, receives aces and plays them carefully, avoiding suspicion. Ordet goes all-in, and Belehov doubles up.

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.
