Are we witnessing the greatest World Series of Poker (WSOP) ever?
No hyperbole, that's a genuine question. On Sunday, Scott Seiver won his third bracelet of the summer making him a lock to win the 2024 WSOP Player of the Year award. Or, so you'd think. But the latter part of that sentence couldn't be further from the truth.

Two adversaries at the final table clashed and one of the team’s run would end.
Jason Wheeler moved all in with his remaining 1,750,000 and action folded to Richard Ali, who immediately called to put Wheeler at risk.
The two exchanged pleasantries earlier at the final table, and this showdown had an edge, especially when Ali jumped up when he saw Wheeler’s tabled hand.
Jason Wheeler: A♦Q♣ 
Richard Ali: Q♦Q♠
“Ladies!” Ali exclaimed to the delight of his rail.
The dealer fanned 6♣A♣Q♥ on the flop, giving Ali middle set and a firm grip on the hand. The J♣ on the turn opened a flush possibility for Wheeler, but 9♦ on the river ended Team Wheeler’s run in sixth place.

Malcolm Trayner of Team Hall moved all in for his team’s remaining 1,185,000 and action fell on Kevin Bagin, who asked for a count.
After the dealer confirmed the amount, Bagin, who had Team Hall covered, moved all in and the rest of the table folded.
Malcolm Trayner: 9♣9♦
Kevin Bagin: A♣Q♣
Trayner was ahead, but the flop of 3♦8♣6♣ gave Bagin the nut flush draw in addition to his two over cards.
The flush arrived when K♣ hit the turn, and then 3♠ on the river proved inconsequential to the outcome.
Team Hall exited the tournament in seventh place for a payout of $27,382.

Aaron Thomas: 6♠6♦
Exterkotter had the lead before the flop, but Thomas seized control of the hand when the dealer placed 6♣8♣A♦ on the board, giving Team Thomas a set of sixes.
The 7♦ on the turn and 4♠ on the river officially ended Team Exterkotter’s tournament in eighth place.
