Event #26: $10,000 Deep Stack No-Limit Hold’em attracted 69 entrants who competed for a $655,500 prize pool. Among those to compete but fail to cash were Dylan Linde, Ren Lin, Jeremy Becker, Kristen Foxen, and bubble boy Joe Serock, fresh off making the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event final table.

With three players remaining, Nazar Buhaiov moved all in for approximately 850,000 with king-jack and Poker Hall of Famer Erik Seidel called from the big blind with ace-ten. The board ran out all low cards and Seidel dispatched Buhaiov in third place for $80,300.

Heads-up play began with Seidel holding a single big blind lead over Clemen Deng and the two agreed to a deal that saw them each take home $179K with Seidel being named the winner.
