There have been a number of memorable hands during this year's World Series of Poker Main Event. You can add a three-way all in cooler that ended in a bad beat during Tuesday's Day 6 action to the list.
With 86 players out of the original 8,663 left in poker's world championship event, and the blinds at 50,000/100,000, three players picked up premium pocket pairs. Two of those players were nursing stacks of around the 20-big blind mark and were looking for a big hand to double up to have an opportunity to make a run at the final table.

The flop of 5♣️
The 2022 WSOP Main Event has provided some epic hands, none more so than a bluff PokerStars ambassador Alejandro Lococo, aka Argentinian freestyle rapper Papo MC, pulled off late on Day 5. And we couldn't possibly forget the failed bluff on Day 4 that sent Mike Matusow home in a disappointing fashion.
At the time of publishing, less than 80 players remained in the 2022 WSOP Main Event, all still in the hunt for the $10 million first place prize. There will be a new champion after last year's winner Koray Aldemir was eliminated in 75th place ($101,700), one of the greatest feats in Main Event history.
