Saturday was also the start of Event #4: $15,000 No-Limit Hold’em. When registration closed, there were 65 entrants paid. The final table will air on PokerGO starting at 1 p.m. Sunday.

Daniel Negreanu, the PokerGO Cup champion last year, appeared to be on his way to securing his first cash of the series, but he ended up finishing in 11th place right on the money bubble when his {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds} was outdrawn by Brock Wilson’s {q-Spades}{7-Clubs} when the {7-Spades} hit on the river.

Wilson, Ausmus, Cary Katz, and Alex Foxen were among the players remaining at the time of publishing.
