June 30 was the 35th day of the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, and it had everything. Controversy, victory, multi-tabling, and more went down as we enter the latter stages of what has been another incredible WSOP.
First, let's get the controversy out of the way. The WSOP decided not to award a bracelet in Event #53: $1,500 Millionaire Maker after Jesse Yaginuma's comeback "victory" over James Carroll. The WSOP split the first and second place prize money between Yaginuma and Carroll, but states no winner of the event is recognized and the bracelet goes unwon.
