Reigning World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event champion flipped his way into this year's championship event, meaning he won't even have to put up the $10,000 buy-in to defend his title.
Tamayo announced on Sunday that he won a WSOP Online $160 All-In Flipament, a flip-and-go-style event that puts players all-in blind and that needs 64 players to run, according to Kevin Mathers.
Tamayo demonstrated his luck a year ago when he navigated the largest WSOP Main Event field in history to win $10 million. The longtime poker pro from Texas proved luck is still on his side in 2025.
