While participants of the 2023 World Series of Poker Main Event were treated to the surprising entry of ex-Manchester City Sergio Aguero, there was another shock Main Event debut that flew under the radar.
Online poker pioneer and co-founder of PokerStars Isai Scheinberg quietly entered poker's crown jewel tournament on Day 2abc and navigated his way through the field, ending the session with a stack of 62,000. He returns to the felt at 12 p.m. for Day 3.
Scheinberg's participation in the Main Event is quite a shock due to the fact that he is very rarely spotted at the poker table.
