In 2009, Jonathan Tamayo made an incredible run in the World Series of Poker Main Event before finishing 21st.

Fifteen years later, the poker pro got the job done, coming from behind to beat second-place Jordan Griff and third-place Niklas Astedt to earn $10 million and his first-ever WSOP bracelet.

Do you think there will be new rules in the next WSOP regarding Laptops on the rail? 😁

As I understood there was already rules not to use it while playing, but didn't have those rules for the rail. One or the other way I dont understand whats the fuss about, cause there's not that much you can check after you played the hand. Calling him cheater is bullshit, cause he wasnt checking it while playing.

Sometimes I rhyme fast sometimes I rhyme slow. Vegan degen.

I believe the advantage given was seeing the solver based real time opening ranges from big blind and small blind based on stack size. He would of seen that. Then take his seat. 

It would allow him to play near perfect GTO for preflop on either position. I agree that post flop is not assisted and the value is minimal for the overall hand and variance.

Polk, Dnegs and another did a pod assigning $100,000 in value verse the $10m 1st place. Not so much that anyone would chance using if tourney director ruled it a violation toward penalty laps or dq. 

I guess the next time a WSOP tourney director sees any use of real time assistance that person will be subject to harsh action. After all the commotion fields might reduce till recreational players feel better that they don't have to be concerned about having to play against real time solvers. Then its just trying to get lucky verses the pros that are well studied in the spots.

I do agree with the analysis as applied value of its use in the moment. Very minimal in a hu battle. Not worth attracting a penalty or worse a disqualification.

Interesting seeing that the official 2024 WSOP rules as explained by Polk seemed to remove the language from 2023 rules that made it a clearer violation.

Also interesting is that Nevada Gaming Commission has very clearly defined use of any tools as cheating in general to any games they regulate and has criminal penalty. As they are the authority that allows poker to be made commercially available there the WSOP tourney will have to align.    

I think overall it will be a topic of what is allowed in the future. 

How it will impact growth of the community? Are more or less players going to join in with the rules they establish? I guess the trend is growth based on number of entrants is growing setting new participation records.

Live events may be the last venue that might be able to enforce a human vs human poker battle for a decade or so.

I dont imagine it makes big difference knowing opening range of 20bb compared to 25bb, cause its just bottom couple hands and the chance of you getting them is very small. Even if you know all those differences, that doesnt mean your oponent is playing perfect gto and has those hands you think he should have. The funniest fact is that he won with 83o which might be on the edge of perfect gto. Playing hu should be quite easy - play any two cards in position and fold just a bit of trash out of position and main thing - play against oponent, not the cards or ranges 😀
