Bruno Furth completed from the small blind and Daniel Aharoni checked back in the big blind.
Furth fired out for 200,000 on the 10♠K♠7♣ flop and Aharoni called.
The 6♥ turn checked through for the 9♣ to complete the board. Furth checked and then faced a bet of 300,000 from Aharoni.
Furth gave it some consideration before deciding a fold was best, surrendering the pot to Aharoni.
Bruno Furth raised to 400,000 on the button and Daniel Aharoni reraised to 1,350,000 in the small blind. Furth quickly folded.
Aharoni then raised to 500,000 on the button and Doug Lorgeree called in the small blind. Aharoni continued for 700,000 on the K♦Q♣8♥ flop, and Lorgeree folded.
Aharoni again raised to 500,000 the next hand, and this time received no action.
The final four players have taken their seats and the cards are in the air on Day 4 of Event #42: $10,000 Big O Championship
Level: 29
Blinds: 100,000/150,000
Ante: 150,000
Just four players remain in Event #42: $10,000 Big O Championship at the 2026 World Series of Poker, with Daniel Aharoni holding the chip lead heading into the final day at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
This championship event attracted a record-breaking 456 entries, generating a prize pool of $4,240,800. All four remaining players have already locked up $276,471, but the WSOP gold bracelet and the top prize of $861,287 are just a few spots away.
Aharoni enters Day 4 with 13,050,000, nearly half of the chips in play and more than double the stack of anyone else. Behind him, the remaining three players are not separated by much with Aaron Kupin (5,350,000), Bruno Furth (4,575,000), and Doug Lorgeree (4,460,000) all very much in the hunt with around 30 big blinds.
| Seat | Player | Country | Chip Count | Big Blinds |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Doug Lorgeree | United States | 4,460,000 | 30 |
| 2 | Aaron Kupin | United States | 5,350,000 | 36 |
| 3 | Bruno Furth | United States | 4,575,000 | 31 |
| 4 | Daniel Aharoni | United States | 13,050,000 | 87 |
Furth returns in third position and has the chance to continue his recent success in Omaha tournaments. After winning WSOP bracelets in PLO events in both 2024 and 2025, Furth now sits just a few spots away from adding the prestigious $10,000 Big O Championship to his resume.
Kupin is looking to add another bracelet to his collection after making the final four, while Lorgeree has unfinished business after finishing runner-up in the $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship in 2016.
Cards get back in the air at 1 p.m. local time with play resuming on Level 29 at blinds of 100,000/150,000 with a 150,000 big blind ante. The four remaining players will battle until a champion is crowned and another bracelet is awarded at the 2026 WSOP.
