Daniel Negreanu suffered a major upset at the WSOP Online $25,000 High Roller final table, finishing fourth and missing out on his ninth career gold bracelet. Casimir Seire emerged victorious, winning $906,647. Negreanu's bracelet run didn't end with the 2026 WSOP concluding in Las Vegas this July. The Poker Hall of Famer attempted to become the 10th player in history to win nine WSOP gold bracelets at the GGPoker WSOP Online $25,000 High Roller final table on Wednesday. However, two brutal hands cost him the tournament. Meanwhile, Casimir Seire won the bracelet and the $906,647 first-place prize. Negreanu streamed the final table on his YouTube channel, starting with approximately 60 big blinds and a third-place chip stack. After the first break, he won a huge pot from Parahat Nurmuhammedov (J♣7♣) with pocket queens, building a monster stack. Nurmuhammedov check-raised on the flop of 5♣6♥5♦ and then made a pair on the turn with J♦. That hand was fatal for him, as it ultimately cost him all his chips and gave Negreanu the lead with seven players remaining. Negreanu, who won his eighth bracelet this summer, suffered some costly bad luck. He had A♥K♠, Ole Schemion went all-in with A♠Q♠, and Roman Emelyanov went all-in with 6♥6♦. But the board opened with A♣10♠Q♥9♥9♦, sending Emelyanov to seventh place for $190,599, Schemion's chip stack grew, and Negreanu fell to one of the shortest stacks. However, Schemion was quickly eliminated in sixth place, winning $247,176, while Negreanu doubled up in a run. But with five players remaining, he was still only fourth in chips. Seire gained a huge chip lead and used it to dominate the table. His opponents didn't have enough chips to mount much of a comeback. Negreanu persisted and had some luck in the run, including eliminating Pedro Neves to finish fifth ($320,548). But his momentum vanished in one hand, and his bracelet dream was shattered. Seire continued to dominate with 9♣8♦, forcing Negreanu to go all-in with 27 big blinds. When "DNegs" called with 10♦10♥, Seire was at a serious disadvantage. But a lucky board of A♦9♥6♣8♠K♣ gave Seire two pair, ending Negreanu's bracelet hopes.
