In light of debate over the threat that real-time assistance (RTA) apps pose to live poker, World Series of Poker (WSOP) officials reiterated their rules for use of solvers at the poker table.

Players at the 2023 WSOP will be penalized if they are caught using or referencing a solver during a live hand. Additionally, the WSOP reserves the right to issue penalties to players who are using solvers between hands.

"If caught using RTA/GTO software during a hand, player will be subject to penalty up to and including DQ (disqualification) / trespass," WSOP said in a prepared statement. "We reserve the right to further penalize a player for using RTA/GTO in any other situation in our sole and absolute discretion. Players may continue to use their device to play wsop.com or use the Caesars Sportsbook app while in/out of a hand."

Niveau 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

A player in late position opened to 12,000 and Ryan Peters went all-in from the Button for just over 90,000. The player in the big blind called, putting Peters at risk and the player in late position got out of the way making it heads up to a flop.

Peters: 2♠2♦
Button: 7♠7♣

Peters was in bad shape against the better pocket pair, and the 3♣4♦6♥ provided no help. When the 8♣ came on the turn Peters had already stood up from his seat and was ready to leave. That changed quickly when the river came the 2♥. Peters had spiked a set on the river to score the double up over his opponent's higher pocket pair.
