Last year marked 11 years since PokerNews started publishing predictions ahead of the World Series of Poker (WSOP), and with three days to go they're back again ahead of the 2023 WSOP.

With the WSOP moving to its new home on the Las Vegas Strip at the Horseshoe and Paris, we asked nine members of the PokerNews team for their thoughts and predictions.

This year we spoke to Global Live Events Manager Shirley Ang, US Executive Editor and former WSOP bracelet winner Chad Holloway, Live Reporting Executive Matt Hansen, staff editors Matthew Pitt, Jon Sofen, Calum Grant and Connor Richards, and Community Manager Jesse Fullen.

Seiver Eliminated After Heated Hand With Sternheimer

Niveau 12

Omaha Hi-Lo Eight-or-Better

Scott Seiver was heard yelling across the table after a heated hand against Philip Sternheimer where the players disagreed on the betting action that took place on the river.

According to discussion from those at the table, Seiver three-bet on the river during an Omaha Hi-Lo Eight-or-Better hand and tabled his hand after a four-bet from Sternheimer, who then tabled the winner.

Seiver said he thought Sternheimer had only called and added that he would have folded to a four-bet, while Sternheimer thought he should be committed to calling the four-bet.

"You can call the floor or whatever but I'm done," said Seiver. "I paid you the right amount."

Seiver was left short and eliminated in the next hand as Sternheimer continued to discuss the hand with Kane Kalas and others at the table.

"Of course," Sternheimer said when asked if he thought Seiver was calling his raise. "He said his hand."

Po Puts Elezra on Fumes After Short Stack Battle

Niveau 12

Big O

Picking action up on a flop of 3♦K♥9♦, Eli Elezra bet enough to put Kenneth Po all in for just under 10,000 chips. Po took his time before making the call.

Kenneth Po: A♥9♣5♦3♣3♥
Eli Elezra: A♣K♣J♠9♠2♠

Elezra joked that Po had slow-rolled him with his set of threes given how short-stacked he was, and after the board completed Q♣2♥, Po's set of threes defeated Elezra's kings and nines to take down a pot that's left the Poker Hall of Famer with crumbs.
