Two Players Booted from WSOP Main Event for Misconduct


Two players were disqualified from the 2019 WSOP Main Event for disruptive behavior. One player was disqualified for throwing a shoe at a dealer. Another player, Georgii Belianin, was disqualified for cheating.

One player was disqualified for throwing a shoe at a dealer. The incident occurred during a hand when the player went all-in out of turn. After being called out by the floor manager, the player began to remove his pants and then threw a shoe at the dealer.

Another player, Georgii Belianin, was disqualified for cheating. Belianin was caught taking chips from another player's stack. Security escorted him out of the event.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
