  • Season 22 WPT Player of the Year Leaders

The race for World Poker Tour (WPT) Season 22 Player of the Year, with two events remaining, is much tighter than a year ago when Bin Weng had things pretty much locked up heading into the festivities at Wynn Las Vegas.

Yunkyu Song, however, is currently in the lead entering the WPT Prime Championship, which began on Sunday. But he'll need to hold off close competition from a handful of skilled pros, including Landon Tice and three-time WPT champion Eric Afriat.

Tournaments that Can Still Impact the Race

The WPT World Championship festival is currently underway in Las Vegas, and the series marks the conclusion of Season 22. As such, those chasing Song are running out of opportunities.

There are two events remaining that will be factored into the final standings — the $1,100 WPT Prime Championship and $10,400 WPT World Championship. The Player of the Year standings take into consideration Main Tour and Prime Tour, both of which host events around the world.

Day 1c of the WPT Prime Championship, a $5 million guaranteed tournament took place Tuesday. More than 2,800 players registered for the session, bringing the tally for the tournament above 5,800 with one day of registration remaining. The WPT World Championship, the final shot to earn POY points, kicks off Dec. 14.

There are a number of players still mathematically in the race. In fact, according to WPT reporter Tim Fiorvanti, 47 players could overtake Song by winning either of the two remaining events, barring a deep run from the leader. But there's no doubt Song is a heavy favorite with a sizable advantage over the competition.

Song, who final tabled the WPT bestbet Scramble Championship in Jacksonville last month, has 2,275 points. That puts him 350 points ahead of second place Dylan Smith, who bagged an average stack on Day 1a of the WPT Prime Championship. Afriat, who earned his seventh top three WPT finish in Jacksonville, is next in line at 1,750 points. Tice sits in fourth place at 1,700, and Dan Stavila rounds out the top five with 1,525 points.

The "it's anyone's ballgame" saying is technically true. But if your name is Yunkyu Song, winner of the WPT Prime Playground Championship in October, you're feeling more confident in victory than anyone else. That is because there's a solid chance he could win POY without even cashing in the Prime or World Championship. But if he runs deep in either of the final POY events, he would make it nearly impossible for anyone else to catch up.

PREVIOUS:In modern rummy, where speed is frequently valued, players should try to meld their cards as fast as possible while simultaneously monitoring possible melds in the future. This calls for striking a balance between forming quick sets and runs and thinking about how to adjust in the event that opponents unexpectedly leave the game. Moreover, taking advantage of any special features that digital platforms offer, like power-ups or special cards, can give you an advantage over rivals and improve gameplay in general. A number of elements that appeal to modern audiences have contributed to Rummy Modern's recent rise in popularity. The primary advantage of digital platforms is their convenience; players don't need to gather with friends or use physical cards to access games on their computers or smartphones. Rummy can now be enjoyed by people at any time, whether they are lounging at home or on their commute, thanks to its accessibility.NEXT:The goal is simple: players must minimize the number of points in their hands when another player goes out while forming valid sets and runs. A run is made up of three or more consecutive cards of the same suit, whereas a set is made up of three or four cards of the same rank but different suits. A draw pile is created from the remaining cards after players are dealt a predetermined number of cards at the start of each round, typically seven or ten. Each player takes turns selecting a card from the discard or draw pile, after which they discard one card from their hand. The round is over when one player successfully melds all of their cards into sets and runs that are valid.
