Where the new @WSOP POY formula is misaligned with mixed game events (as currently structured):
1st in $10K Turbo Bounty:
1 day, $880k: 1177 pts
1st in $1.5K Closer:
2 days, $650k: 1128 pts
1st in $10K LHE + 2nd in $50K PPC:
8 days, $1.2M: 1126 pts

Takeaways from the new @WSOP POY formula. Overall, it puts more weight into large field & high roller events. A few of the key differences:

If the newly announced 2026 @WSOP POY Formula applied to the 2025 WSOP: @TheGrinder44 would be Player of the Year
Non-FT cashes are worth less
In 2025, @shaundeeb earned 418 points for two deep runs (12/575 in $2.5K O8/Stud8, 31/1176 in $1.5K PLO8), equivalent to finishing 6/900 in a $5K NLH. In the new formula, the $5K FT would be worth 2x as many points.
If the newly announced 2026 @WSOP POY Formula applied to the 2025 WSOP: @TheGrinder44 would be Player of the Year
The new formula: wsop.com/2026-poy/
Overall, it puts more emphasis on FTs in high buy-in & large field events, and reduces the value of non-FT cashes. Online events no longer count, but all live cashes do (no more top 10 limit).

Potential tweak to the 2026 @WSOP POY formula: a small point penalty for entering an event.
- Levels the playing field for exceptional results with lower volume
- New strategic element for players chasing POY to adjust to
Incidentally, @TheGrinder44 would be POY with the adjustment this year:
Final 2025 @WSOP POY Standings. @shaundeeb wins in an incredibly tight race over @BennyGlaser, @martinkabrhell & @TheGrinder44
For the criticisms of the formula: Grinder's 1/1 in Main & PPC (2982 pts) counted for more than Deeb's 1/2/2/2 (2861 pts) and slightly less than Glaser's 1/1/1 (3039 pts). @shaundeeb ultimately won because he didn't have a single min-cash in his 10 counting scores (Benny had 3 and Grinder had 4)
By our math: @shaundeeb is the 2025 WSOP POY
WSOP POY Update: Still alive with 115 remaining in the Closer, @BennyGlaser has hit the top 20% cash threshold and will earn at least 249.15 pts. He'll drop a 61.8 pt score and move to 4,168.8, just 25 points behind @shaundeeb
