The World Poker Tour (WPT) World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas will play down to a winner later today. Each of the remaining six players are guaranteed at least $1,001,050 in prize money, but awaiting the winner is a massive $4,136,000 first-place prize.

The road to the final table was not an easy one. Day 5 of the tournament began with 37 players and took more than 18 hours to play down to the final table of six, which will be both live-streamed and filmed for television. During that marathon, several bad beats were doled out including a brutal one that ended the run of Daniel Negreanu in 17th place.

Here��s a look at some other bad beats or coolers that took place late in the tournament and were reported by the WPT Live Reporting Team.

Yockey Flushed in 12th Place

With a dozen players remaining in Level 31 (300,000/500,000/500,000), Benny Glaser raised to 1 million in the cutoff and Bryce Yockey three-bet to 3.4 million from the button. Adam Adler then four-bet jammed, Glaser folded, and Yockey called off for 10.4 million.

Bryce Yockey: Q?Q?
Adam Adler: 10?10?

Yockey was a big favorite to double, but the K?9?6? flop gave Adler a spade flush draw.

��It��s always a sweat,�� said Yockey, who saw his dreams come to an end after the dealer burned and turned the A?. The meaningless 8? was run out on the river and Yockey hit the rail in 12th for $338,500.

It's not the first time Yockey was the victim of a nasty late beat �� poker fans no doubt remember arguably the worst bad beat of all time Yockey suffered against Josh Arieh deep in the $50,000 Poker Player's Championship.

Kogel Coolered

With 19 players remaining in Level 29 (150,000/300,000/300,000), Glaser raised under the gun and Nate Kogel three-bet from the big blind. Glaser responded with a four-bet to 6.3 million and called when Kogel five-bet jammed for approximately 17 million.

Benny Glaser: A?A?
Nate Kogel: A?K?

The K?10?4? flop gave Kogel some options, but he came up empty when the 3? bricked on the turn followed by the 5? river.

It wasn��t a bad beat, but it was a big cooler deep in the tournament. Kogel took his leave in 19th place for $176,200.

Glaser Flips Out Paggeot

Glaser was flipping well, and that was evidenced by a hand the level before. With 24 players remaining in Level 28, action folded to Michigan��s Corey Paggeot in the small blind and he limped. That prompted Glaser to raise to 1 million in the big blind.

Paggeot woke up with a check-raise to 4 million and Glaser responded with a four-bet to 13 million. Paggeot hit the tank before moving all in and Glaser wasted little time in making the call.

Corey Paggeot: A?K?
Benny Glaser: Q?Q?

It was a flip and Paggeot was looking to hold to stay alive. That proved easier said than done however as the board ran out an unhelpful 7?2?2?J?J?. Glaser extended his chip lead while Paggeot fell in 24th place for $144,300.

Gaspard Discovers the Bad News

With 27 players remaining in Level 28 (125,000/250,000/250,000), Colton Blomberg raised from the cutoff and Adam Adler called from the button. That priced in Jean ��Prince�� Gaspard in the big blind and it was three-way action to a flop of A?9?2?.

Gaspard was first to act and opted to jam for 1.325 million. Blomberg called, Adler folded, and Gaspard discovered the bad news.

Jean Gaspard: 8?5?
Colton Blomberg: Q?10?

Gaspard let it ride of his heart flush draw only to get that sinking feeling that comes upon discovering his opponent held a bigger flush draw. Gaspard could still take the lead with either a five or eight, but that didn��t happen as the K? bricked on the turn followed by the 10? on the river.

Gaspard had to settle for 27th place and $119,300 in prize money.

With 35 players remaining in Level 27 (100,000/200,000/200,000), WPT Ambassador Brad Owen raised to 400,000 from the cutoff only to have Drew O��Connell three-bet to 1.1 million from the button.

Both blinds folded, Owen four-bet to 3.2 million, and O��Connell moved all in for 12.5 million. Owen called off for less and the hands were tabled.

Brad Owen: K?K?
Drew O��Connell: A?K?

Owen got it in good but a beat was in store as the A?3?2? flop paired O��Connell. The 8? turn have Owen a bunch more outs with a diamond flush draw, but the 3? river was not what he needed to continue his run.

Owen finished in 35th place for $99,600, a new career-high score for the popular poker vlogger who brought his lifetime live tournament earnings up to just shy of $300,000 according to the Hendon Mob.

Bonus: Insane Three-Way All In

During the live stream on Day 4, less than 70 players remained when a sick hand was captured on the live stream.
