Upeshka De Silva Reportedly Disqualified from WSOP Final Table After Positive COVID-19 Test

De Silva Reveals All
De Silva explained more about the situation in a series of follow-up tweets, with the three-time bracelet-winner explaining that he had been quarantining since Dec. 10 but ultimately tested positive on Dec. 20.
The following day, he immediately reached out to
WSOP Vice President Jack Effel (pictured). The two discussed the situation, and Effel asked De Silva whether he had tested himself that day. De Silva had not, leading Effel to say that he'd see De Silva on Sunday, Dec. 27 for the compulsory final table tests.
De Silva said that he felt "very scared" and was worried about going public with the situation. Although testing negative on Saturday, Dec. 26, a positive result at the official test the following day led to his apparent disqualification.
