2023 NAPT Las Vegas
The Oracle Red Bull Formula One racing team released a promotional video ahead of November’s Las Vegas Grand Prix and it's an action-packed preview of what F1 has to offer when it invades the Strip this fall.
Readers might remember hearing about the race car tearing through the Wynn Las Vegas last November. It appears that was part of the production for Red Bull's epic race through Las Vegas.
Nível: 9
Blinds: 600/1,200
Ante: 1,200
Tom Orpaz sat down for his first hand at the conclusion of the break and raised to 2,800 from late position before Ping Liu called from the next seat over. Sam Soverel tossed in chips from the big blind to see a flop and it was A♥Q♥8♥.
Soverel checked and Orpaz bet 3,500 to a quick call from Liu. Soverel folded and action was heads up.
Both remaining players checked the 10♥ turn and the 5♣ river before Orpaz turned over 9♥9♠ and announced his flush. Liu tossed the losing hand in the muck and Orpaz took the pot.

Dylan Destefano opened to 2,500 in the hijack and Samuel Laskowitz called on the button as Calvin Lee came along from the big blind.

The 10♠ river completed the board and Lee sized up to 21,000. Destefano went in the tank for about a minute and folded.

Sung Joo Hyun opened to 2,700 on the button and Sam Soverel called out of the big blind.
Soverel checked on the flop of 2♦A♣8♣ and Hyun continued for 1,800. Soverel called. Soverel checked again on the 6♥ turn and Hyun checked back.
Soverel checked once more on the 7♦ river and Hyun bet 3,000. Soverel check-raised to 12,000 and was met with a snap-call from Hyun. Soverel quickly tossed his cards to the muck for Hyun to win the pot without showdown.
"Not even a charity tank," Soverel commented as Hyun told him he had pocket sevens. "I was drawing dead the whole way."

Tom Orpaz was one of the latest players to join the field but wasted no time doubling up through Ping Liu to his immediate left.
Orpaz held 5♣3♣ for a flush on the board of 8♣7♦9♣4♣2♥ to put a beat on Liu with Q♣Q♦.
"I was behind," Orpaz commented.
Not long after, Kitty Kuo was eliminated by Jesse Lonis at the same table as he increased his chip lead.

Action was heads up with a big pot that looked to be around 40,000 and a full board of 3♣3♦9♠8♦5♣ when Tom Orpaz fired 15,000 and Sung Joo Hyun went into the tank. After a few moments of thought, Hyun tossed his hand in the muck to give Orpaz another pot in his first level of play.
On another table, Kyung Lee shoved from the big blind with more than Mark Ioli in the small blind. Ioli called for his last 19,700.
Mark Ioli: A♠J♦
Kyung Lee: A♦4♥
The board ran out 2♥9♥8♦Q♣K♠ and Ioli held on with ace-jack to secure the double.
