Jeffrey Trudeau raised to 30,000 on the button and chip leader Bryce Yockey inquired about his stack size before he called in the big blind. On the J♥8♣6♣ flop, both checked before Yockey bet the 8♥ turn for 85,000, Trudeau called.
On the 2♦ river, Yockey bet another 245,000 and Trudeau called after some consideration.
Yockey tabled the K♠10♦8♦5♠ for trip eights and Trudeau immediately said "it's good, nice hand," before tossing his cards into the muck.
Isaac Haxton chopped with Dante Goya when both players made broadway on a three-flush board.
Soon after and in the last hand of the previous level, James Casement raised to 30,000 first to act and Yuriy Anisimov called from the big blind. They checked to the 5♦4♦4♠9♥8♦ river on which Anisimov bet and Casement folded.
Boris Angelov raised the pot to 42,000 in the hijack and Jim Collopy called in the cutoff. Kazuhiko Yotsushika then repotted to 186,000 on the button and Angelov reluctantly folded. Collopy went into the tank for nearly two minutes before also letting go as well.
The final day of the 2023 World Series of Poker Paradise has arrived and four of the highly sought after gold bracelets will be awarded. One of them is up for grabs in Event #13: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship, which drew a total of 104 entries for a prize pool of $1,040,000.
Only 13 players made it through last night and have locked up a six-figure cash prize on The Bahamas. At least $19,800 is guaranteed, but the winner will take home a top prize of $277,700 for their efforts. Bryce Yockey leads the way as the only finalist with a seven-figure stack as he bagged up 1,085,000 last night. He is followed by Jim Collopy (842,000) and Kazuhiko Yotsushika (692,000). WSOP bracelet winner Stefan Lehner (198,000) as well as popular vlogger Jeff Gross (186,000) are also among those returning at 2 p.m. for the finale.
On top of the cash prizes as part of the prize pool, GGPoker's WSOP Paradise Parlay promotion is also promising further incentives. Josh Arieh, for example, can lock up $25,000 by reaching the final eight and would claim $100,000 if he were to win his third WSOP bracelet in 2023 and 7th overall. He returns fifth in chips with 527,000.
The same opportunity awaits Isaac Haxton (327,000), who has a victory and seventh place to his name during the summer series in Las Vegas. Jim Collopy (842,000) also has a shot at the six-figure bonus as well, with one final table appearance prior.

The top 16 spots were paid and and Gergo Nagy bubbled while a trio of players cashed for $18,100. Chris Brewer, Ioannis Angelou-Konstas as well as Sam Soverel made it to the money but bowed out before bagging and tagging in the early morning hours.
There are 20 minutes left in Level 17 at blinds of 6,000/12,000 with a big blind ante of 12,000 after a hard stop at 4 a.m. local time. All levels last 30 minutes until a winner has been crowned and the PokerNews live reporting team will be on the floor to provide as many key hands as possible.
