Nível 20

Omaha Hi-Lo

James Obst opened from the cutoff and Josh Arieh three-bet on the button as he tried to goad his opponent into folding.

"I hope you have KxQx6x3x," Arieh said. "It would probably be a good laydown."

Obst called and led out on the flop of 3♥K♦10♠. Arieh raised all in and Obst called to put the recent five-time bracelet winner at risk.

Josh Arieh: A♥6♦6♠4♣
James Obst: A♠10♦5♦2♠

"I'm in bad shape," Arieh sighed before the board ran out 9♥10♣ to improve Obst to trips and confirm Arieh's elimination. "GG, guys."

No Rast for the Wicked

Pot-Limit Omaha

Brian Rast had been stuck in traffic on the way back and the floor was called to determine whether or not his first hand after the break was dead. That was then indeed the case before they carried on without any further drama.

Rast opened to 125,000 and Ray Dehkharghani defended the big blind. On the 8♦7♦4♣ flop, Dehkharghani opted to check-call for 200,000 and checked again the 10♦ turn after some consideration. Rast now fired a bet of 505,000 and that won the pot.

Phil Ivey Closing in on 11th Bracelet; Rast Playing for the Poker Hall of Fame?

JonSofen

Nível 21

Phil Ivey could make history Thursday at the $50,000 Poker Players Championship if he were to take down the bracelet, which would be his first title at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) since 2014.

The widely accepted poker G.O.A.T. is one of three players — Johnny Chan and Doyle Brunson are the others — tied for second all-time with 10 WSOP bracelets. Phil Hellmuth, with 16 titles, is the record holder. But there could be just one player sitting in second place within the next 24 hours.
