Moshe Knocks a Player to the Curb

Nível 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The player under the gun raised to 1,600 and the early position player and the big blind, Asi Moshe both called. The flop came out J♣4♠3♦ and Moshe checked, the player under the gun bet 7,000 and the early position player shoved all in for 17,000 and Moshe made the call.

Early position player: 3♣6♣
Asi Moshe: 2♥4♥

The early position player had a pair of threes and Moshe had the pair of fours heading to the turn. The turn and the river were the 2♦J♦ and Moshe had the best two pair with jacks and fours.

Moshe stated afterwards that the player had been super splashy the entire time he was at the table, hence why he made a loose call.

2022 Record Already Smashed

Nível 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The 2023 WSOP has done it again. Last year's field of 1,364 has already been smashed for this year as the entries are now pushing 1,600 with over four hours of registration left. This will create a massive prize pool for these players to get a chance for a big score at the end of the summer.

Double Knockout for Yuan

Nível 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

On a flop of K♣Q♣10♥, Julian Labussiere was already all in and Alex Schwint was heads-up against Xizhe Yuan on the side.

Yuan then bet 15,000 into the pot and Schwint moved all in for a little more.

"Aghh," Yaun sighed as he made the call to put him at risk, thinking he was no good as everyone flipped over their cards.

Julian Labussiere: 8♥8♣
Alex Schwint: Q♦6♦
Xizhe Yuan: A♦A♣

Much to his surprise, Yuan was actually well in the lead with his aces, and the turn J♦ definitely made him more comfortable as it gave him Broadway and the river 5♣ changed nothing. He was then awarded the entire pot while Labussiere and Schwint made their exit.

Peters Picks up Pot

Nível 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

After a raise and two calls preflop, the players checked through the flop of 5♦A♦10♣ and went to the turn 6♦.

David Peters then led out for 4,500 and the action folded around to Fabrice Bigot on the button who went into the tank.

After a while, a player called the clock on him but he folded shortly after to award Peters the pot.

Middle position: J♣10♣

Nível 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

The player in the cutoff raised to 1,600 and Alex Petracelli called from the small blind. The flop came out 6♦5♦4♦ and both players checked.

The turn brought the 3♠ and Petracelli took a stab at the pot for 2,000 and was called by the cutoff.

On the river Petracelli checked and the cutoff stated, "Well I guess I am forced to check with that board." Petracelli turned over 8♥8♣ and the cutoff mucked.
