Hebert Accumulating Chips

Nível 19 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 0 ante

Mark "Nostradonkus" Liedtke limped in from the hijack and Kevin "TheRealKG" Gerhart did the same from the small blind. Joseph "Kolebear" Hebert raised to 24,000 from the big blind, receiving a call from Liedtke while Gerhart opted to fold.

The flop came A♠Q♠2♣ and Hebert fired a pot-sized bet of 54,000 to force a fold from Liedtke and take down the pot.

Hebert passed the 600,000 mark with this pot and seems poised to make another deep online bracelet event run.

Jennifer Harman Remembers Doyle: "He Was Like a Marshmallow Puppy Dog to Me"

[user153638]

Nível 20 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Poker Hall of Famer Jennifer Harman has seen the World Series of Poker (WSOP) in all of its iterations. Harman won two bracelets when the World Series played at Binion's Horseshoe in downtown Las Vegas and made several final tables after the transition to Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in the mid-2000s.

Now, 27 years after her first WSOP final table in 1996, Harman finds herself at yet another World Series rendition at the rebranded Horseshoe Casino on the Strip. And while the golden U-shaped emblem outside the hotel is by and large the same, Harman said the modern venue doesn't compare to the WSOP's original home.

"It was such a cool atmosphere playing at Binion's; it's just nothing like that," Harman told PokerNews. "Now it's just like, you know, poker blew up and it's more ... it's still a really cool atmosphere, but it's just different. It's not a small room, musty, that kind of stuff. But it's still really cool. Poker's still really popular, so that's a pretty awesome thing."

PokerNews caught up with Harman last week as she played Day 1 of Event #25: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship at the 2023 WSOP to ask about her summer schedule, pick for the Poker Hall of Fame and her memories with the late Doyle Brunson.

Tom "lultaxpayers" Hall: Q♦Q♥4♦4♥

The board ran out A♣6♦6♣8♦5♦. Ambrogi had flopped top-pair but Hall made a flush on the river to send his opponent to the rail and collect his chips.

Nível 21 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

Qinghai "011POKERDR" Pan raised from the cutoff to 25,000 finding "Mieux" in the big blind who retaliated with a reraise to 80,000, leaving themselves only 58,285 behind

The flop came 3♣4♣7♦ and "Mieux" continued their story and open jammed for the rest. Pan called.

Qinghai "011POKERDR" Pan: A♣K♣9♠8♣
Mieux: Q♣Q♠6♣6♥

Mieux was currently ahead with their pair of queens, but by virtue of a 5♥ turn and a 10♣ river, Pan's ace-high flush sent Mieux's queen-high flush in the muck and Mieux to the rail.
