Matthew Hunt has been playing with much patience these two days of battle, even making quads against Chino Rheem earlier in the day.

Mustapha Kanit had opened it up with a raise and Hunt went all in against the shorter stack of Kanit.

Kanit wasted no time with making the call, leaving his charcuterie plate to wait.

Mustapha Kanit: A♣K♦
Matthew Hunt: J♥J♦

The wheel spun and a board ran 8♥4♦5♦9♦3♣, in favor of Hunt and one of the field's most accomplished players hit the rail.

Shortly after this hand, he put a different opponent to a decision for all their chips on a king-high board and, according to the opponent, they folded queens.

Nível 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Phil Galfond has yet to make an appearance at the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP), and as he told PokerNews, right now he has no plans to play live.

“But who knows, plans change,” added Galfond, who has been playing online at WSOP.com.

While Galfond hasn’t been at the WSOP – well, at least Phil as his wife, Farah Galfond, has been competing – the three-time bracelet winner is still weighing in by his relatively new newsletter “PG’s Takes of the Week.”

One of the topics the online poker legend, who prior to the WSOP inserted himself in some drama involving Doug Polk and Charlie Carrel with a pointed letter, was that of the Poker Hall of Fame. Right now, the public is being solicited for nomination.

“The nominations for the Poker Hall of Fame are now open, presenting voters with a familiar dilemma: there are simply too many great options to choose from,” Galfond wrote before giving his picks.
