Stud Eight or Better
Cole Stewart: J♥3♦5♦9♥7♥2♥/Q♦
Shannon Westbrook: Q♠A♥5♠2♠4♦3♥/Xx
Action was joined as the final cards were being dealt out. Stewart was looking to complete a flush for the high, as Westbrook had already made a wheel. His final card was a Q♦, though, and he exited.
At a neighboring table, Tyler Willse was also eliminated.
Following a fan vote, the 10 finalists have been disclosed for the 2023 Poker Hall of Fame, and the list of nominees is mostly similar to last year.
Matt Savage, Brian Rast, Mike Matusow, and Kathy Liebert were among the returnees. But only one individual, whether it be a player or industry personnel, will get in this year. The full list of nominees, with a case made for each candidate, is as follows:
Seven Card Stud
Jorge Ufano: A♣7♠/Q♦A♠5♠9♠/2♥
Michael Parizon: K♦K♠/7♥J♦9♣J♣/2♠
Michael Parizon was heads-up against Jorge Ufano and the rest of Ufano's chips went in on fourth street.
Sixth street gave Parizon two pair to pull ahead of Ufano's aces and seventh bricked out for Ufano — sending him to the rail early in Day 3.
Seven Card Stud
Shannon Westbrook: 8♣5♥/8♠10♥J♠5♠/10♠
Thor William Morstoel: A♣J♥/K♦Q♦4♦2♣/9♥
Morstoel completed. Westbrook raised all in, and Morstoel called.
Morstoel had Westbrook at risk, and Westbrook noted that a ten would eliminate him. Morstoel turned over the 9♥, though, giving the pot to his opponent. Westbrook, whose final card was the 10♠, laughed at possessing his potential elimination card as he pulled in the pot.
Razz
Cole Stewart: 4x5xJx/8x2xKxQx
Yuri Dzivielevski: Ax3x9x/8x9x2x10x
Cole Stewart was heads-up against Yuri Dzivielevski on fourth street. Dzivielevski called a bet from Stewart and then made bets himself on fifth and sixth street, which Stewart called.
Action checked down on seventh and Dzivielevski showed Ax3x9x for a nine, which was best against the 4x5xJx of Stewart for a jack.
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Action was joined on the 4♥3♥Q♥ flop. Gershon Distenfeld checked from the big blind. Stephen Savoy bet from the hijack, and was called by Jose Latorraca from the button. Distenfeld folded.
The turn came K♥. Savoy bet, and Latorraca raised all in for 50,000 more. Savoy made the call.
Jose Latorraca: A♥J♦10♣2♥
Stephen Savoy: A♦Q♠8♠3♦
The A♠ hit the river, but Latorraca's flush sent him the entire pot as neither player made a low.
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Shannon Westbrook limped from under the gun and action folded to Yuri Dzivielevski in the cutoff, who raised. Thor William Morstoel then made it three bets to go from the big blind and Westbrook called cold. Dzivielevski called as well.
The flop came 6♠K♥Q♦ and Morstoel continued for a bet. Westbrook folded and Dzivielevski called.
Morsteol kept firing on the 6♦ turn and this time Dzivielevski folded — conceding the pot to Morstoel.
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Preflop action opened with a raise from Jake Irvin in middle position. Scott Epstein called from the small blind, as did Andrew Barber from the big blind.
The flop came 2♣7♣Q♠, which resulted in a check from all three players. Epstein then bet on the 6♦ turn, and both of his opponents remained in.
The river came the 2♥. Action checked to Irvin, who tossed in a bet. Epstein called, and Andrew let his hand go.
Irvin showed A♥A♦10♣2♠ to take the high, while Epstein took the low with A♠J♦5♥4♠.
At another table, Mark Gregorich was seen busting out.
