Nível 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Lester Edoc started the action in the hijack with a raise to 2,000 and Jamie Kerstetter called in the cutoff. Fernando Rodriguez three-bet to 6,000 in the big blind and after Edoc called, Kerstetter shoved for 38,000.

Rodriguez didn't take long to call and Edoc got out of the way for the following showdown:

Jamie Kerstetter: A♣J♠
Fernando Rodriguez: A♥K♣

Kerstetter was in bad shape for her tournament's life, and busted after the board brought her no help with 8♦7♦6♥Q♦3♠

Nível 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Three ways to the 10♣4♥4♦ flop, the action checked to Jack Sinclair on the button and he bet 2,000. Jia Jun called out of the big blind before Alex Keating in the hijack check-raised to 7,000 off a short stack. Sinclair folded whereas Jun raised big to 75,000, which had Keating's stack of around 28,000 easily covered.

The call by Keating followed and the cards were exposed.

Alex Keating: A♥A♦
Jia Jun: 4♣3♣

Neither the 8♠ turn nor the K♦ river came to the rescue of Keating, who quickly left the tournament area. Farhad Jamasi was also no longer found on the same table either.

Nível 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action was picked up in a multiway pot as one player raised to 2,000 which saw four players call including Julian Aguirre on the button and Espen Jorstad in the big blind.

The flop rolled out 10♦6♦9♠ and action checked around to Aguirre who bet 8,700. In the big blind, Jorstad raised to 26,300 and all other players folded. With action back on Aguirre, he moved all in for 64,000 effective and Jorstad shook his head.

"I'm not happy about it," Jorstad responded while reluctantly putting his chips in the middle to put himself at risk.

Espen Jorstad: 6♥6♣
Julian Aguirre: 8♥7♦

The board ran out A♥8♦ and the straight held up for Aguirre against Jorstad's set of sixes.

The pot was pushed to Aguirre while Jorstad wished his table luck as the 2022 WSOP Main Event champion exited the field, ensuring that a new champion would emerge.

Nível 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Ignas Jasinevicius and an opponent in early position built a pot of around 30,000 heading to the turn on a board of 5♠5♥6♣4♣. Jasinevicius, on the button, bet 17,000 and his opponent called.

The river came the 5♣ and action checked to Jasinevicius again, who now checked back. His opponent showed 9♣8♣ for the rivered flush, but Jasinevicius turned over Q♣Q♥, making a full house on the same river card to take down the big pot.

Nível 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The action was picked up in a pot of over 140,000 on a board that read Q♥8♥4♣9♠. A player in the hijack checked to Allen Nielson on the button who bet 65,000 and his opponent moved all in for roughly 96,000. Nielson quickly made the call to put his opponent at risk.

"Do you have queens," asked the hijack before the cards were turned over.

"Yep," replied Nielson

There was a bit of confusion before the cards were finally tabled because the hijack assumed that Neilson had pocket queens.

Hijack: K♦K♠
Allen Nielson: A♥Q♣

The hijack was so relieved to see his cowboys were way out front, however, the river fell like a ton of bricks when the Q♠ rolled off to give Nielson trips and send his opponent to the exit in brutal fashion.

Nielson scooped the massive pot to bring his stack well over the half a million mark.

Nível 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

It folded to Jay Romano in the cutoff who raised to 3,000 before Jiachen Gong decided to shoved on the button for his last 13,500. It came back to Romano who tanked for a minute and made the call:

Jiachen Gong: 4♣4♠
Jay Romano: 7♦4♦

Gong had the best hand and found no bad surprise on the board J♥J♦9♠Q♦6♥ to take the needed double up.
