The field size has climbed to 83 entries with around 75 players remaining and among the latest to join was also the sixth-place finisher of the $25,000 High Roller Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller Billy Tarango.
In the final hand of the previous level, Jared Bleznick had three-bet to 30,000 preflop from the small blind. Eelis Parssinen called in middle position before Dylan Weisman got out of the way in the cutoff.
Bleznick continued for 15,000 on the 6♦10♦A♦ flop and Parssinen called. On the 7♣ turn, Bleznick checked and Parssinen bet 32,000 chips.
Bleznick then raised to 110,000 and received a quick fold from his opponent.
Nível: 6
Blinds: 1,500/3,000
Ante: 3,000
Heads-up to the K♣9♣9♠8♦ turn, Richard Gryko checked in the small blind and then called a bet worth 30,000 by Bryce Yockey on the button. He also checked the 10♦ on the river and Yockey bet 110,000. Gryko used one time bank and check-raised to 325,000, which then sent Yockey into the tank.
Two time banks later, Yockey sent his cards into the muck.
Michael Duek raised to 6,500 preflop and was called by Jared Bleznick in the hijack. The two saw a flop of Q♥10♦8♣, where Duek checked. Bleznick bet 15,000 chips and Duek raised to 50,000.
Bleznick put in a call, after which the J♣ turn and K♣ river were checked down.
Bleznick tabled A♥Q♦Q♣8♥ for a set of queens, taking down the pot when Duek's cards hit the muck.
In the 843rd episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway and Kyna England are joined at Level 9 Studio by Joey Ingram, who served as special co-host to talk about the latest happenings at the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) as well as his new partnership with GTO Wizard.
The biggest story is that of Scott Seiver, who captured his third bracelet of the summer and became just the seventh player in history to win three bracelets in the same year. Could he make history by becoming the only player to win four? He has two more weeks to do it.
Despite winning three bracelets, you might be surprised to learn that Seiver is far from a lock to win the 2024 WSOP Player of the Year; in fact, Jeremy Ausmus, who hasn't won a bracelet this summer, isn't too far behind in points thanks to a bevy of final table appearances. Would a non-bracelet winner winning POY over a three-time winner cause a controversy? The crew discusses that very possibility.
Chad then shares pictures and videos from the exclusive Global Poker party that took place at PokerGO Studio on Sunday night, while Ingram opens up about all things GTO Wizard. As usual, you'll also get your dose of other WSOP bracelet winners and a $25K Fantasy update. Oh, and did we mention talk about Daniel Negreanu, Nick Schulman, and Phil Ivey? Because that's all in there too.
A new PokerNews Podcast will drop twice weekly during the 2024 WSOP every Tuesday and Friday at 8a PT / 11a ET / 4p UK time. Make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you do not miss an episode!
Three ways to the 10♦5♥5♠6♥ turn, Joni Jouhkimainen had bet 35,500 only for recent arrival Lou Garza to make it 90,000 to go. It folded back to Jouhkimainen and the Finn reluctantly folded.
After the hand was over, Garza chatted with Aaron Katz and they both agreed to a last longer side bet with, "must cash." Garza is off to a decent start after picking up this pot.
Richard Gryko bet the pot for 97,500 on the Q♠7♣6♥K♠ turn and Erick Lindgren reluctantly piled in his remaining stack of around 110,000 for Gryko to call.
Erick Lindgren: 10♠10♥9♣8♠ 
Richard Gryko: 6♠6♣5♦5♥
Gryko was ahead with the bottom set but had to dodge plenty of outs. He did so thanks to the 4♦ river to send Lindgren to the rail.
Isaac Haxton, Najeem Ajez, and Ben Lamb had created a pot of more than 100,000 chips when they went to a flop of K♠2♣7♥, which checked around.
Haxton then bet 56,000 on the 10♠ turn and only Ajez called. On the 4♦ river, Haxton virtually shoved all in for roughly 215,000 chips.
Ajez quickly folded and Haxton was awarded the large pot.
Since the last break, two more levels have opened to accommodate the growing field which is now up to 72 entries. Among the last to join the action were Jim Collopy, Lou Garza and Richard Gryko.
