: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Darrius Brown got his stack into the middle from the big blind, facing an opponent in middle position.
Middle Position: K♠K♥ 
Darrius Brown: A♣A♥
Brown told the table that he was expecting to see his pocket aces cracked, which looked to be the case after the 7♠K♦3♣ left him behind a set of kings.
The table then reacted as the A♦ turn put Brown back in front with a set of his own. The J♣ river changed nothing, as Brown held to score the knockout.

After three days of action at the Golden Nugget Las Vegas in June, the 2025 Bar Poker Open Vegas World Championship came to a close with Ron Fienberg claiming victory, taking home a six-figure payday of $100,000 and title of BPO Champion. The final day saw only eight players return from a field that started with 1,223 competitors, all gunning for a piece of the $335,375 prize pool.
Fienberg came into the final table as the overwhelming chip leader and never slowed down, eliminating four out of his seven opponents. He finished the job by defeating Bryan Keefer in a short heads-up match to capture the biggest score of his life. Representing his home league - KOntenders Poker USA, the North Carolina resident shared his excitement following the big win.
"Its amazing, it's just everything I dreamed of. Every bar poker open player wants to get here and I cant believe I'm the one here today. I'm stunned and amazed but very, very happy."
