Michael Bohmerwald opened up the action with a raise to 2,500 from middle position. David Stefanski flatted the bet on the button, before small blind Nicholas Palma made it 11,500 to go.
The big blind got out of the way, and Bohmerwald went into the tank. He asked to see Palma's stack, before throwing forward a four-bet to 27,500. Both of his opponents quickly folded.

Both players checked the turn 4♠ and river 3♦ and Queen tabled 6♠6♦ for sevens and sixes to win the pot.

Espen Jorstad memorably won the WSOP Main Event in 2022. But the victory, which netted him $10 million and a gold bracelet, didn't come without some difficult decisions.
The champion, in a GTO Wizard video, broke down the ICM implications of his decisions along the way at the final table four years ago.

Elia Ahmadian opened to 2,000 under the gun, and received calls from both of the players to his left: AJ Paleatsos and Jonathan Moritz. Aubrey Williams also defended her big blind.
The J♠10♣7♣ flop checked through to the 8♣ turn, and once again each player tapped the table.
The 7♠ river was dealt, and Williams open-folded her hand. "Check or bet," said the dealer, and gave her a warning not to do so again. Elia Ahmadian then bet out for a single 1,000 chip. Paleatsos made it 4,200 to go, and action folded back to Ahmadian. "I should've done what you did," he said to Williams, before letting his cards go.
