The board came 4♦2♠3♥5♠K♦ bringing both Lipton and Presterud a wheel to eliminate Yokosawa and chop up his chips.

It's official. After its return in 2023 following a 12-year hiatus, PokerStars has confirmed that The Big Game on Tour is back again this year, with more episodes to be filmed at the NAPT Las Vegas festival.
Ten episodes of the show were filmed last year, with the likes of Phil Hellmuth, Maria Ho, Lex Veldhuis and Sam Grafton all taking part. The show features a lucky Loose Cannon who receives $50,000 and has to survive 150 hands playing $50/$100 with a table of poker pros, ambassadors, and celebrities.
PokerNews spoke with Big Game on Tour judge and commentator James Hartigan ahead of the show's return, and he says he's thrilled the show is back.

Benito Tiagonce: 6♣6♦
Covaciu had the nut flush draw and needed to improve against Tiagonce's flopped set. The 8♣ turn was no help, while the 5♣ river kept Tiagonce in the lead and sent Covaciu to the rail.
