Pasi Laihinen raised to 50,000 under the gun and Mehdi Senhaji called in the hijack.

The flop came 8♦3♥2♥ and Laihinen bet 75,000. Senhaji then raised to 150,000, and Laihinen called.

Both players checked the 10♥ turn. Laihinen then led out for 275,000 on the 4♥ river, and here is where controversy erupted.

Senhaji turned over his 8♠8♥ as he tried to get a reaction from Laihinen. "I'm just thinking. I'm not raising," Senhaji said.

"What's going on?" Laihinen asked as a tournament official was called over to the table. The hand was allowed to proceed, and Senhaji ended up burning through multiple time banks and taking a few minutes before folding his set.

Senhaji was then given a chip penalty for exposing his hand, one orbit worth of blinds and antes being taken from his stack.

Ivan Uzunov made it 50,000 under the gun. Thomas Bazin called in middle position, and Bora Kurtulus defended his big blind.

It checked to Bazin on the 5♣8♥6♦ flop. He bet 80,000, which Kurtulus just called. Uzunov had other plans and raised to 290,000, folding Bazin's J♥9♥ out of the pot.

Kurtulus was not going anywhere, quickly calling to the Q♥ turn. Kurtulus checked, Uzunov fired a bet of 210,000, and Kurtulus instantly moved all in for 600,000. Uzunov double-checked his cards before snap-calling with the covering stack.

Bora Kurtulus: 9♠7♥ All in
Ivan Uzunov: Q♦Q♣

Kurtulus' flopped straight remained the best hand on the K♦ river, earning him a big double-up and leaving Uzunov with roughly 20 big blinds in his stack.

2026 PokerStars SCOOP

The iconic PokerStars Spring Championship Of Online Poker (SCOOP) is one of the most eagerly anticipated festivals on the online poker calendar, thanks partly to its offering of massive prize pools across three weeks of action. Usually, SCOOP runs online at PokerStars throughout May, but the 2026 SCOOP heads to PokerStars two months earlier, with the festival schedule for March 1-25.

PokerStars first ran SCOOP in 2009, and it immediately became a must-play series for tournament grinders of all skill and experience levels. The multi-tiered buy-in structure opens the door for every PokerStars player to experience a world-class poker tournament festival regardless of their bankroll size.

Since its launch in 2009, PokerStars SCOOP has seen more than 143 million PokerStars players buy into over 3,300 tournaments and share a staggering $1.4 billion in prizes, of which more than $216 million has gone to SCOOP champions.

Paawan Bansal made it 55,000 under the gun. David Hu obliged with a call in the small blind, and Thomas Bazin tossed in the extra chips from the big blind.

The K♠5♦8♥5♥ flop and turn were checked to the 2♥ river, where Hu bet 85,000. Bazin's J♦9♦ were quickly mucked, but Bansal called.

Hu tabled A♣8♣ for eights and fives, but Bansal had kings and fives with K♦6♦ and was awarded the small pot.

Traian Stanciu raised to 50,000 in the cutoff, Fabrizio Nuetzel moved all in for 105,000 in the small blind, and Stanciu called.

Fabrizio Nuetzel: A♥3♣ All in
Traian Stanciu: A♠6♣

The 7♦3♥J♠ flop gave Nuetzel the lead with a pair of threes, and the 5♥ turn and 10♠ river earned him a double up.

The next hand, Pasi Laihinen raised to 50,000 in the cutoff and Nuetzel shoved again, this time making it 260,000 on the button. Xiaowen Zhao called in the big blind. "Nine-ten suited," Laihinen said as he got out of the way.

Fabrizio Nuetzel: A♣J♥ All in
Xiaowen Zhao: K♦K♠

Both players ended up with a full house on the 6♥6♣6♦J♣4♥ board, but Nuetzel couldn't overcome Zhao's kings and was eliminated in 25th place.

With four players seeing a flop of 4♠2♠7♣ in a single-raised pot, Eyal Maaravi checked from the big blind. Gianfranco Iaculli bet 120,000 from middle position, Ivan Uzunov folded from the cutoff, and Tobias Peters folded from the button.

Iaculli bet 325,000 when checked to on the 10♣ turn. Maaravi check-raised to 850,000, and Iaculli used a time extension before folding.
