Almeida Averts Disaster

Level 22 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Alvaro Almeida was under the gun and had raised to an unknown amount, placing two T-25,000 chips in front of him. Joe O'Neill, who told PokerNews that he folded kings preflop correctly yesterday, was in the cutoff and made it 127,000 to go.

Almeida was in the tank for several minutes before announcing a call and the {q-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop was dealt. Almeida instantly led all-in for 249,000 chips and O'Neill snap called with the covering stack.

Alvaro Almeida: {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Joe O'Neill: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Top pair for Almeida but he was in dire shape against the overpair of O'Neill.

O'Neill let out an expletive as the {a-Clubs} turn hit the felt, turning the tables massively in Almeida's favor. The {4-Clubs} river did nothing to amend the situation and Almeida was as happy as could be that he was still in contention for the final table.

Beresford Rivers Flush to Double Up

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Conor Beresford
Conor Beresford

Conor Beresford was all in against John O'Shea preflop, with Beresford at risk of elimination.

Conor Beresford: {j-Spades}{9-Spades}
John O'Shea: {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Hearts}{q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{10-Spades}. O'Shea hit a pair of queens on the flop, but spades on the turn and river gave Beresford the runner-runner flush and the double up to an above average stack.

PN Podcast: Shaun Deeb Trashes $10,000 & Guest Vanessa Selbst Returns to Talk WSOP

Level 23 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

On the latest PokerNews Podcast episode, Chad Holloway, Jesse Fullen, and Connor Richards talk about the grand opening of the Horseshoe Las Vegas, Garrett Adelstein's interview with Doug Polk, and recent winners from the 2023 PokerStars USA SCOOP.

Plus, Shaun Deeb has been in the headlines this week for a few reasons. First, he won the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Circuit $1,700 Main Event at Turning Stone for $276K, and then he made a body fat percentage loss prop bet with Bill Perkins, one that could see him either lose $100,000 or possibly win $1,000,000! Finally, he actually talks to Connor about nearly losing $10,000, which had to be fished out of a trash can. Find out the story behind what happened from Deeb himself.

Also, hear from the legendary Vanessa Selbst, who stepped away from poker years ago but has recently dipped her toe back in as a part of the WSOP Thrill Team. Selbst talks to Chad about what inspired her to join, what she thinks of the game nowadays, and her plans for poker, including a likely return to the WSOP this summer. Don't miss your chance to hear from one of the best to ever play the game.
