PokerNews has been bringing you live reporting from the biggest poker tournaments for almost 20 years, and it's time for our latest addition to the live update product with the launch of PokerNews emojis.
Ever been scrolling through the PokerNews live updates and thought to yourself "Wow, what a punt!" 🏉
Or been following your favorite player only for them to bust? 💔
Or had to deal with an egregiously long Christoph Vogelsang tank? 🐢
Well, now you can show exactly how you're feeling with the launch of 24 bespoke reaction emojis which are available to be used on every single post in our live reporting.
These allow readers to react to individual hands, conveying emotions, reactions and expressions that were previously confined to Twitter threads, text messages or WhatsApp groups.
From classic Thumbs Up and Heart to poker-specific Fish and Money Bag emojis, we've worked hard to find the ideal selection for you to use while enjoying our updates.
The players have been sent on a 15-minute break.
Camille Godin had opened to 150,000 under the gun, and Stephen Freeman had called in the cutoff when Yannick Jobin piled in his stack of 2,020,000 from the big blind.
Godin quickly folded, but Freeman asked for a count, pondered out loud for a few moments, and put his opponent on pocket tens before making the call.
Yannick Jobin: A♦K♦
Stephen Freeman: A♣J♦
Jobin did not have pocket tens, dominating Jobin instead. The 8♣5♥3♣6♠A♥ flop saw Jobin's Big Slick hold up, giving him a big double-up and surpassing Freeman in the counts.

Nikolaos Angelou jammed in his stack of 950,000 from the small blind and was called by Adrian Ziemichod in the big blind after a small tank.
Nikolaos Angelou: A♦5♥
Adrian Ziemichod: 9♦7♦
Angelou paired up on the J♥A♥K♠ flop to increase his lead, securing the pot on the 2♦ turn. The 8♥ river rolled off as Ziemichod paid his debts, virtually switching stacks with Angelou.

Stephen Freeman raised to 100,000 in middle position and called when Florian Duta made it 325,000 to go from the cutoff. The flop fell 10♣10♥6♥, where Duta continued for 250,000.
Freeman check-raised to 600,000, and Duta called to the 4♠ turn. Freeman seemed to slow down, checking over to Duta again, prompting Duta to bet 550,000.
Freeman then shipped in 1,200,000, however, and Duta could only laugh as he quickly mucked his cards.
