Action was opened when WSOP Main Event Champion Jamie Gold opened under the gun to 6,000. It folded all the way to the button who called and they were off to a flop heads up.
The 9♦8♠A♠ landed on the flop and Gold wasted little time before continuing for 10,000. The button called.
The 9♣ hit the turn and after a moment Gold led again for 13,000. The button called.
The river came an A♣ and after a short tank and some chip counting Gold moved all in for about 29,000.
His opponent went into the tank for almost two minutes before but eventually found a fold.
Gold dragged a healthy pot after barreling three streets.

Action was opened in middle position to 5,000. It folded to Franklyn Greenaway in the small blind who called and the big blind called.
The 10♦9♣5♦ landed on the flop and action quickly checked through to an A♣ turn. Once again the action checked through to a Q♦ river.
Greenaway went through a few thoughts out loud before he landed on a bet of 5,000. The big blind folded but the original raiser put in the chips for a call and got shown A♠6♠ by Greenaway and mucked.

The PokerStars North American Poker Tour (NAPT) is returning after a 12-year hiatus, and where better to get the show on the road than fabulous Las Vegas? November 4-12 are the dates to highlight in your diaries because that is when NAPT Las Vegas heads to Resorts World in "Sin City."
The 2023 NAPT Las Vegas takes place just one week before the most anticipated Formula 1 Grand Prix in history, which takes place through the streets of Las Vegas. PokerStars will be there, Oracle Red Bull Racing will be there, will you?
Although primarily aimed at the North American market, the NAPT is open to all, and PokerNews expects players to travel from far and wide to get involved in this historic rebirth. A $1,650 buy-in NAPT Las Vegas Main Event runs from November 6-11, and a $550 PokerStars Cup is scheduled for November 9-12, with a $5,300 High Roller attracting the biggest names between November 10-12. The full 2023 NAPT Las Vegas schedule will be released in due course.
Steve Preiss, Vice President for PokerStars North America, cannot wait for the first NAPT in 12 years to shuffle up and deal at Resorts World.
"We are delighted to announce the return of this iconic series and once again hold the NAPT for poker players in North America. We're working hard to ensure this is a spectacular series and can't wait to head to Las Vegas to get the show on the road."
