Haroldo Perez Flores raised it up from the cutoff and Darrin Gerr three-bet to 26,000 out of the big blind. Flores four-bet shoved all in for 92,500 and Gerr made the call after getting a count.
Haroldo Perez Flores: 7♠7♦
Darrin Gerr: J♣J♦
The flop came Q♥10♦8♦ which left Gerr in the lead with his pocket jacks. The 6♠ on the turn changed nothing and the A♣ bricked out on the river, sending Flores to the exit.

Three players went to a flop of K♣9♦2♥ with a little over 20,000 in the pot. The small blind shipped all in for 27,500 and picked up calls from Ryan Moldestad and Ryan French-Charles.
The J♣ hit the turn and Moldestad jammed all in for his remaining 27,000 chips. French-Charles still called and all three hands were tabled.
Small Blind: K♥4♥
Ryan Moldestad: 2♠2♣
Ryan French-Charles: K♠7♠
Moldestad flopped a set of deuces and had both of his opponents drawing dead with just top pair. The insignificant 9♣ paired the board on the river and Moldestad collected a heap of chips.

Stephen Webb raised it up to 5,000 in middle position and Darrin Gerr flat-called on his left. The flop came 7♠4♥3♦ and Webb check-called a bet of 7,000 from Gerr.
The turn was the K♥ and Webb checked again. Gerr tossed in a bet of 15,000 and Webb instantly called. The river was the 5♣ and Webb pushed all in for his last 14,000. Gerr snapped him off and Webb showed K♠K♦ for a set of kings. Gerr also had a set with 3♠3♣ but it was no good.

Life Outside Poker is a podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the 35th episode, Connor talks with No Filter Poker Series founder Mounir Tajiou about growing up in Sweden, working as a high court judge, playing professional soccer, making a deep run in the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event, and the new No Filter Poker Series, which values fun at the table over poker strategy.
We also hear from 1998 Main Event champion Scotty Nguyen, reigning WSOP champ Michael Mizrachi and Finnish poker legend Juha Helppi about their involvement with the No Filter Poker tour.

Charles Kersey held the chip lead on the first break of the day and continues to be one of the biggest stacks in the room. He opened to 3,500 from under the gun and Leo Pinamonti three-bet to 9,500 in the cutoff. Kersey called and they went heads-up to a flop of Q♥10♦8♠.
Kersey check-called a bet of 8,000 from Pinamonti and the 5♣ rolled off on the turn. Both players checked and the 5♠ paired the board on the river. Kersey led out with a bet of 15,000 and Pinamonti looked him up. Kersey revealed A♦Q♠ for top pair and Pinamonti conceded the pot.
