Connor Richards

Level 11 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Sergio Aguero limped in from early position and Byron Kaverman called on the button as Alex Foxen completed his small blind and 2023 Colossus winner Moshe Refaelowitz checked his option in the big blind.

Foxen and Refaelowitz checked on the flop of Q♣7♦5♥ and Aguero bet 28,000. One by one, the soccer star's three opponents folded.

Level 11 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Chad Eveslage opened to 25,000 in the cutoff and Byron Kaverman three-bet jammed on the button. Eveslage called with a bigger stack.

Chad Eveslage: A♦K♦
Byron Kaverman: Q♠Q♥

Kaverman was in great shape to double up after the 3♦8♠10♦ flop and 5♠ turn, but the A♥ river gave Eveslage the winner to mark Kaverman's elimination.

Level 12 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Phil Hellmuth came in hungry for a record-extending 18th bracelet, but the all-time bracelet winner will have to fill up on the deluge of snacks he brought with him — a banana, M&Ms, Sour Patch Kids & a personal pizza — after he was eliminated during Level 12.

Hellmuth's seat was seen empty, as was his table of snacks.
