Tanemura Sends Out Schutten

Tyler Boyer

Level 4 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Kazuyuki Tanemura raised to 7,000 from under the gun, and it folded to Samuel Mullur in the hijack who three-bet to 21,000. It then folded to the big blind Brekstyn Schutten, who four-bet to 57,000. Tanemura then put in a five-bet to 125,000, which got Mullur to fold, but Schutten made the call.

The flop came 4♦3♣8♦ and Schutten checked to Tanemura, who bet 125,000. Schutten then raised all in for his stack of 172,000, which Tanemura called.

Brekstyn Schutten: J♥J♣ All in
Kazuyuki Tanemura: K♦K♣

Schutten ran into the kings of Tanemura, and once the board ran out 9♦Q♠ the kings of Tanemura were still best, giving him the pot and eliminating Schutten.

Level 4 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action picked up on the turn with a sizable pot brewing between Timothy Adams in middle position and Tamas Adamszki in the small blind.

With over 150,000 in the middle and the board reading K♣10♦8♠7♣, Adamszki bet 80,000 and Adams moved all in for about 200,000.

Adamszki used a time bank to think through his decision before ultimately tossing his cards into the muck.

Santhosh Suvarna opened the button and then called after Joao Vieira three-bet from the small blind.

On the A♦5♣3♣ flop, Vieira continued for 18,000 and Suvarna called.

The 6♥ turn checked through to the 7♥ river which saw Vieira check once again. Suvarna quickly fired a large bet of 90,000 into the middle and Vieira wasted little time before letting it go.

Level 4 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

What is a player to do when they love tournament poker, their mind allows them to compete against the best of the best, but their body doesn’t want to cooperate? That’s a question “Texas” Mike Moncek, who suffers from a heart condition, asked himself Wednesday night after playing in the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Paradise Event #7: $100,000 Triton Main Event.

The tournament, which is being live reported by PokerNews, attracted 182 entrants and offered up an $18,200,000 prize pool. On Day 2, a little over 40 players remained when Texas Mike, in his own words, “punted.”

Action was picked on the flop with the board showing K♦3♥2♥ and 65,000 in the pot.

The small blind Ottomar Ladva bet out 18,000, and Tamas Adamszki on the button made the call.

After the 9♥ on the turn, Ladva check-called a bet of 45,000 from Adamszki.

The river brought the A♦ and once Ladva checked, Adamszki moved all in for his stack of 88,500. Ladva confirmed the count, before mucking his hand to give the pot to Adamszki.

Triton Million Hands of the Week: Ivey Loses $1,000,000; Brutal Bubble Bustout for Ryan Feldman

Level 3 : Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante

The 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Paradise, which is taking place on Paradise Island in The Bahamas, got off to a big start with the $500,000 buy-in Triton Million, which marked the WSOP's first partnership with Triton Poker.

It was a unique tournament that paired an invitee with a poker pro – each putting up a $500,000 buy-in – and then competing in respective fields on Day 1 before combining on Day 2. The tournament, which was being live reported by PokerNews, featured 74 players (37 pairs) and much to our surprise saw two players get their chips all in on the very first hand of the tournament.

It was a big hand, but just one captured by the PokerNews Live Reporting Team. Here is a look at five other either big or game-changing hands from the Triton Million.

Felipe Ketzer raised to 5,500 under the gun, Artur Martirosian three-bet to 18,000 in the hijack, and Samuel Mullur four-bet jammed for 64,500 in the cutoff, putting himself at risk. Brekstyn Schutten then reshoved in the big blind to isolate, resulting in folds from Ketzer and Martirosian.

Samuel Mullur: 10♣10♥ All in
Brekstyn Schutten: K♥K♦

The board ran out 5♥7♦A♠A♣7♥ and Schutten's kings held to send Mullur to the rail.
