Velasevic Sends Sverko Out

Level 4 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Danilo Velasevic opened to 12,000 in early position and Neil Warren made the call on his left. Action folded around to Gregor Sverko in the big blind, who three-bet to 60,000.

Velasevic was the only caller to the 9QA flop, where Sverko led out for 30,000. Velasevic called and the 7 turn was flipped over.

Sverko checked to Velasevic, who announced a bet of 80,000. After taking some time, Sverko called and the dealer turned over the 10 river.

Another check from Sverko was followed by Velasevic moving all in. Facing a decision for the rest of his chips, Sverko took several minutes before tossing in a calling chip.

Velasevic tabled 99 for a flopped set of nines, while Sverko showed AK on his way to the rail.

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.”

The J fell on the turn and both players tapped the table to see the 6 on the river. Yehudai checked for a final time before facing a bet of 62,000. He quickly made the call and Belcher tabled 1010 which was no good as Yehudai rolled KK.
