Livingston Goes for it All

Level 5 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Action was picked up on the turn with roughly 80,000 in the pot, and the board showing K743.

Jun Obara from under the gun checked to Alex Livingston in the cutoff, who bet out 45,000. Obara then raised to 120,000, which Livingston called.

After the 7 on the river, Obara checked to Livingston again, but this time he moved all in for Obara's stack of 475,000. Obara quickly mucked to give the pot to Livingston.

Alejandro Lococo's stack was in the middle on the button, facing off against Hui Chen in the hijack.

Alejandro Lococo: A10 All in
Hui Chen: 99

The flip did not go Lococo's way, as Chen was the only one to improve on the Q8549 while scoring the knockout.

Flashback: Yinan Zhou Bluffs Poker's Toughest Opponent to Win 2024 WSOP Paradise Super Main Event

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

Last year at Atlantis Paradise Island Bahamas, 24-year-old Yinan Zhou bluffed poker's toughest opponent, busted his poker idol and became the first-ever World Series of Poker (WSOP) Paradise Super Main Event champion as he won the $25,000 buy-in event in The Bahamas for $6,000,000 and his first bracelet.

The Super Main Event, a $50 million guaranteed event, drew 1,978 runners across four live starting flights and three online flights.

China's Zhou pulled off an impressive bluff against chip leader and sixth-place finisher Michael Addamo, who a few years ago was nominated for "Players Choice for Toughest Opponent" at the GPI awards.

"I'm feeling calm, to be honest," Zhou said. "When I started the final table nine-handed ... I (felt) very nervous, especially the big river bluff against Addamo. But when we got down to six, I (felt) very calm ... I just enjoy(ed) this final table."

Both players then checked to showdown after the 6 on the turn, and the 7 on the river. Brannan showed AQ for just ace-high, but Kim had the winner with a pair of eights after showing 98.
