Jamie "DanBilzerian" Kerstetter Bows Out in 37th Place

Level 32 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Jamie Kerstetter
Jamie Kerstetter

Jamie "DanBilzerian" Kerstetter was on the shorter side of things with approximately 240,000 when she raised most of it, leaving herself about 25,000 back. An opponent three-bet to 450,000 next to act, and action folded back to Kerstetter, who called off.

Jamie "DanBilzerian" Kerstetter: {a-Clubs}{4-Spades}
Opponent: {10-}{10-}

Kerstetter was behind but did flop a wheel draw. A third club appeared on the board on the turn to give her a flush draw, but she missed as a red jack on the river proved useless.

Kerstetter was eliminated in 37th place for $6,463.04.

Hughes Gets "Barry Greenstein'ed" to Bust the Tournament

Level 32 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

"Bubblealot" raised to 100,000 from the hijack only to have Greg "dn4sand" Hughes three-bet to 300,000 from the button. Both blinds folded, "Bubblealot" four-bet all in, and Hughes called off for 1,210,985.

"Bubblealot": {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Greg "dn4sand" Hughes: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

Hughes was ahead and remained there through the {4-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{10-Hearts} flop and {2-Hearts} turn. Unfortunately for him, the nasty {a-Diamonds} appeared on the river to pair "Bubblealot" and send Hughes out of the tournament in 40th place for $$6,463.04.

Butwell Gets Unlucky Twice Ending His Tournament

Level 32 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

"TheSaucyOne" raised to 100,000 from under the gun and then called Matthew "Biscuits" Butwell's 271,696 three-bet jam from the small blind.

"TheSaucyOne": {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}
Matthew "Biscuits" Butwell: {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

Butwell was ahead with his made hand until the {2-Clubs}{2-Spades}{a-Spades} flop appeared giving "TheSaucyOne" a full house.

The {10-Clubs} turn was no help to Butwell as he needed an eight to fall on the river to stay alive.

Unfortunately for Butwell, the {q-Clubs} completed the board on the river and just once hand after losing with aces, he loses with eights ending his tournament in 41st place for $$6,463.04.

Natural8 2020 WSOP Online Performance of the Week: Ryan "protential" Laplante Cashes 9 Events in a Row

Level 31 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Ryan Laplante
Ryan Laplante

The 2020 World Series of Poker (WSOP) online bracelet events began at the beginning of July and will run through September 6th. It is comprised of 85 WSOP gold bracelets on the digital felt across two different clients: WSOP.com and GG Poker.

Each week, we’ll highlight those players who rise to the top through their performance, be it a dominating one in a single event, or an exhibition of consistency over several tournaments. Here’s a look at the POTWs thus far:

Through the first 22 events of the 2020 WSOP online series, no player had cashed more events than Learn Pro Poker founder and coach Ryan "protential" Laplante, who had 14 scores to his credit (more than any other player) totaling a combined $35,163.

While Laplante failed to make any final tables, let alone win one, his consistency was a testament to his hard work and professionalism as a poker player. The former bracelet winner epitomized what it means to be a grinder.

However, what was really impressive last week was the fact that Laplante had cashed the nine tournaments in a row.
