GACKT Dashes Out Two Doubles

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Gakuto "GACKT" Oshiro took a first hit after the break when his {a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} came up short against the {a-Spades}{5-Diamonds} of "zhangning" in a preflop all-in, as the board ran out [7´6h5h2s7hJs].

Right after, Oshiro min-raised to 2,000 out of the small blind and "MoneyHeist" limp-called in the hijack.

"MoneyHeist": {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}
Gakuto "GACKT" Oshiro: {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

Oshiro needed a king or eight, and the {4-Diamonds} river was of no help to cause yet another setback.

WSOP Legend: Ungar's Daughter Answers Questions About Late Father

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Stu Ungar
Stu Ungar

At the final table of the 1997 World Series of Poker Main Event, which was played in the summer heat on Fremont Street outside Binion’s Horseshoe, Stu Ungar prevailed to capture a $1 million top prize and his third WSOP Main Event title (he also won in 1980 and 1981).

During his winner interview with Gabe Kaplan, Ungar held up a photo of his then 14-year-old daughter, Stefanie, and expressed his love. It was clear she was the center of his world.

“I love you honey, and I’ll be seeing you soon,” he said.

This past week, Stefanie Ungar-Campbell, who is now all grown up, offered poker fans an inside look at her father – who would pass away in 1998 – by giving them the opportunity to ask her anything on various social media outlets. It was in remembrance of the 22nd anniversary of her father’s passing on November 22.

Ungar-Campbell, who is now 38 years old and living in Las Vegas with her husband and two children, has been active on social media in 2020 sharing photos and stories of her father.

Tafur Eliminated by Jorstad

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

After losing the vast majority of his stack to the trips of Peiyuan "fish3098" Sun, Spain's Daniel "CASTILIAN" Tafur was at risk for fewer than seven blinds in the last hand before the break and picked up two callers in Espen "COVFEFE-19" Jorstad and Rui Ferreira. The two active players checked to the {10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} river on which Ferreira check-folded to a bet worth 10,500.

Tafur tabled {j-Spades}{9-Clubs} for a missed gutshot and Jorstad claimed the pot with {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} for eights full of sevens.

Livshitz Loses Some

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Gaby "kidrurim" Livshitz raised to 2,000 and was then met by a three-bet to 6,000 by Manuel "robocup" Ruivo and a cold-call by "xllllll" from one seat over. Livshitz made the call and was the only one to check-call a bet worth 6,732 by "xllllll" on the {9-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop.

Both remaining players checked down the {4-Diamonds} turn and {4-Hearts} river, and Livshitz conceded the pot with {a-Spades}{q-Spades} versus {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}.
