Tardif Raises the River, Gets Paid

Level 18

Pot-Limit Omaha 8 or Better

GG Poker Twitch Squad member Patrick Tardif has a very healthy stack as the bubble approaches, thanks in part to a large pot he just scooped.

Jason Cruse led into Tardif from the big blind for 27,000 on a turn board of {5-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}. Tardif called.

On the river {j-Clubs}, Cruse again bet, this time for 30,000. Tardif took a moment then raised to 90,000.

Cruse called and saw Tardif's {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}{5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} for a winning full house.

Cruse showed his {2-Hearts}{3-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} for trip threes and a missed low draw, then tossed his cards into the muck.

Scott Abrams heads the field of 199 hopefuls returning for Day 2 of Event #21: $1,500 Mixed Omaha, with 96 of those making the money. A successful Omaha and mixed game player with 28 WSOP cashes to his name, Abrams will take 275,000 chips into Monday’s play.

Plenty of notables successfully navigated their way through the field of 641 runners, including the champion of Event #9: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Ari Engel, who enters the day among the chip leaders with 230,000.

Some of the other mixed game stars and bracelet winners still in the field include 2019 $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better champ Derek McMaster (162,500), six-time bracelet winner Daniel Negreanu, (147,000), two-time $50,000 Poker Players Championship winner Brian Rast (147,000), six-time bracelet winner Ted Forrest (128,000), Event #16: $10,000 Limit Hold’em champion John Monnette (103,500), and runner-up in the 2019 edition of this event, Yueqi Zhu (54,000).

The defending champion however will not be among those competing for the gold bracelet and the $170,269 top prize, as Anatolii Zyrin fell midway through Day 1.

Action resumes with level 16 at 2:00 pm local time in the Amazon room. Ten 60-minute levels will be played with a 60-minute dinner break after level 21.
