Jouhkimainen Wins Massive Three-Way All In

Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

A short-stack moved all in before another player also shoved with a larger stack. Action folded to Joni Jouhkimainen, who tanked for several minutes.

Jouhkimainen counted out his stack and rubbed his lucky golf ball in his hands before eventually sliding his 576,000 chips forward, showing {a-Spades}{j-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs}. He was up against the larger stack's {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{3-Spades} and the short-stack's {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}.

Jouhkimainen ended up with two pair on a board of {q-Spades}{8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}, cracking his opponent's two aces to double up and eliminate the shorter stack in a million chip pot just as play was ending for the night.

David Prociak Tops Day 1 of $5,000 Mixed No-Limit Hold'em/Pot-Limit Omaha

Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

A total of 579 entries were reached today for Day 1 in the World Series of Poker Event #64: $5,000 Mixed No-Limit Hold'em/Pot-Limit Omaha 8-Handed but only 49 hopefuls advanced to Wednesday’s final day. They are all guaranteed a minimum cash of $10,087 but all have hopes to take home the $545,638 first-place prize and the prestigious gold bracelet.

David Prociak takes the overnight chip lead with 2,405,000 in chips, over one million more than his closest opponent. This is Prociak’s fourth WSOP cash this summer and he will be trying to reach his second gold bracelet after his victory in the 2016 $1,500 Seven-Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better. Trailing in second place is Niklas Astedt with 1,345,000, who cashed in 19 WSOP events in his poker career.

Closing the podium for today is Finnish star Joni Jouhkimainen with 1,215,000. With a total of $4,021,626 in live earnings and a solid reputation online in the highest stakes PLO games, Jouhkimainen will be a serious contender for the victory tomorrow.

Uri Reichenstein (1,010,000), Jason Somerville (690,000), Oliver Bosch (1,020,000), Barak Wisbrod (865,000), Noah Bronstein (705,000), Stefan Schillhabel (445,000) and Dan Smith as short stack with 310,000 are just a few of the many familiar names in the poker world that have made it through to Day 2.

End of the day action

The bubble burst only one hour before the end of the day, when Jason Sommerville called Gabriel Vezina for his last ten big blinds and found two pairs to eliminate Vezina right before the money. Another player was eliminated on the same hand, so they both shared the 87th place prize.

Some of the players that weren’t that lucky to progress to Day 2 but did make the money include 2019 Main Event champion Hossein Ensan, Samuel Chartier, who managed to survive to the bubble with less than three big blinds, Brian Rast, nine-time bracelet winner Erik Seidel, Yuri Dzivielevski and Romain Lewis.

Many of the famous players that did enter today but fortunate enough to make a trip to the payout desk included, five-time bracelet winner Scotty Nguyen, 16-time bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth, and many other WSOP winners such as Dario Sammartino, Justin Liberto, Chino Rheem, Chance Kornuth, Brandon Shack-Harris, Dan Shak, David Benyamine, Shaun Deeb, Ben Yu and Mustapha Kanit just to name a few.

The action will pick up again at 2:00 p.m. Wednesday and will play down to a winner. There will be a 15-minute break every four levels and a 60-min break after Level 32 (≈ 8:30 p.m.). The tournament is scheduled to play until a new champion is crowned.

The PokerNews live reporting team will be on hand to bring you all the updates from the words “shuffle up and deal” until the final all-in has been won, so make sure to keep coming back!
