Maas Over 700,000 After Hitting Quad Aces vs. Pocket Kings

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

An early position player shoved around 28,000 and Don Maas called from middle position. The big blind also called.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{3-Hearts} and after a betting war, Maas was all in for 321,000 against the big blind.

Early Position: {7-}{7-}
Don Maas: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Big Blind: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

To everyone's shock, both Maas and the big blind had each slow played their monster holdings, with Maas looking at a massive chip up.

The {a-Hearts} turn gave Maas the pot worth around 750,000 while the {a-Spades} completed the board and gave him quads.

Frisbee Spins It Up With Double KO

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

"Double Payout," said the dealer.

In the aftermath of a three-way preflop all in, it was Wayne Frisbee stacking chips.

Frisbee was showing {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades} with the board showing {q-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} for queens and eights.

His opponents were holding {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} ace-king and {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds} pocket jacks, but they were sent into the muck as both players were eliminated.

There was a raise to 22,000 from under the gun, a player in middle position called, as did Carolyn Niekerk from the big blind.

Niekerk led for 22,000 on the {j-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop and only the original raiser called.

The turn brought the {4-Clubs} and Niekerk checked this time.

The early position player bet 36,000, Niekerk popped it up to 75,000 and the raise was called.

Niekerk led out for another 100,000 on the {8-Diamonds} river and her opponent went into the tank. He scratched his head, looked at his cards and folded after about a minute as Niekerk padded her stack.

The schedule for the 18th season of the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Circuit was released on Wednesday and is comprised of 25 stops with 10 additional stops expected to be announced in the future. The new season will kick off immediately after the 2020 WSOP with a stop at Choctaw Casino Resort in Durant, Oklahoma from July 20-31.

“The World Series of Poker is back with the Circuit returning in just short of a month,” said WSOP Senior Vice President and Executive Director Ty Stewart. “With record-breaking attendance so far this summer, we expect a huge response to the full-scale return of our regional mid-stakes tour.”

Most WSOP Circuit stops will begin on Thursdays, with the four-day Main Events beginning on the second Friday of the tournament. Each stop is encouraged to add Seniors and Ladies events, where the winners will qualify to participate in the “Tournament of Champions” in Las Vegas. Each stop will offer at least a dozen official gold ring events starting as low as $250 with a capstone $1,700 buy-in Main Event.

Additionally, there will be monthly online circuit events scheduled for players on WSOP.com.

The prestigious $1 million freeroll will return featuring a similar format as the 2021-22 season. Beginning with the Choctaw Circuit Event, any official gold ring winners from either the live or online circuit events through May 2023, will qualify for the invitation-only “Tournament of Champions” event during the 2023 WSOP tournament in Las Vegas.
