Negreanu Narrates His Exit

Level 11 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Jake Schwartz raised all in for around 17,000 from under the gun as action folded to Daniel Negreanu in the small blind. He shoved for around 50,000 as Marius Gierse in the big blind called to put both players at risk.

As the cards were being tabled, Negreanu took his camera and began vlogging, flipping over {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. Schwartz had {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}, while Gierse had woken up with {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}.

"We could hit diamonds, or a straight," Negreanu narrated as the flop came {3-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{10-Spades}. But the {2-Diamonds} on the turn left him drawing dead as Gierse collected both bounties when the river came {8-Spades}.

Watson Outraces Negreanu

Level 11 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Mike Watson
Mike Watson

Daniel Negreanu opened to 4,500 from early position and action folded around to Mike Watson in the small blind who moved all in. Negreanu got out his recording stick, which he says is sturdier than the one that took a beating during the $250,000 Super High Roller last week, and began to film as he made the call, saying "We're going bounty hunting".

Mike Watson: {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}
Daniel Negreanu: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

The two respected poker pros were locked in an even race but Watson took a massive lead on the {q-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop. The {8-Spades} turn and {3-Diamonds} river changed nothing, sending the pot Watson's way and continuing Negreanu's 2022 WSOP woes.

Ball Dodges Outs to Double

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Two-time WSOP bracelet winner Scott Ball was facing a 20,000 bet on a board of {k-Clubs}{a-Spades}{6-Hearts}{7-Clubs} when he shoved for his last 67,900. His opponent quickly called.

Scott Ball: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Opponent: {8-Spades}{7-Spades}

Ball's hand held up as the river came the {2-Diamonds}, securing his double up.

"I trust my luck right there," his defeated opponent said following the hand. "An eight could come. A seven could come."

Leonard Outfoxes Fox

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Patrick Leonard
Patrick Leonard

A player opened from middle position and was called by Patrick Leonard in the small blind as well as Elio Fox out of the big blind.

Action checked through the {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop to the {j-Diamonds} turn. Leonard then led out for 2,000 and was called by both of his opponents to keep action three-handed heading to the river.

On the {j-Spades} river Leonard again bet, this time sizing up to 5,000. Fox responded by raising to 26,000 and the middle position player, with obvious reluctance, forcefully tossed his cards away. Leonard thought for some time but did end up making the call. Fox turned over {8-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for the counterfeited two pair while Leonard revealed he held {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for the superior two pair to take down the large pot and send his stack soaring above 100,000.

Keating Triples Up, Salari Tangles With Kornuth

Level 10 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Brian Rast raised pre-flop before Alex Keating shoved for 22,000. In the small blind, Fred Salari re-shoved for 40,200. Rast asked for a count before calling, having both players covered.

Alex Keating: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Fred Salari: {9-}{9-}
Brian Rast: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Keating took the lead on the {k-Spades}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop, hitting a pair of kings, and stayed ahead as the board ran out {8-Diamonds}{x-} to triple up, while Salari doubled through Rast.

"I'll take it," Keating said following the hand.

"Nice little triple up there," Salari added.

The next hand, Salari called a 11,700 raise from Chance Kornuth before both players checked to the turn on a board of {j-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}. Kornuth checked again and Salari bed out 10,000.

Kornuth called as the river came the {5-Hearts}. Kornuth, this time, led out for 18,700, and Salari tanked for so long that the clock was eventually called. He folded before the floor could even get to the table, surrendering the pot to Kornuth.

No Bracelet for Simao This Time

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Brazil's Joao Simao won his second WSOP bracelet earlier this series, but he won't be adding another to his collection in this tournament.

Simao was heads-up with Tim McDermott on a board of {2-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{7-Clubs} when McDermott shoved to put Simao at risk. Simao, with about 25,000 left, called with {k-Hearts}{5-Clubs} for a pair of fives and a flush draw.

McDermott showed {q-Spades}{j-Spades} for top pair and dodged Simao's outs on the {a-Diamonds} river, sending him to the rail while rocketing past 200,000.

Does Everyone Love a Chop Pot?

Level 9 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

A player moved all in from under the gun and Daniel Smiljkovic called from one seat over. The remaining players got out of the way and the under the gun player was officially at risk.

Under the Gun Player: {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
Daniel Smiljkovic: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The under the gun player was flipping for his tournament life while Smiljkovic was hoping to score the knockout and the $3,000 bounty that would accompany the elimination. The {8-Spades}{9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} flop kept the at risk player ahead, although Smiljkovic did pick up counterfeit outs. That proved to be important as the {8-Hearts} turn double paired the board and pushed Smiljkovic into the lead. He could not hold, however, as the {9-Spades} river put a full house on the board, chopping up the pot between the two players. It may be the case that a chop pot is preferable to a lost one but judging by Smiljkovic's demeanour, it is certainly not an ideal outcome.
