David "Arikato" Mzareulov Flops Straight To Double

Level 8 : 300/600, 0 ante
Mzareulov Holds
Mzareulov Holds

David "Arikato" Mzareulov limped from the cutoff, as did Gionni "COLDWARKID" Demers on the button and Alexander "Yenmaster" Yen in the small blind. Qinghai "011POKERDR" Pan checked his option out of the big blind to send action four-way to the flop.

Yen led out for 1,200 on a flop of {8-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{j-Clubs}. That was enough to get Pan to fold but Mzareulov raised to 4,800. Demers released his hand to send the action back to Yen, who called.

Not discouraged by the high level of action on the flop, Yen fired off another bet on the {3-Diamonds} turn, this time sizing up to a pot sized 12,000. Mzareulov promptly shoved for 11,178 to put himself at risk.

David Mzareulov: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Alexander Yen: {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

Mzareulov had flopped the nut straight while Yen had made the lower straight. Yen did pick up a flush draw on the turn to keep him drawing live to the river. That river was a board pairing {3-Clubs}, keeping Mzareulov ahead and doubling him up.

Level 9 : 350/700, 0 ante
Zamani Knocksout Two
Zamani Knocksout Two

Arkadiy "WBGTour" Tsinis opened to 1,400 from middle position and was called by Martin "Bathroomline" Zamani on the button and John "Macallan25" Riordan out of the big blind.

Action checked to Zamani on a flop of {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}, and he led out for 2,000. Riordan responded by shoving his remaining 4,050 into the middle and Tsinis called. Zamani also made the call, to keep action three-handed heading to the turn.

Tsinis checked on the {9-Clubs} turn and and Zamani bet a pot sized 16,700. Tsinis shoved for 19,800 and Zamani made the call to put his two opponents at risk.

John "Macallan25" Riordan: {k-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
Arkadiy "WBGTour" Tsinis: {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Martin "Bathroomline" Zamani: {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

Zamani was ahead with a straight while his opponents both had flush draws, though Tsinis' one was higher, leaving Riordan drawing thin to a possible full house. The {4-Clubs} river changed nothing, sending a large pot Zamani's way while forcing his two opponents out of the tournament.

"Internet93o" Scoops Pot
"Internet93o" Scoops Pot

Justin "Haunted" Geary opened to 2,300 under the gun and "pgrizzle19" called on the button. Roger "vacantsky" Nahum three-bt to 10,000 out of the small blind after which "Internett93o" four-bet to 34,600. Geary shoved all in for 48,685, which convinced "pgrizzle19" to get out of the way. Nahum made the call for their remaining 11,000 while "Internett93o" came along as well to put Geary and Nahum at risk.

Roger Nahum: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Justin Geary: {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
"Internett93o": {10-Spades}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

Nahum was ahead with his aces but the {j-Hearts}{3-Spades}{4-Spades} did give "Internet93o" a flush draw. That draw was completed on the {q-Spades} turn and the board bricked out on the {4-Diamonds} river to send the pot "Internet93o"s way and force Nahum and Geary to vacate their seats.

Neymar Jr. Notches His First-Ever WSOP Cash in Event #41: $1,000 Super Turbo Bounty!

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Neymar Jr.

A week ago, PokerStars Cultural Ambassador Neymar Jr. made his playing debut at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) when the Paris Saint-Germain's renowned forward entered Event #26: $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship.

He didn’t cash that tournament, but now less than a week later the soccer legend has notched his first-ever WSOP cash by finishing in the money in Event #41: $1,000 Super Turbo Bounty No-Limit Hold’em. In fact, he’s still in action as of this writing and you can follow his progress in our live updates here.

Funny story, when the money bubble burst and tournament staff was trying to verify the size of the field, players were asked to remain in their seats and spectators to clear the area. No doubt excited by the prospect of earning his first WSOP cash, Neymar was standing on the rail chatting with a trio of friends which included PokerStars Team Pro Andre Akkari.

A security member, diligent in their duty and unaware that Neymar was in action, strolled up and said, “Sorry guys, I gotta kick you out, you can’t stay here.”

Arnaud "takeleschu" Enselme Pushes the Action

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 0 ante
Enselme Gets Two Folds
Enselme Gets Two Folds

Philip "tomte" Yeh raised to 2,000 from under the gun and was called by Anthony "MMATOMMY" Cousineau and "Internett93o". Arnaud "takeleschu" Enselme responded by three-betting to 11,000 out of the small blind. Yeh and "Internett93o" called while Cousineau folded to send action three-way to the flop.

Enselme bet a pot sized 36,000 on the {4-Hearts}{a-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop, leaving himself just 3,125 behind. That bet was enough to take down the pot, leaving Yeh short and sending Enselme rising up the chip counts.
