After completing the first four levels, players are now on their first break. Initially planned to last 20 minutes, this break has been extended to 30 minutes. Currently, the screen shows 2,500 entrants.
Black section in Paris Ballroom continued to fill up with some Monster Stack bustouts and new entrants. Late registration line is still huge with around 200 players waiting to be seated.
Mason Hinkle raised to 1,200 in middle position and only the button came along.
On the Q♦Q♣5♣ flop, Hinkle continued for 500 and was quickly called.
The 4♣ hit the turn and Hinkle bet the same amount of 500 and was called once again.
When the 6♣ landed, Hinkle paused for a few moments before pushing a bet of 10,000 across the line. His opponent instantly mucked, sending the pot to Hinkle.
Jason Clark and one other player put 1,200 in the middle and the dealer fanned a flop of 10♠4♥3♥.
Once checked to, Clark fired a bet of 1,500 and was called quickly by his opponent.
The J♠ hit the turn and Clark's opponent instantly check-called a bet of 3,000.
When the 7♠ completed the board, the action checked to Clark once more and he announced a bet of 3,000 while dropping a red chip across the line. His opponent wasted no time pushing his cards across the line to surrender the pot.
On the table of Marc Joseph who is already above 100,000 chips, Denise Whitson opened to 900, and was called by the cutoff.
Everybody else folded to Adam Levy, who raised to 4,000 from the big blind. Quickly, Whitson prepared her chips to four-bet to 10,000. Levy was the only one to call.
As soon as the dealer fanned a flop of 6♥9♦7♣, Levy checked and Whitson took all her chips to go all-in. Immediately, Levy threw his cards in the muck and lowered his head to his phone.
A player limped under the gun before there was a jam of 4,000. The action folded to Peter "The Saurus" Morris who made the call. The under-the-gun limper tanked for about 30 seconds before pitching his cards into the muck and both hands were tabled.
All-in Player: A♠7♣
Peter Morris: 8♣8♠
The dealer ran out the 10♦5♠3♠10♣6♣ board and Morris' eights held as he sent his opponent to the rail.
Level: 4
Blinds: 200/400
Ante: 400
WSOP 2021 $800 Deepstack Champion Jason Wheeler just arrived in the field. The American player defeated a field of 1,921 entrants back in November 2021 to claim his first bracelet and more than $200,000.
Already 2,280 entrants are registered and the late registration line is still really long.
From under the gun, a player limped for 300, but a player in middle position preferred to raise to 1,500 chips. Robert Huebsch on his left called, and the first player in the hand did the same.
On J♥2♥8♥, middle position player continued with a bet of 3,000 chips. Huebsch called. However, both of them saw the under the gun player move all in for approximately 40,000 chips. And after a fold, Huebsch called.
Huebsch : A♥4♥
Opponent : Q♥10♥
Perfect situation for Huebsch, who already had the best hand possible on the flop. The turn 2♣ and the river 10♣ didn't change anything, and Huebsch successfully doubled up. With only 5,000 chips remaining, his opponent was eliminated a few hands later.
