Level 15 : Limits 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Alex Livingston: XxXx/2♦K♠5♦7♠/Xx
Daniel Negreanu: XxXx/2♥8♥9♣J♠/Xx

Alex Livingston brought it in and Daniel Negreanu completed. Livingston made the call and check-called on fourth street, mentioning "you know I always call one."

On fifth street, Livingston bet out and Negreanu responded with a raise. Livingston made the call and led out again on sixth street, this time only getting called by Negreanu.

Livingston put out another bet on seventh street and Negreanu now raised for the second time this hand. "Really?" Livingston asked, "You got there?" Eventually, he folded, flashing Kx5x for two pair. Negreanu was kind enough to show his opponent three hearts for a flush, assuring him that he made a good laydown.

Level 15 : Limits 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Mike Matusow: 6♥4♠ / 7♥3♠3♥3♦ / 8♠
Chad Eveslage: A♥5♥2♣ / A♦4♦10♠K♥

Mike Matusow lost most of his newly acquired chips in a hand where David Rheem hit a flush and found himself all in and at risk against Chad Eveslage as he made trips to double up.

"I thought he was a tight player," Eveslage said. "He's trying so hard to bubble."

"I'm trying to f***ing WIN," Matusow replied as he stacked his chips. "Bubbles don't do shit for me. Bracelets do it for me."

Andres Korn: XxXx/2♣ - folded third street
Yong Wang: XxXx/A♣9♥10♥ - folded fifth street

Mike Matusow and Chad Eveslage got it in on fifth street, while Yong Wang folded. Matusow's pair of kings would remain the best hand as he secured a double-up and is playing his biggest stack so far in the tournament.

Level 15 : Limits 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Mike Matusow: 8♥3♦3♣ / A♥4♥5♥7♦
Chad Eveslage: 9♠9♥6♦ / Q♦5♦4♠10♠

Mike Matusow completed and was called by Chad Eveslage. "Alright, let's go," Matusow said before betting on fourth street as Eveslage called.

Matusow bet on fifth street and made a praying motion as Eveslage sat in the tank and eventually called. There was another bet-call on sixth street and Matusow moved all in on seventh street as Eveslage called.

Matusow announced a flush before realizing he only had four hearts to be left with a low and a pair of threes. Eveslage revealed a pair of nines to take half the pot.

"They're trying so hard to double the best player up," Matusow said quietly.

"What do you mean? They couldn't double me up," Eveslage retorted as the table broke into laughter.

"It's fun being the villain," Eveslage said to Mike Thorpe to his left. "We are the same."

"It is fun being the villain," Thorpe agreed.

Level 15 : Limits 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

On the latest The Chad & Jesse Poker Show[/I][/B] straight from the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP), Chad Holloway and Jesse Fullen discuss Ali Imsirovic's video addressing the cheating allegations against him.

They are joined by renowned Japanese vlogger Masato Yokosawa, AKA “World Wide Yokosawa.” While players in the United States might think folks like Brad Owen and Andrew Neeme has the biggest vlog followings in the world, that distinction actually belongs to Masato, who regularly clears 600K views on each of his vlogs!

The Japanese vlogging sensation opens up about his start in poker, what inspired him to start a vlog, and how he’s managed to turn it into a smashing success with the help of a creative team. He also talks about his desire to win a WSOP gold bracelet, how Daniel Negreanu and Phil Hellmuth are perceived in his home country, and what the future looks like for poker in Japan.

Connor Richards

Level 15 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Eric Wasserson: 5♦2♣ / 3♠8♥2♥8♠ / Q♠
Calvin Anderson: 6♥4♣ / 4♠8♣10♥4♦ / 5♣

Calvin Anderson checked on fifth street and called a bet from heads-up opponent Eric Wasserson. Wasserson then bet all in on sixth street and Anderson quickly called with trips.

Wasserson couldn't improve with the Q♠ and mumbled about Anderson's hand as he left the tournament area.
