Ramos Draws an Ace, Still Wins

Chris Land

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 6,000 ante

Felipe Ramos raised to 10,000 from the button and got called by Chris Brewer in the big blind leading to the draw.

Brewer drew one while Ramos opted to take two.

Brewer checked over to Ramos who squeezed his two new cards and checked behind, first showing only the A♠ which was good enough to get a fold from Brewer as he had apparently paired one of his hole cards.

Ramos then turned over 7♦6♦5♣2♥ to show his completed hand before collecting the pot.

Michael Moncek opened to 13,000 from middle position and was called by Yehuda Buchalter in the cutoff.

Moncek stood pat before betting 16,000 after Buchalter took two. Buchalter did not take long to make the call, showing down 9x6x5x4x2x to take the pot from a still big stacked Moncek.

Baker Gets A Fold

Chris Land

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 6,000 ante

David "ODB" Baker raised to 12,000 from the button. The small blind called before seeing Rami Boukai three-bet to 55,000 out of the big blind.

Baker thought briefly before putting in the call and the small blind folded, sending Baker and Boukai to the draw.

Boukai stood pat and Baker did the same after a brief moment of thought.

Boukai checked over to Baker who paused before counting out a bet of 85,000.

Boukai tanked for about a minute before tossing his cards into the muck and sending the pot to Baker.

Chad Holloway

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 6,000 ante

On the latest The Chad & Jesse Poker Show straight from the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP), Chad Holloway and Jesse Fullen welcome 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.

Chad and Jesse then do a new "Calling the Clock" segment in which they offer quick two-minute dialogues for topics on “The Board.”

Suzuki Gets Value from Negreanu

Chris Land

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 6,000 ante

Daniel Negreanu raised to 15,000 from late position and got called by Ryutaro Suzuki in the small blind leading to the draw.

Suzuki drew one and Negreanu did the same.

Suzuki paused for a moment and led out with a bet of 18,000. Negreanu counted out calling chips and pretty quickly tossed them into the pot to see Suzuki turn over 9♣7♥5♠4♣3♠.

Negreanu showed the 9♥ before mucking his cards to show that he had a worse nine low, sending the pot to Suzuki.

Vitch Gets Shove Through

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 6,000 ante

Chris Vitch opened to 8,000 from middle position before Jeff Lennon three-bet to 22,000 on the button. Action folded back around to Vitch and, after some thought, he moved all in for 150,500. Lennon did not immediately fold, instead taking his time in making a decision. Eventually, however, he did concede to send the pot to Vitch.

Elezra Leaves Li Short

Chris Land

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 6,000 ante

Eli Elezra raised to 13,000 from the cutoff before seeing Yingui Li put in a three-bet to 38,000 from the button.

Elezra, clearly far from done raising the action, slid out a four-bet to 103,000. Li though briefly before putting in the call, leaving himself only 45,500 in stack headed to the draw.

Elezra said, "I'm pat" as Li drew one.

Elezra stood from the table and put out a bet big enough to set Li all in then walked to the rail to have a short conversation with a friend. He came back quickly enough to watch Li peel his drawn card and toss a queen into the middle of the table, saying, "Shit!" before tossing his other four cards into the muck.

Elezra said, "You were drawing dead" before tossing his own cards in the muck and collecting the pot.

Yingui Li	45,500 -214,500	-214,500

Vieira Makes the Wrong Call

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 12 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 6,000 ante

Joao Vieira opened to 11,000 from middle position only to see Felipe Ramos move all in for 54,500 from the cutoff. Action folded back around to Vieira and he seemed to be in a tough spot, counting and re-counting his stack several times before eventually making the call.

Both players stood pat after which Ramos tabled 10x9x8x6x4x, prompting Vieira to muck a JxXxXxXxXx holding to take a hit to his stack.

The eventual winner of the currently underway Event #67: $1,000 Ladies Event Championship at the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) will not only take home a bracelet and $192,167 but will also earn a special place in poker history.
