2024 World Series of Poker
Level: 4
Blinds: 200/400
Ante: 400
Players are going on their first 20-minute break.
Recent two-time WSOP Circuit winner Lisa Schuessler got off to a good start and is sitting on about double the starting stack. She got a good chunk of her chips by knocking out two players in one hand with A♥10♥. According to Schuessler, one of her opponents had Ax4x and the other JxJx. She had them both in dire straights after flopping two pair, aces and tens. Neither of her opponents got help by the river and they were forced to hit the rail.
Schuessler got both of her Ring-event wins in 6-max No Limit Hold’em and is confident going into this summer: “I’m going to win three events this summer, in 6-max, that’s my goal.”
Best of luck to Schuessler and stay tuned for updates on her journey.

Richard Bai from Chicago was in the small blind when the player in the hijack position put in a raise for 800. The button, Bai and the big blind all came along for the ride. The flop was 8♠A♠8♥ and the whole group checked.
The 4♠ action card was checked to the hijack, who made a delayed continuation-bet of 1,200 and only Bai made the call.
Both players checked the river 7♣ and the hijack turned over J♠J♦ and Bai turned over Q♣Q♠ for the better pair.
The hijack stated, "Phew, I am glad that ace came."
