Kabrhel Cracks Ausmus' Aces

Level 10 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

With 90,000 chips in the pot on a board of 9JQ, Martin Kabrhel checked it over to Jeremy Ausmus, who bet 22,000. Kabrhel then raised to 55,000, and Ausmus shoved all in for around 150,000. Kabrhel paused for just a moment to look at the camera aimed at him, then made the call.

Jeremy Ausmus: AA All in
Martin Kabrhel: Q9

Kabrhel improved to a full house on the Q turn which left Ausmus drawing to just two outs. Neither of the two aces appeared on the river as the K completed the board, which confirmed Ausmus' elimination.

Exclusive: Men 'The Master' Breaks Silence on WSOP Controversy | PokerNews Podcast #837

Level 10 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

In the 837th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway is joined by Johnnie Vibes and PokerNews Ontario Ambassador Kyle Anderson at Level 9 in Las Vegas and talk about the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP)!

Not only do they discuss the controversial shorted-pot hand from the Gladiators of Poker involving Men Nguyen, but Chad actually chatted briefly with "The Master" about it. That led to a conversation about Men "The Master" Nguyen's reputation and legacy within the poker world, and in turn to a discussion on fact versus fiction. Speaking of which, check out our five-part article series on Men Nguyen here.

From there, Anderson talks a bit about his ambassador duties for Ontario, and then talks about being put in the spotlight by Phil Hellmuth, which inspired Johnnie Vibes to chime in with his desire to be scolded by the "Poker Brat." Speaking of Vibes, he shared the details behind how the chip stack of Adrian Mateos went missing after a break in the $2,500 Freezeout, and then the crew dives headfirst into Nick Schulman winning the $25,000 High Roller for his fifth WSOP gold bracelet. Is he destined for the Poker Hall of Fame next year over Scott Seiver? It's a coin flip according to the panel.

The crew highlights a handful of other WSOP bracelet winners from the past few days, and preview the Phil Ivey vs. Jason Mercier vs. Danny Wong finale in the $10,000 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw event. Finally, get an update on the $25K Fantasy league and learn who won the BetMGM Poker Championship for $613,914!

Blom’s Stack Soars After Double KO

Level 10 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Viktor Blom
Viktor Blom

Martin Kabrhel, Viktor Blom, and one other player were all in preflop with Blom covering both players.

Martin Kabrhel: AAAll in
Opponent: KQAll in
Viktor Blom: AK

Kabrhel looked in good shape to triple up, but the K6K flop vaulted Blom into the lead with trip kings with an ace kicker.

The 9 turn and 4 river changed nothing and Blom scooped the large pot while eliminating two players.

“That was sick,” Eric Wasserson added as Blom collected the pot.

Kabrhel was seen re-entering shortly after being eliminated.
