2024 World Series of Poker
Picking up the action on the J♠9♦7♠3♠ turn, Asher Conniff in the blinds check-called a bet worth 6,500 by Jeffry Coffey. He then checked the 10♠ on the river when a four-card straight and flush emerged on the board.
Coffey glanced around for half a minute and checked behind. Conniff declared a straight but never showed the cards, as Coffey tabled his 6♠5♠ for a flush to win the pot.
With about 4,800 in the middle the board read A♦Q♥J♥Q♠10♥, and David Dongwoo Ko checked to his opponent who fired 2,800. Ko sighed with a bit of an eye roll as he tossed in the chips to call.
Ko's opponent tabled K♦8♦ for a straight but it was no good as Ko showed A♥3♥ for a flush.
Anthony Mullen had tossed his final 2,500 or so chips in from the small blind and was looked up by players under the gun and in early positon. The flop fell Q♣4♥3♥ and the player under the gun fired 2,100 chips.
The player in early position folded, creating a heads up showdown.
Anthony Mullen: 3♠3♣
Opponent: 8♥8♣
Mullen had flopped a set, which remained the best hand on the K♦9♣ runout. He tripled up, receiving cheers and fist bumps from the entire table.
Two players limped before the hijack raised to 1,600. Thomas Taylor made the call from the small blind and both limpers came along as well.
All four players checked to the Q♠J♥3♦8♣2♦ river, where Taylor dropped a bet of 1,200 across the line. Only the original limper made the call.
Taylor tabled J♠10♠ for a pair of jacks and his opponent knuckled the table as he mucked his hand.
5 bet shoved vs 30-35k stack and got a fold with AKs. I don't have to take this high variance line, but there was reason to believe it would get through.
