Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Three players saw the 9♥7♠6♥10♦ turn, and Roy Bar Lev led for 2,400 into the pot of about 5,000 from the small blind. Mitchell Collins was in the big blind and quickly folded, and Kenny Hallaert made the call from the cutoff.
The 3♠ fell on the river and Lev pushed a stack of 40,000 across the line, putting Hallaert to the test for all of his chips. After a couple of moments of thought, Hallaert mucked his hand.

Francisco Espinoza: K♣K♥ 
Bradley Rogoff: A♦A♣
The board ran out 7♦5♦Q♠6♠2♦ and Espinoza was eliminated.

Joe Tehan raised to 2,000 in middle position and Viorel Tonef called on the button. Christoffer Janlow then moved all in for 19,500 in the small blind and both Tehan and Tonef called.
"Let's just open it up," Tehan joked with Tonef heading to the flop.
"Check it down. Gentleman's agreement," another tablemate added. Tehan and Tonef did check down the 6♥J♥4♥10♣A♥ board and Tehan showed K♠Q♠ for a straight.
Tonef mucked 7♣7♠, while Janlow tossed A♦J♦ into the muck before making an early Day 2 exit.

The four Day 1 flights of the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event have concluded, and now it’s time for the $10,000 buy-in tournament to move on to Day 2.
Among the thousands of players still standing is a group of qualifiers from Commerce Casino in Los Angeles, the largest poker room in the world. Jamie Gold, the 2006 world champion, headlined a team of 20 LA pros (plus himself) that all entered the Main Event Day 1a flight (except Gold, who was sick).

Alvaro Vasquez: A♥8♣
Richard Wight: A♦J♠
The 4♣A♣10♦Q♠9♠ board made both players top pair, but Wight's kicker remained in play to eliminate Vasquez.
"Well, that was fun," Vasquez noted as he headed to the exit.
