Luis Vazquez opened to 600,000 on the button and then called a three-bet to 2,100,000 from Jonathan Tamayo out of the big blind.
Action checked through the 2♥9♣Q♦ flop to the 9♠ turn at which point both players checked once more.
Tamayo led out for 2,200,000 following the 9♦ river and was called by Vazquez. Tamayo showed 10x10x but was pipped by the J♦J♠ of Vazquez to concede a sizable pot.
Following an under-the-gun raise by [Removed:499], only Malo Latinois called in the big blind and checked the Q♦6♥2♠ flop. Slobodskoy continued for 450,000 and the call by Latinois led them to the 2♥ on the turn.
Latinois now bet 650,000 and Slobodskoy called.
After the 9♥ river, Latinois opted to check and Slobodskoy bet 850,000 with 5,200,000 behind. That sent Latinois into the tank and the clock was about to be called on him before the Frenchman raised it up to five million. Slobodskoy gave it brief consideration and folded.
Kevin Theodore opened to 600,000 on the button and Rodrigo Garrido Portaleoni three-bet jammed a stack of around 3,300,000 from the big blind. Theodore called with a bigger stack.
Rodrigo Garrido Portaleoni: K♦J♣ 
Kevin Theodore: A♦9♦
Portaleoni took a big lead on the flop of 8♣J♥3♣ and his hand held up as the board finished out 2♦10♣ to earn him a double.
Yegor Moroz raised to 600,000 in middle position and Aliaksandr Shylko called in the big blind.
Moroz bet another 500,000 on the K♦J♦J♥ flop and Shylko called. Both players then checked the 3♥ turn.
Shylko led out for 1,200,000 on the 6♣ river and Moroz called. Shylko showed the K♣ for two pair and Moroz mucked.
Blind-on-blind Malo Latinois and [Removed:499] had put in 800,000 chips each preflop when Latinois checked from the small blind on a flop of 2♠9♣3♠.
Slobodskoy then bet 450,000 from the big blind. Latinois raised to 1,200,000, and Slobodskoy tanked for a while before pushing all in for around 4,500,000 chips.
Latinois snap called with the covering stack, creating a showdown.
[Removed:499]: J♦J♣
Malo Latinois: K♠Q♠
Slobodskoy's overpair was up against the overcards and flush draw of Latinois.
Latinois paired up on the Q♦ turn, leaving Slobodskoy with one out in the deck. The 9♥ river did not bring it, however, eliminating Slobodskoy in 40th place.
Arthur Morris raised to 600,000 and then mucked the A♠ face-up when folding after Charles Russell had three-bet to 1,500,000.
Tomas Szwarcberg limped the small blind and then called a raise to 1,050,000 by Diogo Coelho in the big blind.
The A♦Q♣5♦ flop was checked by Szwarcberg, who then called a bet worth 600,000.
Both checked the 3♠ turn and the K♣ fell on the river. Szwarcberg checked once more and Coelho now bet 2,400,000.
Szwarcberg reluctantly called but mucked when he was shown the K♠4♣ for a pair of kings by Coelho.
Szwarcberg opened to 600,000 the next hand and folded to Coelho's chunky three-bet of 1,950,000.
In the 846th episode of the PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway and Kyna England are joined at Level 9 Studio by PokerNews Pennsylvania Ambassador Keith Becker, who served as special co-host to talk about the latest happenings at the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP).
That included a controversial hand from Day 3 that some viewed as an angle and/or scummy, as well as the wild seven-bet bubble hand on Day 4. What two hands could inspire two big stacks to get 120 big blinds all in preflop on the money bubble? Find out here. The trio also take a look at the WSOP Main Event payouts and how they compare to past years, which former Main Event champs lasted the longest, and how both Mo Nuwwarah and Josh Reichard took pre-tournament misfortune and used it as motivation to make a deep run into Day 5.
Chad also shares why he was inspired to turn extra links from his WSOP gold bracelet into a pair of gold earrings, while Keith talks about his life in the Keystone State, which includes a successful Twitch stream. As a matter of fact, he even streamed from the recently completed Global Poker x PokerNews Cup, which crowned a pair of Freeroll Finale Champions.
Finally, hear about recent WSOP gold bracelet winners including Garth Yettick, Carsten Heidemann, Matthew Alsante, and Chance Kornuth, who took down Event #85: $1,000 Flip & Go for his fourth gold bracelet. Hear from Kornuth himself in our winner's interview. Oh, and don't forget your regular $25K Fantasy update.
A new PokerNews Podcast will drop twice weekly during the 2024 WSOP every Tuesday and Friday at 8a PT / 11a ET / 4p UK time. Remember to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you do not miss an episode!
Kristen Foxen opened to 600,000 from under the gun with K♥K♦ and was called by Eliott Kessas from the hijack with the A♥9♥.
Kessas called for 650,000 on the 8♥5♠2♣ flop, and then bet 1,300,000 on the 8♦ turn after Foxen checked. Foxen clicked it to 3,000,000 and folded out her opponent.
Daniel Erlandsson raised to 600,000 from middle position and Kevin Theodore defended his big blind. The flop fell Q♦K♦8♥, on which Theodore checked to Erlandsson.
Erlandsson continued for 550,000 before Theodore jammed all in for 2,475,000. Erlandsson immediately called and the cards were tabled.
Kevin Theodore: K♥6♥
Daniel Erlandsson: A♥A♦
Theodore was up against Erlandsson's rockets, but he shot ahead when he made two pair on the 6♣ turn.
The K♣ river gave him a full house, leaving Erlandsson to shake his head as he paid Theodore his double-up.
The rest of the field had already gone off on break as Garrett Bok opened the final hand of the level to 650,000 in the hijack with the K♣J♥. Yegor Moroz then three-bet to 1,700,000 on the button with the Q♠Q♦.
Bok came back with a four-bet to 4,300,000 and Moroz five-bet shoved for more than Bok. Bok took up several minutes into the break before he folded.
"He doesn't want it. I've never seen anybody want it less," Moroz's rail yelled out.
