2025 World Series of Poker
Thai Dinh pushed his last 1,450,000 into the middle under the gun, which was under the current big blind.
Michael Acevedo raised in early position to 5,500,000 and all other players folded.
Dinh announced that he had moved all in without looking, as he would be forced all in on the next hand anyway.
Thai Dinh: 9♠5♥
Michael Acevedo: K♥K♣
The board ran out 7♣Q♦A♥6♠3♣ and Dinh was sent to the rail in 25th place.

Weizheng Zhong, in middle position, took his time to mull over his action before he raised to 7,025,000, leaving one 25,000 chip behind. Both Cameron Blazevich and Michael Wilklow called.
The dealer flopped A♠7♦Q♦. Zhong checked and Blazevich fired 5,000,000, making Wilklow fold. Zhong, holding his last chip, again took his time before he threw it in.
Weizheng Zhong: 10♥9♥
Cameron Blazevich: A♣7♣
Blazevich hit two pair on the flop leaving Zhong to hope for a miracle to stay in the tournament. The 7♠ turn fell leaving Zhong drawing dead and sealing his fate. The 2♦ river was a formality. The dealer shipped the chips to Blazevich as Zhong left the table.

Diana Allen raised from late position to 4,000,000 and Thai Dinh moved all in for 17,900,000 from the cut off. Allen snap called, and she was, in fact, the player at risk as Dinh had her covered.
Diana Allen: K♦K♥
Thai Dinh: A♦K♠
A clean flop of Q♣10♣7♦ for Allen. The turn of 9♣ gave Dinh little help, and the 2♠ brick on the river left him with under one big blind.

A huge hand just propelled Michael Wilklow up the counts.
Weizheng Zhong opened to 2,500,000 and Wilklow had called from the big blind to see a flop of 4♦10♥A♥. Wilklow check-called a bet from Zhong to the 6♠ turn, where again Wilklow checked. Zhong fired out 9,000,000, and Wilklow called.
A 7♠ completed the runout and Wilklow checked again, then Zhong shoved for around 28,000,000. Wilklow had 21,550,000 behind and needed just a few moments before he tossed in the call, putting his tournament at risk.
Zhong then showed A♠Q♦ for top pair, but Wilklow had the winner with 10♣7♣ for two pair and scored a huge double-up.
