Keenan Kuhn moved his last 8,500,000 over the line from the cutoff. Ryan Leng asked for a count in the small blind before he called with the covering stack.

Keenan Kuhn: Q♦J♣ All in
Ryan Leng: A♠2♦

Leng paired his ace on the 6♣7♦A♦ flop, leaving Kuhn without outs on the 4♥ turn. Kuhn said his goodbyes as the 6♥ river fell, and the tournament was paused to commence a three-table redraw.

Ashira Lavine raised to 5,000,000 from under the gun, and Alexandre Zampieri three-bet jammed for around 12,000,000 from the button for the blinds to fold and Lavine to make the call with the slightly bigger stack.

Alexandre Zampieri: A♦K♦ All in
Ashira Lavine: K♠K♣

The board ran out 8♥2♣J♣9♣Q♦ for Lavine to hold with the pair of kings to eliminate Zampieri in 27th place just before the three-table redraw took place.

Jon Sofen

Level 39 : Blinds 800,000/1,600,000, 1,600,000 ante

A poker player was given a one-round penalty deep in a 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) event for swearing at a floor manager after refusing to color up.

Tyler Brown, a 2023 bracelet winner, is the player in question. He wasn't frustrated following a bad beat. The penalized poker pro was among the chip leaders at the time in Event #28: $600 Mixed No-Limit Hold'em/Pot-Limit Omaha Deepstack with around 30 players remaining out of 1,499 entries on Monday.
