: Blinds 1,200,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
Mario Colavita raised to 4,000,000 and got called by Ashish Gupta to see a flop. The flop came down K♠10♥8♠. Colavita fired another 4,500,000 and got called once again.
On the turn 4♣, Colavita made it 10,000,000 to go. Not able to take the relentless heat, Gupta folded conceding the pot to Colavita.

: Blinds 1,200,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
Ivan Ruban raised from the hijack to 5,000,000. He was re-raised by Daniel Lei on the button to 15,000,000. Ruban came right back at Lei with another raise to 30,500,000 and forced Lei to fold.
In the same orbit, James Leonard raised from early position to 5,000,000 and was called by Jeremy Dan in the big blind.
The flop came A♠10♦5♥ and Dan check-called the 6,500,000 chip bet from Leonard.
On the 5♥ turn, Dan checked once again, and Leonard went all-in for his remaining 14,000,000 to force a fold.

: Blinds 1,200,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
Dylan Linde opened the hijack to 5,000,000 and Jeremy Dan shoved from the cutoff. When it got back to Linde, he quickly called for his last 48,500,000.
Dylan Linde: K♦K♠ 
Jeremy Dan: A♣Q♥
Linde had the Cowboys and just needed to fade the ace of Dan to soar to a nine-figure stack. The flop of 9♣J♠4♥ was clean for Linde, as was the 5♣ turn. Only ace on the river would work for Dan, but instead the 8♠ rolled off, meaning he had to send over the majority of his stack.

Jeremy Dan went all-in with 2,500,000 from hijack and got called by James Leonard on the button. Ivan Ruban in the big blind went beyond and made it 9,500,000 pushing Leonard out of the pot.
Jeremy Dan: 7♠7♥
Ivan Ruban: Q♠3♦
The flop came A♠Q♦8♦ with Ruban instantly beating Dan's sevens with a pair of queens. The turn 5♦ and the river 2♦ fell without helping Dan at all. Ruban scooped the pot as Dan said goodbye to his constant chatmate Dylan Linde seated to his right.

: Blinds 1,200,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
[Removed:548] raised from under the gun to 5,000,000 and was called by Ivan Ruban in the big blind.
The flop came 3♦2♦2♥ and both players checked.
On the 7♥ turn, Ruban bet 10,000,000 and was called by [Removed:549].
The J♥ river card was followed by an all-in bet from Ruban for 30,700,000. [Removed:549] called putting himself at risk.
Ruban tabled 8♠2♠ for flopped trips and but it was no good against the A♥9♥ of [Removed:549] for the runner-runner ace-high flush to scoop this healthy double.

David Uvaydov opened for 5,300,000 in late position and got an all-in shove from Mario Colavita for 41,100,000 sending Uvaydov to the tank. Uvaydov asked for a count then waited a few seconds before making the call taking them to showdown.
Mario Colavita: K♣Q♠
David Uvaydov : 10♣10♥
The moment the hands were tabled Uvaydov ran to the rail and stayed near his railbirds. With held breath he watched the board get dealt. The flop came 3♥6♠7♥ evoking a small cheer from Uvaydov and his friends. The 6♥ turn came and a louder cheer was heard.
Finally with his tens standing firm on the river 8♣, a raucous cheer came out from the rail while Colavita quietly left the table to claim his cashout prize

Level 41
: Blinds 1,200,000/2,500,000, 2,500,000 ante
After four days of action inside Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, only seven players remain in the hunt for the $1,204,457 top prize in the $1,500 Monster Stack.
The tournament drew a staggering 9,920 entries, building a $13,168,800 prize pool and surpassing last year’s record of 8,703. It marks yet another milestone at the 2025 World Series of Poker.
David Uvaydov leads the pack heading into the final day, capping off one of the most remarkable comebacks of the summer. After misjudging an opponent’s stack size and shoving king-queen into aces, he was left with just a few big blinds. But Uvaydov mounted an inspiring recovery, chipping his way back to the top to bag the biggest stack of the final seven.
Dylan Linde (85,500,000) is the only remaining WSOP bracelet winner and a seasoned pro with countless deep runs to his name. Alongside [Removed:548] (89,900,000), both were picked in this year’s 25K Fantasy Draft and now sit comfortably in the top three as they chase another big score in one of the summer’s biggest events.
Final Table Seat Draw

Day 4 Action
Just 54 players returned for Day 4, all with dreams of turning their $1,500 investment into a life-changing payday. Jeremy Dan looked set to do just that when he picked up aces and benefited from Uvaydov’s misstep. Dan called an open-raise with aces and Uvaydov three-bet shoved with king-queen, unaware Dan had a similar stack. After the board ran out, Dan surged into the lead while Uvaydov was left short.
Zhen Chen busted in 23rd place when his ace-deuce fell in a three-way clash against Michael Ruane’s ace-jack and James Gauley’s pocket jacks. An unlikely ace on the flop sealed his fate, and gave Ruane a chunky stack.
Overnight chip leader Santiago Montes also hit the rail after the three-table redraw. He three-bet shoved pocket sixes, but ran into the aces of [Removed:549], who turned an ace to end Montes' deep run.
Ruane was eliminated in 15th place, followed by Bryan Allen (14th), Mykhailo Zherebchenko (13th), and Keith Temm (12th).
The final table was to be ten-handed, which meant one of the final eleven wouldn't make it to the big stage. That unfortunate honor went to David Yonnotti, when he called off his stack with ace-nine on a low flop against [Removed:549]. Unfortunately for Yonnotti, [Removed:549] had flopped a deuce with ace-deuce and managed to hold on, which brought around the unofficial final table of ten.
Daniel Lei and [Removed:549] led the way at that point, while Ivan Ruban, Linde, and Dan were all still in healthy shape. Ryan Plant, who entered as the shortest stack, was first to fall in tenth after his queens were cracked by Ruban’s nine-seven, who ended with a full house.
Linde then picked up pocket kings and held against Dan’s ace-queen to leap to a nine-figure stack. Dan was left with a single big blind and exited shortly after in ninth place when Ruban’s queen-three out-flopped his pocket sevens.
The final elimination of the night came when Mario Colavita three-bet shoved king-queen over an open from Uvaydov. He ran straight into pocket tens and didn’t improve, ending his run in eighth and bringing play to a close on Day 4.
