Taylor von Kriegenbergh Elimination

Isaac Haxton opened from under the gun to 240,000. Taylor von Kriegenbergh called from the big blind.

On the 9 turn, Von Kriegenbergh checked. Haxton bet Von Kriegenbergh's remaining 550,000, and Von Kriegenbergh made the call for his tournament life.

Taylor von Kriegenbergh: 109 All in
Ike Haxton: 1010

The A river sealed Von Kriegenbergh's fate, and he went home as the bubble boy.

Aram Oganyan opened to 200,000 in the hijack and was called by Thomas Boivin in the cutoff. Andrew Pacheco shipped all in for 1,235,000 in the small blind which only Oganyan called.

Andrew Pacheco: JJAll in
Aram Oganyan: AQ

It was a coin flip and Oganyan took the lead on the Q93 flop. The 3 on the turn and the K on the river changed nothing and Pacheco was eliminated with a min-cash.

Chris Hunichen Eliminated in 15th Place ($203,960)

Level 17 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Chris Hunichen
Chris Hunichen

Defending champion Chris Hunichen jammed for 860,000 from from middle position and was called by Ben Heath from the button.

Chris Hunichen: KQAll in
Ben Heath: A9

Heath paired his ace on the A103 flop to leave Hunichen drawing to Broadway. The short stack asked for at least a spade on the turn but the 7 was of no help.

The river bricked off with the 4 and Hunichen departed in 15th place after surviving the bubble as one of the smallest stacks.

Brandon Wittmeyer
Brandon Wittmeyer

Brandon Wittmeyer was down to just 385,000 chips and contemplated his move by using a time bank before shoving all in from the hijack. Andrew Lichtenberger confirmed the count in the small blind and then called.

Brandon Wittmeyer: K4All in
Andrew Lichtenberger: 66

The flop came AAQ and Wittmeyer picked up a few counterfeit outs. The 3 on the turn narrowed his outs by one and the 6 on the river improved Lichtenberger to a full house.

Barak Wisbrod
Barak Wisbrod

Barak Wisbrod opened to 225,000 in middle position and next to act, Aram Oganyan, raised to 650,000. Action folded back to Wisbrod, who moved all in, and Oganyan snapped.

Barak Wisbrod: 88 All in
Aram Oganyan: AK

Wisbrod was ahead but at risk.

The tables turned on the K102 flop, and it was Wisbrod who needed to catch up.

The turn J and river 2 were no help, and Wisbrod headed to the exit.

Landon Tice
Landon Tice

David Peters opened to 250,000 in early position and Aram Oganyan three-bet to 600,000 on his left. Landon Tice four-bet shoved all in for 3,750,000 in the blinds which got Peters to fold but Oganyan snapped him off.

Landon Tice: AKAll in
Aram Oganyan: AA

A cold deck landed in favor of the chip leader, putting Tice at risk with an uphill battle. The board ran out Q9362 and Oganyan held on to eliminate Tice.

Adrian Mateos Eliminated in 11th Place ($214,158)

Level 18 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Adrian Mateos
Adrian Mateos

Ben Heath raised to 260,000 from middle position, and when action folded to Adrian Mateos in the big blind, he moved all in for roughly 850,000. Heath took a moment to check the bet amount and then called to put Mateos at risk.

Adrian Mateos: KQ All in
Ben Heath: A6

The flop brought extra help for Mateos, coming down J1010, although it didn't directly improve his hand. He now had an open-ended straight draw as well as two live cards.

The turn J was no help, and when the river came, the 7 his fate was sealed.

Heath absorbed Mateos' stack into his own, and Mateos headed for the exit.

David Peters Eliminated in 10th Place ($214,158)

Level 19 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
David Peters
David Peters

David Peters raised to 300,000 on the button and Aram Oganyan three-bet to 1,000,000 in the small blind. Peters responed with a four-bet shove for 2,275,000 which Oganyan felt obligated to call.

David Peters: 88All in
Aram Oganyan: Q10

The flop came A107 which proved devastating for Peters who was looking at just a single out now.

"Eight! Eight," could be heard from a senior onlooker at the rail. The 3 and 2 completed the board and Peters, along with his fan, exited the area.

"Does David know that guy?" Oganyan questioned after the hand.

"I mean, I guess it could be David's uncle," Isaac Haxton hypothesized.

Level 19 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Vinny Lingham
Vinny Lingham

Vinny Lingham raised to 400,000 in the hijack, and only Ben Heath called, defending his big blind.

On a flop of 54Q, Heath check-called another bet of 400,000.

The turn 8 slowed action down as both players checked; however, more was to come from the river.

The dealer revealed the 4, and Heath led out for 1,100,000. Action was back on Lingham, and when he raised the minimum amount of 2,200,000, Heath was visibly dismayed. Heath used one time bank before reluctantly throwing in a chip to signal a call.

Lingham turned over AJ for the flopped nut flush, and Heath mucked his hand.

Phil Ivey Eliminated in 9th Place ($247,130)

Level 19 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Phil Ivey
Phil Ivey

Joao Vieira raised to 300,000 in the cutoff and Phil Ivey three-bet shoved all in for 4,375,000 in the small blind. Isaac Haxton asked for a count from the big blind and then called. Vieira quickly folded and the two remaining hands were tabled.

Phil Ivey: AQAll in
Isaac Haxton: AK

Ivey was staring in the face of elimination when the 876 flop hit the felt, leaving him looking for a queen. The 4 on the turn provided a potential chop, but the J on the river was no help. Ivey was the first elimination at the final table, and it marks his first recorded cash at the 2025 WSOP.
