Ray Fishman raised from early position and Paul Phenow called in the big blind.

On the K♠K♣7♦ flop, Fishman bet before Phenow check-raised and Fishman called.

Phenow slowed down with a check on the 7♣ turn. Fishman bet and Phenow let it go. Fishman windmilled A♠10♦10x6x into the middle as he raked in the pot.

"Make sure you include that I totally out-played him," requested Fishman as he put his talking chips to use.

Level 19 : 12,000/24,000, 0 ante

Action was picked up to the 9♦9♣8♥2♥ board in a hand between Adam Miller from under the gun and Christopher Vitch from the cutoff. Miller check-called a bet from Vitch.

On the 10♣ river, Miller checked to Vitch who fired for a third time and Miller wasted little time before he called. Vitch tabled A♦K♥9♥3♣ and his trip nines were good to drag a sizeable pot as the field dwindles.

Action was picked up in a three-way all in with Matt Grapenthien holding the covering stack in the big blind against Dean Joe and Alessandro De Michele.

Alessandro De Michele: A♥Q♠J♥3♦ All in
Dean Joe: A♣K♣K♦5♣ All in

The board ran out 6♠J♠2♣5♠J♦ and the straight was good for Grapenthien to take the high while he and De Michele split the low and eliminated Joe from the tournament.

A clash of the WSOP bracelet winners followed as Yueqi Zhu moved all in for 18,000 from early position and Grapenthien called in the small blind.

Yueqi Zhu: A♦8♣5♦2♦ All in
Matt Grapenthien: A♥10♦7♥2♠

The board ran out K♣8♣7♦9♦10♠ and the tens up was good for the pot to eliminate Zhu from the tournament.

Phil Ivey had only played a few hands at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) before he ran into a weird situation 10 minutes after max late registering for Event #3: $5,000 8-Handed No-Limit Hold'em.

The 11-time bracelet winner entered the tournament at the start of Level 13 on Day 2 with just 12.5 big blinds. He folded his first few hands before playing a pot from the big blind that ended with the floor supervisor being called over to rule on his river bet.
