Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Badih Bounahra raised to 1,100 and William Casano responded with a raise to 3,200.

Daniel Delatorre went ahead and pushed all his chips in the middle, Bounahra folded and Casano called.

William Casano: A♥A♠ All in
Daniel Delatorre: 10♠10♥

The flop got Delatorre's heart rate up as it scrolled across Q♠10♣2♣, clapping his hand in excitement. Casano quietly looked on as the Q♣ and 2♦ completed the board.

Casano left the tournament area but may have a reentry available to him if he cares to join the battle again.

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Ron Fetsch made the final table of the 2023 $1,000 Seniors No-Limit Hold'em, finishing in eighth place ($95,040).

Two years later and against all odds, Fetsch made the final table again in the very same tournament this summer at the World Series of Poker. Even more surprising, he finished in eighth place again ($85,872)

Perhaps it's time for Fetsch to fetch a deep run in the Super Seniors.

A Look at Greenstein's Summer

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

The Robin Hood of Poker, Barry Greenstein, quietly shows up to the World Series of Poker each year, playing whichever events tickle his fancy. He often choses mixed games or large field no-limit hold'em events, avoiding the small fields of the higher stakes.

Playing an old school game that has been gaining popularity, Greenstein found a cash in the $1,500 No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw, placing 47th in a field of 532 ($3,397).

Big O is a game that has roots in classic Omaha Hi-Lo but with an extra card and betting that's pot limit so it's proved to be a progressively more common game in the modern era. Greenstein had a deep run in the $1,500 Big O and he was even seated to the left of former high stakes personality, Sam Farha. Greenstein went on to get 47th in that event ($6,941).
