2025 World Series of Poker
Players are now on their second 20-minute break of the day. The field has grown to 837 entries and 779 players still remain.
Here are some highlights from Level 2:
In a multiway pot, Peter Patricio in middle position bet 2,200 and Yinchuan Liu in the big blind was the only one to call.
Liu fired a second barrel of 3,000 on the 8♣ turn and was called once again, but Patricio led out for 6,400 on the 8♦ river.
Patricio went deep into the tank and eventually made the call, but he ran into 9♣7♣ for a flush.

Franklin White called from under the gun and in the small blind, Chad Power raised to 1,500 which saw only White call.
The flop rolled out 8♠9♦K♥ and White called a bet of 1,500 from Power.
On the turn A♦, Power checked over to White who bet 3,000 and Power called.
Power checked the river 10♥ and White moved all in for 46,500 and Power elected to call.
Franklin White: J♥10♠
Chad Power: Q♣Q♠
White had jammed all in with his pair of tens only to be called by Power's pair of queens, vaulting Power over the six figure mark as the players neared break.

Martin Kabrhel has captured his fourth World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet, his first on American soil, by taking down Event #75: $1,000 Mini Main Event for $843,140.
In doing so, the polarizing Czech poker pro has overtaken Benny Glaser's lead in the 2025 WSOP Player of the Year race.
Heads-up on board of 4♦J♥3♠4♠ with over 10,000 already in the middle, Leon Sturm bet 8,500 from the small blind and Goswin Siemsen called from the cutoff.
The Q♠ completed the board and Sturm put a stack of chips into the middle, which was enough to put Siemsen all in for approximately 30,000 total.
"Not the best river, but..." Siemsen said as he put in a call.
Sturm turned over A♣4♣ for trip fours and Siemsen showed he held A♦A♥ before exiting the tournament area.

Zachary Hirst raised to 800 from the hijack, and met immediate resistance from Cody Wiegmann, one seat to his left. Wiegmann put in a three-bet to 3,000, which Hirst was the only player to call.
Both players checked the 4♦6♣8♦ flop, which Hirst saw as a green light to take over the betting lead on the 2♠ turn. He put out a bet of 3,500, which Wiegmann called.
The two players went to the 5♠ river, and when Hirst continued for 6,000, Weigmann opted to fold.

Kyle Frey raised to 800 from middle position and Christian Hanschirik called on the button. In the big blind, Kao Saechao raised to 4,400 and only Frey called.
The flop rolled out 9♣7♣2♦ and Saechao bet 3,000 to see Frey call.
On the turn A♣, Saechao sized up to the tune of 7,500 and Frey got rid of his hand quickly. The 16th place finisher of the 2018 Main Event raked in the pot as he looks for another deep run.
