Kacper Pyzara opened in middle position to 500, which the player on the button called. Hisashi Yamanouchi responded with a three-bet from the small blind to 2,200. Pyzara called, and the player on the button folded.
The dealer spread a flop of Q♥J♥Q♠, which both players checked.
It was the turn K♦ that saw sparks fly. Yamanouchi checked for a second time, and Pyzara decided it was time to build a pot. He placed a bet of 11,000, only to be met with a check-raise to 22,000. Pyzara continued with a call, and the two moved onto a river in this already ballooned pot.
The dealer burned and turned the A♦, which did nothing to slow down the action. Yamanouchi moved all in for roughly 31,500, and Pyzara made the call.
The table then bore witness to an ice-cold cooler of a showdown so early on in the Main Event. Pyzara tabled K♥K♣, revealing he had turned top full house. It paled in comparison to Yamanouchi's holding, though, as he turned over the two remaining queens, Q♣Q♦, for flopped quads.
Pyzara was the covered player and, as such, his 2025 Main Event had come to an early end in devastating fashion.
