Lampropulos Doesn't Believe ODB

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

David "ODB" Baker opened the cutoff to 1,200 and was called by Maria Lampropulos on the button as well as the big blind.

On the 8♠5♣2♠ flop, the big blind checked to Baker who bet 2,200, Lampropulos called, and the big blind folded.

The 5♦ turn checked through to the A♥ river which saw Baker toss out a single T-5,000 chip. Lampropulos could take around a minute before she tossed out the call, and she got the bad news as Baker tabled A♣9♦ for the winner with his top pair.

The Curious Case of the Missed River Bet

If Giorgos Onisiforou was hoping to play a little one-on-one poker, he'd need to find another spot.

Starting the action off, Onisiforou raised in early position to 1,300. Next to act, Kenna James called. The player on the button called, the small blind called, and of course, the big blind stuck around too.

The dealer spread a flop of 9♠9♥10♦, and when action checked to him, an undeterred Onisiforou continued with a bet of 2,300. James called to his immediate left, and all other participants folded.

Onisiforou took a more cautious approach to the following streets. Check-calling a bet of 5,500 on the 5♠ turn, before checking again on the K♦ river.

James took a moment or two to mull over his options on the river, but decided safety was paramount and checked back.

Onisiforou proudly tabled Q♥Q♣, but received bad news. James had rivered a straight with his Q♦J♠.

"You forgot to bet", quipped Onisiforou. "You either had queens or kings", was the response from James.

Martosella Boats Up to Bust Ding

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Heads-up to the river with a little over 11,000 in the middle, Michael Martosella from the small blind and Jiasheng Ding from middle position saw the completed board of 4♠2♣5♦5♣Q♥.

Martosella led for 10,000 before Ding jammed for his remaining 24,000 or so, and Martosella snapped it off as the covering stack.

Jiasheng Ding: K♣Q♦
Michael Martosella: 2♥2♦

Ding rivered top pair and mistakenly went for the whole lot as he value-owned himself to the rail against Martosella's full house.

Three ways to the 2♣6♣4♥ flop that Brad Owen checked first from the big blind. Robert Unterreiner bet 1,200 from early position with Ryan Smith folding from the cutoff, but Owen making the call.

The J♥ came on the turn and Owen check-called a bet of 2,000 from Unterreiner to see the 6♠ fall on the river. Both players checked and Owen won the pot with 6♥5♣ for trip sixes. Unterreiner revealed A♥K♥ for a flush draw and two overcards on the turn that bricked.

The 2025 World Series of Poker Main Event has already dished out its fair share of brutal coolers and soul-crushing bad beats, but Day 1d may have taken things to a new level.

Among those to fall victim was Jared Bleznick, whose pocket aces were cracked in a massive six-bet pot worth 267,000 chips, a huge pot this early in poker’s World Championship.

And the drama didn’t stop there. Another player’s pocket kings were sent to the muck after their opponent called off 85 big blinds with nine-seven, while the final level of the night saw a full house run head-first into flopped quads.

Ruben Carrasco called all-in when Ryota Shinde jammed the 6♦5♣4♥9♦ turn and was well ahead with A♥6♥ versus A♠6♠. Shinde needed a try for the straight and that's exactly what came with the 3♣ on the river to eliminate the third player from this table on Day 1d.

Gutierrez Keeps Last Chips

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Four players went to the flop at 1,300 each for 10♦3♦7♥, but only Gabriel Gutierrez and Andrea Salamone remained after Gutierrez bet 6,000.

Both players checked the J♠ on the turn. Then Salamone led out with a 25,000-chip bet when the dealer laid the 2♦ down on the river.

Gutierrez tanked over the decision to risk his tournament life for a minute, before electing to fold.

Kevin Kent bet 2,000 from the hijack on a flop of A♣A♠9♣ before Zak VanKeuren raised to 5,500 in early position. Kent called and the 6♣ fell on the turn.

Both players checked through to the Q♥ river, where VanKeuren led out for 2,000. Kent then raised to 8,000 and VanKeuren asked to see how much Kent had behind before moving all in.

Kent, with 44,000 back, quickly folded and VanKeuren took the pot, claiming to have flopped quads with pocket aces.

Gregoire Boissenot opened to 1,200 from the cutoff and was called by Johan Jacobsen on the button and by the button.

The dealer fanned a flop of 9♥8♣J♣ and Boissenot bet 1,500. Jacobsen was the only one to call.

Boissenot fired a second barrel of 4,000 on the 6♣ turn. Jacobsen quickly folded.
