Jansen Sticks Around With a Double

Tim Baker

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Bradley Jansen jammed the button for 340,000 with only Murilo Milhomem calling from the small blind,

Bradley Jansen: A♥K♦ All in
Murilo Milhomem: J♣8♣

Jansen was ahead with Big Slick, but Milhomem had two live cards working for him. The board ran out clean for Jansen as it came 5♣9♦Q♥Q♣2♠, allowing him to double-up with ace-high.

The flop showed K♠8♦2♣ and the bet of 200,000 by Juan Carlos Vecino from under the gun was called by Ruben Correia on the button. Vecino fired another 800,000 on the Q♠ turn for Correia to call and they checked the Q♦ on the river.

Vecino tabled the J♠10♥ and Correia won the pot with the K♣J♣.

"What did you eat for dinner?" another player jokingly asked the Portuguese.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Chih Fan raised to 240,000 from the hijack and Bradley Jansen jammed for 920,000 from the cutoff. When it got back to Fan, he called.

Bradley Jansen: A♣K♠ All in
Chih Fan: 7♠7♦

Jansen had Big Blick in back-to-back hands, but this time he had to connect with the board to stay alive.

However, it was Fan that hit the flop hard, as it came 6♥2♦7♣ to give Fan top set. The remainder of the runout came 4♣8♣, and Jansen was the next casualty of the Main Event.

Calderon and Grupp Double

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Mounir Tajiou had received some beverage as ordered by Swedish friends on the rail and then shouted vividly in his native language that he was all-in, up against Albert Calderon in the next seat.

Albert Calderon: A♥K♦ All in
Mounir Tajiou: 5♦5♥

"The flop is good, and the turn is good," Tajiou said as the board ran out Q♣10♥6♦10♣6♠. He didn't notice at first that the pair was counterfeit and Calderon doubled for 870,000.

Another double was awarded to Kyle Grupp through Craig Trost when the former had turned a set of fives with 5♥5♠ on a board of 8♣6♥3♦5♦A♣. Apparently, the big blind had folded and exposed eight-trey, which then became relevant on that specific flop.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Alen Tenorio made it 240,000 with A♣J♦ from the cutoff. Chad Power called holding 8♠7♠ from the small blind, and Leo Margets defended her big blind with 6♣5♦.

Power led out for 400,000 on the 7♦A♠5♠ flop, which only Tenorio called.

The flush-completing 2♠ hit the turn and Power led out again, this time for 1,000,000. Tenorio decided to lay down top pair, and Power pulled in the pot.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Francis Anderson was eliminated a few hands earlier at this table when he shoved for around 900,000 with ace-nine, but Nicolas Enjamio picked up two kings and Anderson failed to improve.

Enjamio, fresh off that knockout, then raised to 250,000 under the gun and Diego Ponce three-bet to 775,000 in the cutoff. Enjamio moved all in for 4,300,000 and Ponce practically beat him into the pot.

Nicolas Enjamio: Q♥Q♣ All in
Diego Ponce: A♣A♠

Enjamio had picked up another big pair, but this time he had run right into Ponce's aces. The board ran out K♣K♦7♣3♥7♥ and Enjamio was sent to the rail.

Eliot Thomas

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Chih Fan has denied violating WSOP Rule 64 regarding approved electronic devices after receiving a one-round penalty for allegedly viewing a GTO chart at the table during Day 6 of the Main Event.

The Taiwanese player strongly denied the accusation at the time and has since released a statement saying he was watching “Doug Polk’s YouTube” during the hand in question. Despite the explanation, the ruling was upheld and the penalty enforced.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Giorgiy Skhulukhiya opened 8♥8♣ to 240,000 from under the gun and Greg Merson looked down at K♥K♣ on the button and three-bet to 750,000. Skhulukhiya quickly let it go.

In the next hand, Derek Sudell raised to 250,000 from the button with K♠J♠ and Jarod Minghini called in the small blind with J♣9♣.

Both made top pair on the 4♦J♦5♥ flop, where Minghini checked and Sudell threw out 400,000. Minghini called and they watched the 7♠ land on the turn, which checked through.

A 3♠ completed the runout and Minghini led out for 600,000. Sudell didn't need to think for too long before he called and took the pot with his bigger kicker.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Eric Afriat raised to 250,000 and Bruno Furth called in the next seat in the hijack, as did Murly Manokharan in the big blind. The 9♠8♥7♦ flop was checked to Afriat who bet 150,000 and received two callers. After the 7♥ turn, Manokharan checked again.

Afriat now bet 600,000 to force out Furth and the Canadian said "save your chips" to Manokharan when the latter gave it some thought. Manokharan folded and Afriat flashed the 9♥ before collecting the pot.

Level 28 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Yong Han opened to 250,000 from middle position and picked up calls from Ramon Pessoa in the hijack and Frank Flowers on the cutoff.

The K♦9♦4♥ flop was checked around, and Han checked again on the K♠ turn. Pessoa took a stab for 190,000, only for Flowers to raise to 575,000. Han responded with a three-bet to 1,200,000, which quickly forced both opponents to fold.

After the hand, Han exchanged some words with Lautaro Guerra, who asked how many times he'd played the Main Event. Han replied it was only his second time, and he's made both count. He finished 59th last year for $160,000 and has now locked up another top-90 finish.
