Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Tomas Szwarcberg ripped all in for 5,400,000 from middle position and Joey Padron reraised to 11,000,000 in the cutoff. Richard Freitas four-bet shoved all in for 29,600,000 in the big blind and Padron went into the tank for a couple of minutes before laying down 10♠10♣.

Tomas Szwarcberg: 6♠6♣ All in
Richard Freitas: A♠K♣

It turned out to be a coin flip between the remaining two players and the flop of Q♥7♠7♦ left Szwarcberg in the lead with his pair of sixes. The 3♣ on the turn and the 8♦ on the river changed nothing and Szwarcberg was kept alive with a triple up thanks to Padron's laydown.

Both players checked to the river on a board of 10♣9♥2♠J♠3♥. Veloso then led out for 3,900,000 with his pair of jacks and Nemetz folded as Veloso took down his third pot in the early stages of Day 8.

Jon Sofen

Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Caught up in the Will Kassouf madness was an improbable story at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP).

Yong Han, thanks largely to the attention given to the polarizing Kassouf, who busted in 33rd place, ran deep in the Main Event for the second consecutive year. That alone is noteworthy, but his story becomes newsworthy given his placement in the tournament.

On the next hand, Freitas raised to 1,200,000 on the button with K♥10♣ and Leo Margets three-bet to 4,000,000 in the small blind with A♣4♥. Freitas was forced to fold once again and Margets claimed the pot.

John Wasnock: A♦Q♦ All in
