Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Action was joined with the flop reading 6♦4♣J♠, and the pot already swelled. Ramon Kropmanns Da Silva checked from the big blind and Renan Maciel Menezes bet out from under the gun for 3,500. Matthew Berardi called from the button, and Da Silva folded.
The turn brought the A♦, and both players checked to see the 4♠ drop on the river. Menezes put out a hefty 17,000 bet, and after thinking for a while, Berardi made the call and mucked his cards as Menezes tabled A♠Q♠ for top pair.
The very next hand it was folded around to Da Silva in the small blind and he raised to 5,300 only for Menezes to three-bet to 31,000 effective, which put Da Silva all in. Da Silva snap called.
Ramon Kropmanns Da Silva: Q♠J♠
Renan Maciel Menezes: 2♣2♠
The flop came J♥2♥J♣, and Da Silva's trips were way behind Menezes' flopped full house. No queen or case jack on the 5♦ turn nor the 8♥ river, and Da Silva was sent packing.

The board showed 8♦10♦6♦A♦, when the action was picked up. Charles Giroux was first to act in the big blind and chose to bet 4,000, Ignas Jasinevicius in middle position called. The river showed 8♦, both players checked.
Charles Giroux: 10♠7♥
Ignas Jasinevicius: J♦9♦
The pocket tens of Giroux didn't hold up against the straight flush of Jasinevicius.

Phil Hellmuth said months ago he would boycott the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event. Many poker fans on social media, upon seeing video of his grand entrance on Thursday, are probably wishing he'd stuck to his original plan.
The "Poker Brat" traditionally arrives fashionably late for the $10,000 buy-in World Championship event he won in 1989. He showed up about five hours after play began on Day 1b, dressed like a 1980s hair band rockstar, full glam metal hairstyle and all.

Yuan Yu: A♣K♥
Kevin Stevens: Q♣Q♠
Yu already stood up when he saw the cards of Stevens, while the dealer revealed the board: 6♠4♣4♦7♠Q♦. Stevens scooped the pot with a boat, ending the tournament for Yu.

On the river 2♥, Mallick took a shot and bet out 8,000. Xie took her time and raised it to 25,000. Mallick admitted to a bluff and showed 10♦9♠. Xie quietly mucked and the table discussed, not seeing her hands yet.
