Event #83: $2,500 Freezeout No-Limit Hold'em on Friday at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP) began with controversy, PokerNews Podcast co-host Mike Holtz, who witnessed the wild incident at his table, explained.

Aces for Achille

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Ryan Dodd opened the action with a raise to 20,000 from the cutoff. Jacopo Achille responded in the small blind with a raise all-in for 55,000. Benjamin Underwood woke up with a hand in the big blind and raised to 162,000. Dodd folded as Achille and Underwood went to a showdown.

Jacopo Achille: AAAll in
Benjamin Underwood: AQ

Achille had Underwood crushed, but the flop of 10J2 brought some intrigue as it gave Underwood a gutshot to a straight.

The 4 turn was a blank to keep Achille in front.

Achille avoided an upset when the 10 river peeled off as he scooped the pot.
