That’s the brutal reality Michael Hawker faced on Day 5 of the 2025 World Series of Poker Main Event. After going into the dinner break with a field-leading stack of 6,090,000 (152 big blinds), Hawker was eliminated within twenty minutes of returning, watching his dream unravel in sickening fashion.

Jack Moore opened to 225,000 and was called by William Smith in the blinds.

Both checked on the J♥6♣10♣ flop and a 6♥ paired the board on the turn. This time Smith led out for 250,000 and received a call from Moore.

The 4♥ fell on the river and Smith checked. Moore tanked a minute and bet 400,000. After some thinking, Smith raised it to 1,100,000. Moore looked at his cards once more and mucked his hand.

Jose Ramos opened to 160,000 and got three callers in Quan Tran, Jerome Dumayet in small blind and Nick Guagenti in the big blind.

The flop came down 4♠J♥7♥ and all players checked. On the turn 10♣, Guagenti shoved all-in for 200,000 and only Tran called.

Nick Guagenti: 10♠10♥7♦2♠ All in
Quan Tran: K♣9♥8♣5♥

Guagenti was ahead on the flop with his pocket tens but caught a set on the turn. On the other, Tran who had a double belly straight draw completed his straight pushing him in front, potentially eliminating Guagenti from the tournament. The board paired with the 4♣ reverting the lead back to Guagenti with a full house.

Guagenti scooped the pot for a double, happy to continue his tournament run.

Action folded around to Jeffrey Trudeau, who made up from the small blind, only for James Cheung to bet pot from the big blind. This then prompted Trudeau to three-bet pot, and both players were putting in 700,000 pre-flop.

The flop came 9♥6♥J♥ and both players checked to see the J♠ peel off on the turn, and again the action went check-check as it did on the 7♥ river.

"Straight" announced Cheung as he tabled 10♠8♣7♣6♦ and Trudeau tossed his cards into the muck after flashing A♦A♠XxXx
