2025 World Series of Poker
Yuebin Guo raised and Daniel Willis called before Jason Wheeler decided to three-bet. Guo tanked before shoving, and Willis called all in with a total short stack worth 254,000, followed by Wheeler, who was also at risk for 518,000:
Daniel Willis: K♥K♣8♦4♥
Jason Wheeler: A♠A♦9♦2♠
Yuebin Guo: K♠K♦9♥6♦
Wheeler seemed in great shape to scoop the pot with aces, but the board showed 10♥8♥6♥Q♣3♣ to give the flush to Willis to triple his stack. Wheeler's aces were good to take the side pot, and Guo's stack took a big hit.
Action was picked up with Elias Samaha, at risk, all-in for 590,000 against Bharath Janardhan.
Elias Samaha: K♣Q♠J♠9♠
Bharath Janardhan: A♠K♠10♣3♣
Janardhan was ahead with ace-high but the board ran K♥6♦Q♦3♥4♦ giving Samaha two pair and the pot.
Daniel Willis limped from the cutoff, Jason Wheeler limped from the small blind, and Patrick Moulder popped it up to 80,000 from the big blind. Both players called to see the flop.
The flop was 8♥10♥3♣. Wheeler checked, and Willis moved all in for 147,000. Willis called, while Wheeler folded.
Patrick Moulder: A♠8♠Q♣9♥
Daniel Willis: A♥K♠7♥4♠
The turn 8♦ and the river 4♥ gave the win to Willis with the flush.

Ante: 20,000
Heads-up on a flop of 8♣J♦6♠ and a pot of around 200,000, Carter Mcmahon in the big blind bet the pot prompting Andrew Yee to go all-in for 325,000 on the button. Mcmahon snap-called taking them to showdown.
Andrew Yee: J♠9♠8♦2♦
Carter Mcmahon: A♥Q♠J♣9♦
Yee was ahead with two pair and got additional outs when the dealer peeled the turn K♠. The river 7♥ didn't help Mcmahon at all. Mcmahon matched Yee's stack and just looked on as Yee scooped the pot for a double.
A round of applause just went around the room as the magic chest opened on the screen and the $100,000 popped out of the top. The lucky recipient was Vincent Moscati.
