Paul Gunness raised to 150,000 from the button and Kasparas Klezys defended his big blind.
The flop came 4♥J♦3♦. Klezys check-called the 125,000 continuation-bet of Gunness.
They both checked through the 8♥ on the turn to the 6♥ on the river. Klezys bet 325,000 and Gunness called but mucked when Klezys tabled the K♥4♠3♥2♥ for the flush and the pot.
The flop read 7♠6♠9♦ with around 530,000 in the middle.
Both Kasparas Klezys in the cutoff and Darryll Fish in the hijack opted to check.
They did the same on the A♠ turn and the 10♦ river. Klezys showed A♥6♥ for two pair, but Fish tabled A♣Q♣J♥9♥ for the higher two pair to claim the pot.
Nacho Barbero raised under the gun to 200,000, Jose Nadal called in the cutoff, and the blinds folded.
Barbero fired out a bet of 200,000 when the flop came 3♦9♠4♦, Nadal called. Barbero fired again when the 4♥ hit the turn for 500,000, Nadal called again.
Both players checked on the 7♣ river, and Nadal tabled the winning hand with A♠A♣6♣2♦ for aces-up.
After two days of exciting action in Event #91: $1,500 Six-Handed Pot-Limit Omaha, the time has come to crown the latest champion at the 2025 World Series of Poker.
Only ten players remain in contention when action resumes at 12:00 p.m. local time, for the third and final day at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. Leading the way after an exciting Day 2 is Kasparas Klezys, who bagged up 6,900,000 chips to take a big lead among the final two tables.
Klezys will return as the only player holding more than 80 big blinds, leaving him with a significant lead as he bagged 115 big blinds on Friday night. This marks his second cash of the series, following a spot in the money in Event #74: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship.
This event saw a total of 1,384 entries, generating a prize pool of $1,837,260. Tonight's winner will earn $280,214, along with the coveted WSOP gold bracelet.
