Gabriel Mirel opened to 3,500 on the button and Daniel Baldev three-bet to 10,500 from the small blind. Mirel moved in a 148,500 stack to cover Baldev's remaining 49,500 chips. Baldev tank-called and the players went to showdown.

Daniel Baldev: A♥K♠All in
Gabriel Mirel: Q♠J♦

Baldev stood at the table after seeing the 8♥J♠9♠ flop as Mirel picked up top pair.

The J♣ turn saw Mirel improve even more, and Baldev hit the rail after the 5♠ river fell.

'Wait, the River!'

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

The hand was picked up on the turn, with the board reading 6♥7♥K♠9♥. Alex Paredes had moved all in from the button with his last 26,000.

Dominik Siegl was quick to make the call

Alex Paredes: K♦Q♠All in
Dominik Siegl , 10♥8♥

Paredes had a pair of kings, but was drawing dead on the river, thanks to Siegl's straight flush. Paredes was drawing so dead in fact that he started walking off and the dealer began pushing the pot to Seigl.

"Wait, the river!" Seigl said to the confused dealer, who had to ask why they wanted him to stop.

Paredes paused, looked back and stood for half a beat as the 4♦ finally started to come, and he was in mid-stride when it hit the table.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

With around 40,000 in the pot on a board of 5♥J♣3♠9♦, Mindaugas Jonaitis moved all in for 25,500 from the hijack as action went on Andy Park under the gun. Park took a few minutes and eventually called to put Jonaitis at risk.

Mindaugas Jonaitis: A♦A♣All in
Andy Park: Q♥Q♠

The river was the 4♠ and Jonaitis doubled up, leaving Park with just one 500 chip remaining.

Eric Baldwin was already all in for 40,000 total from the cutoff against William Godbout, who had Baldwin covered from middle position.

Eric Baldwin: Q♣Q♠All in
William Godbout: A♦J♥

Similar to his last double-up, Baldwin was looking to fade an ace. The dealer brought a 6♦8♠10♠5♦K♠ runout — awarding the two-time bracelet winner another double.

Brian Robinson limped from late position, Jack Wagner limped from the button, Leo Worthington-Leese limped from the small blind, and Max Kingstone checked from the big blind.

Everyone checked down the entire board of J♣A♥7♠6♦5♣, and Worthington-Leese showed 7♠6♥, Kingstone mucked, Robinson showed K♦J♥ for a pair of jacks and the win, and Wagner mucked.

Following a A♠A♦4♣ flop, Adrian Tivadar check-raised from 4,000 to 10,000 and Rami Hammoud called. The K♠ followed on the turn and Tivadar checked again. Hammoud now bet 15,000 and that won the pot instantly.

This year's nominees for the Poker Hall of Fame have been announced, with the eight individuals now heading to the living members of the Hall for voting.

Each member can vote for up to four nominees, and anyone receiving votes from 22 or more members earns an automatic induction. This change, from a previous "winner-takes-all" format allowing for only one induction per year, was announced earlier this month.

Five of the eight nominees are first-time nominees, having met the minimum age requirement of 40. Eight-time WSOP bracelet winner Shaun Deeb headlines these players; he is joined by Jason Koon, Isaac Haxton, Chris Moorman, and Justin Bonomo.
