Jumalon Wins Battle of the Blinds

Stewart Morrison
Stewart Morrison
Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

When the action folded to Greg Mueller in the small blind, he raised to 500,000, which Lucas Jumalon called in the big blind.

Mueller continued with a bet of 300,000 on a 9♣10♣J♦ flop, and Jumalon stuck around to see a turn card.

The Q♦ joined the board, and Mueller fired another 800,000. Undeterred, Jumalon called again.

The J♣ completed the board, slowing Mueller down, who opted to check. Jumalon took over the better lead to the tune of 2,100,000. That did the trick, as Mueller folded, much to the delight of Jumalon's boisterous rail.

Kyosuke Nagami opened to 450,000 from the button and Daniel Savas defended his big blind.

The 5♣4♣3♠ flop brought plenty of action. Savas check-raised to 825,000 over a bet of 325,000. Nagami responded with a reraise to 1,700,000 but quickly folded when Savas four-bet snap-jammed as the bigger stack.

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

In a limped pot between the blinds, Berkeley Yuan checked on the flop of 8♥7♣9♦ and Kyosuke Nagami bet 500,000. Yuan called.

Yuan checked on the 5♦ turn and Nagami bet the same 500,000. Yuan again called. Both players then checked on the Q♣ river.

Yuan showed 10♥8♣ for a pair of eights, but it was no good against the pair of nines of his opponent with J♠9♣.

After a discussion about the shot clock which came into play today, Junjie Tang opened to 400,000 from the button. Lauri Saaskilahti, in the small blind, three-bet to 1,500,000, sending Tang deep into the tank.

Tang burned one time-bank extension before four-betting all in for a total of 17,300,000. Saaskilahti didn’t need long to fold.

Ralph Perry raised to 400,000 in middle position and Evagoras Evagorou called in the big blind.

The flop came J♠6♦5♠ and Perry continued for 275,000. Evagorou called, and the 5♦ fell on the turn.

Perry then bet 1,200,000, and Evagorou again called. The river was the Q♥ and Perry bet 2,500,000. Evagorou used up a time bank before calling once more.

Perry tapped the felt in acknowledgment and went to muck his cards, while Evagorou turned over K♣J♣ for a pair of jacks to win the pot.

High-Stakes Poker Player Who Swapped Cards for Crops Returns to the WSOP

Before Michael Rocco won his first World Series of Poker bracelet two years ago, he'd already decided he was leaving poker behind.

When PokerNews caught up with the high-stakes player during the 2024 WSOP, the conversation wasn't about solvers, Player of the Year races, or the growing list of near-misses that had come to define his career. Instead, Rocco revealed he was preparing to step away from the game to pursue regenerative farming.

And then a few hours later, he finally won the bracelet he'd spent years chasing.

For most players, finally reaching the top would have been the beginning of another chapter. For Rocco, it simply meant he got to leave exactly how he'd hoped.

PokerNews caught up with the now 36-year-old to see how life is on the farm, and whether the poker grind is something that he yearns to go back to.
