Level 10 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

2-7 Triple Draw

Before the hand, Phil Hui was already on a dangerously low stack. After the second draw, Phil Hellmuth had a bet of 4,000 in front of him and Hui, with 3,900 behind, considered his options. He eventually opted to draw two with while Hellmuth stood pat.

Hui caught the first and already made his way out before the came along. Hellmuth's hand of was briefly revealed but easily strong enough to take the 2019 WSOP $50K PPC champion out. Hellmuth is now among the top stacks in the room.

Kaiser fired all the way from third street and Oleg Pavlyuchuk stuck around until the final card. He then angrily slammed his hand in the muck to leave the pot to Kaiser, who nestled himself among the chip leaders with the hand.

Short Day For Blasko

Level 10 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

Marek Blasko was among those opting for a super late registration in this tournament, but his bracelet attempt lasted not even one full level as the Slovakian has already ran out of chips.

In a PLO hand against Jeff Madsen and Julien Martini, Blasko committed his final 6,300 on a board, which got called by both opponents. On the river, Madsen bet 10,000 and Martini folded with a sigh.
