Berkey Pays Off Boat

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Matt Berkey opened in early position and the small blind and big blind both defended.

The blinds checked on the flop of {2-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} and Berkey fired a bet of 1,500. Only the big blind called.

The big blind checked again on the {q-Diamonds} turn and Berkey checked back. The opponent then led out with a bet of 5,200 on the {2-Hearts} river and Berkey quickly called.

The player tabled {9-Spades}{2-Diamonds} for a full house and Berkey smirked and nodded before folding his hand.

Engel Cracks Kings to Double

Level 5 : 300/600, 600 ante

Ari Engel was in a heads-up pot and committed nearly all of his stack in the middle with just 100 behind.

Engel tossed in his last chip before the dealer could fan the flop of {5-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{j-Spades} and was instantly called.

Ari Engel: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}
Opponent: {k-Clubs}{k-Spades}

Engel had flopped top pair but was still behind the pocket kings of his opponent. The turn brought the {a-Hearts} to push Engel ahead with two pair and his hand improved further on the {a-Spades} river to give him a full house.

Loeliger Shoves River

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

Paulina Loeliger in the small blind was in a three-way pot on a board of {k-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} with around 16,000 already in the middle.

Loeliger put out a flop bet of 2,500 and the next player to act tanked for several minutes, prompting someone else at the table to call the clock. The player eventually called, as did the player behind him.

Loeliger fired for 5,000 on the {5-Spades} turn and only one opponent called. The river brought the {5-Hearts} and Loeliger moved all-in, which prompted a snap-fold from her opponent.

Berkey Folds Flush

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

With roughly 15,000 in the pot on a completed board of {k-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{7-Clubs}{2-Spades}{8-Spades}, Matt Berkey had 10,000 chips committed to the pot in middle position, and the big blind player moved all-in for approximately 35,000.

Berkey thought about it, and tossed his cards onto the felt face-up, revealing the {q-Spades}{j-Spades}. His opponent took the pot and sent his cards into the muck, leaving Berkey to wonder the contents of his exact hole cards.

Everything You Need to Know About the Wynn Poker Room!

Wynn Poker Room
Wynn Poker Room

Luxurious is the first word that pops into your head when thinking about Wynn Las Vegas. It is one of the newer hotel complexes on the famous Las Vegas Strip and one of the most lavish.

The project was named Le Rêve, French for "the dream" when it was in its infancy before becoming Wynn Las Vegas, or simply the Wynn, before its grand opening in April 2005. Wynn Las Vegas and its neighboring Encore are considered one of the world's finest hotels.

Needless to say, the Wynn poker room is one of the best places to play poker in Las Vegas with 24/7 non-stop poker action on tap.

The poker room at Wynn Las Vegas is located at Encore and is an expansive room. It offers an elevated poker experience with 28 tables, each equipped with USB charging points.

Cash games run 24 hours per day, including No-Limit Hold'em, Pot-Limit Omaha, and Mixed Games. $1/$3, $2/$5, and $5/$10 No-Limit Hold'em games are always plentiful, as are $1/$2 and $5/$5 Pot-Limit Omaha. $9/$18 Mixed Games run several times per week, and you can find $10/$25 No-Limit Hold'em cash games taking place most weekends.

Cash game players are urged to sign up for the Wynn Las Vegas' Red Card loyalty scheme because doing so earns you $1.50 per hour in comp points.

The Wynn caters to multi-table tournament players, too. Daily tournaments with buy-ins of $200 to $300 run outside of festivals and series, but it is the primary tournament festivals where the Wynn shines.

A trio of seasonal festivals run in Spring, Summer, and Fall and come with some massive guaranteed prize pools. Buy-ins for these special series tend to fall between $400 and $2,200 and are accompanied by guarantees in excess of $750,000.

In June 2021, the inaugural Wynn Millions took place, a $10,000 buy-in event with a $10 million guaranteed prize pool. Some 1,328 players bought in, creating a $12,483,200 prize pool where the eventual champion walked away with an incredible $2,018,666.
