In a four-way pot on a flop of 7♠5♦6♣, 2023 WSOP Main Event final tablist Adam Walton bet 900 on the button and only Sirzat Hissou called in the small blind.

Hissou checked on the J♥ turn and Walton sized up to 2,500. Hissou called. Hissou checked again on the 7♥ river and Walton eyed his chips before pushing out a stack of yellow T-5,000 chips to put Hissou all in for his remaining 10,000.

"Ace-eight?" Walton asked.

"Better," replied Hissou.

Hissou eventually called and Walton showed the goods with 9♥8♠ for a flopped straight as his opponent hit the rail.

Barbero Eliminated by Roberts

Niveau 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

A larger pot emerged between Nacho Barbero on the button and Christian Roberts in the big blind. They were on the Q♠7♣6♦Q♣10♣ river on which Roberts had checked and Barbero bet 25,500.

The check-shove of Roberts followed and Barbero was outright disgusted, then bemoaned the situation and mulled it over. Nearly one minute later, he called it off and Roberts tabled the Q♦10♦ for a full house.

Barbero briefly flashed his cards for what appeared to be a flopped set and inferior full house.

"You run so bad against me," Roberts declared while Barbero quickly left the crime scene.

On a flop of Q♠Q♣2♥, Julien Perouse check-called a bet of 4,000 by Hayden Toole and checked again the 8♥ turn. Toole bet 20,000 with little behind and Perouse jammed, Toole called it off.

Hayden Toole: 10♠10♥
Julien Perouse: K♥Q♥

Toole had just two outs but instead, it was Perouse who improved to quads with the Q♦ river.

"What is your alias online?" Arash Shahi inquired and Perouse grinned back "Giuseppe".

"Wait, you are Giuseppe? Fuck ... okay, we need to get a picture," Shah joked back and grabbed his smart phone.

Shah also mentioned that Perouse had flipped out Derek Whelan with ace-king versus jacks with another player claiming to have folded kings.

Michael Sklenicka then arrived with a fresh stack and asked if Perouse could give him some run-good chips.

As the hand concluded, Lexy Gavin-Mather passed by and remarked "kill me now ... I bricked an open ended royal flush draw".
