Event #42: $800 No-Limit Hold'em Deepstack (8-Handed)
Jour 1 a débuté
The excitement continues to build at the 2023 World Series of Poker as players gear up for Event #42: the $800 No-Limit Hold'em Deepstack. The tournament kicks off Sunday, June 18, at 10 a.m. local time for two days of action at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
Last year, Richard Alsup claimed the title, the bracelet, and $272,065, defeating a field of 2,812 runners. Will he defend his crown this year, or will a new champion emerge? If the trend continues, last year's field size will be eclipsed by a much larger crowd.
Players will start with a stack of 40,000 chips and play 30-minute levels, with one reentry possible, allowing players who bust to take another shot. Late registration will be open for 12 levels (until about 5 p.m.).
Throughout the day, there will be 20-minute breaks every four levels and a 75-minute dinner break at the end of Level 15, approximately 7 p.m. Players remaining at the end of Level 22 on Day 1 will return at 10:00 a.m. on Monday for Day 2. The tournament will continue on the second day until a winner has been found.

A player in the hijack raised to 300 and Cliff Yuan three-bet to 1,000 on the button before the small blind put in a four-bet to 2,400. Only Yuan made the call.
The dealer fanned a flop of Q♠10♦6♣ and the small blind continued for 1,100. Yuan called.
The 5♣ hit the turn and the small blind fired a bet of 4,900. Yuan took a moment and made the call.
When the 8♠ landed on the river, the small blind fired for a third time, this time the bet was 12,500. Yuan went into tank for about three minutes before sliding some chips across the line to make the call.
Yuan's opponent said "good call" as he tabled A♣4♣ and Yuan dragged the pot with J♣J♠.

From middle position, James Cook just called for 100 chips. The small blind checked, but the player in the big blind decided to raise to 500. The two other players in the hand called.
On the flop 7♥8♥6♠, the big blind put 600 more chips in the middle. And once again, everybody called to find the 5♥ on the turn. With this card, the blinds checked and Cook took the lead betting 2,000 chips. Player in the small blind folded, but the big blind called.
The 6♦ appeared on the river. A fifth card on the board that both players checked. Then, Cook showed K♦9♦ for a straight hit on the turn. Quite unhappy, the big blind revealed K♥K♠ and saw the pot going in Cook's hands.
