Niveau 6

Derek McMaster, the 2019 champion of this event, was all in from early position and got three callers, including Joe Serock in middle position and Evgeni Tourevski in the big blind.

As WSOP VP Jack Effel stopped by to chat with tablemate Sam Farha, the four players saw a flop of 9♥3♥10♠ where Serock bet and was called by both Tourevski and a player in the hijack.

The turn came the J♦ and Tourevski led out with a bet. Serock folded but the hijack called. Tourevski bet again on the 5♠ river and the hijack again called.

Tourevski turned over K♥2♥Q♣5♣ for the turned straight as he took the pot to send McMaster to the rail.

Niveau 6

On a flop of 7♦3♠3♦, Jon Maren bet from under the gun and was called by a player in the hijack and Chris Tryba in the cutoff before the small blind raised all in.

All three opponents called to the 9♦ turn where Maren checked, the hijack bet, Tryba raised, and Maren folded. The hijack called to the J♠ river, where they check-called another bet by Tryba.

"I would've had ace-three but I ended up with three nines," Tryba said as he turned over 9♥9♠A♠3♣ for the turned full house. His opponent flashed 7x3x for the flopped full house. The small blind mucked his hand and was eliminated.

"Brad, you go right to the top of my list," Tryba told the dealer.

"Thank you, Brad," the defeated hijack player added with a touch of sarcasm.
