Nguyen Forced to Fold

Niveau 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

A player opened to 1,800 from under the gun and was called by a player in early position as well as the small blind. Phong Than Nguyen then three-bet to 7,500 out of the big blind, eliciting folds from both the under the gun and early position players. The small blind, however, responded by moving all in for around 35,000, enough to cover his opponent. That sent Nguyen deep into the tank as he counted out his remaining stack before eventually finding a fold to stay alive in the tournament with a relatively short stack.

Among those who fell by the wayside in the first session included Phil Ivey, Daniel Negreanu and 2022 WSOP Main Event champion Espen Jorstad, while the likes of Doug Polk, Chris Brewer and Chance Kornuth all managed to navigate through the first two rounds successfully.

So, we inputted the matchups into ChatGPT to see how it thinks the Heads Up Championship will play out. It produced many hypothetical eye-catching confrontations while also thinking that a certain someone would pick up their fourth WSOP bracelet.

Niveau 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Action is picked up on a 7♣K♥5♣ flop when it folded to the button who put out a bet of 2,000. The small blind player made the call and Caio De Almeida check raised to 7,000 from middle position. The button thought for a moment and flicked in the call and the small blind got out of the way.

Off to a 7♥ turn and Almeida continued the story as he bet 8,000. The button thought for a moment and made the call.

The 6♦ river hit and Almeida didn't think for too long before stacking the remainder of his chips and putting them in the middle. The button looked frustrated but ultimately he flipped over the K♦ and mucked his hand.

Almeida dragged a nice pot to chip up early.
