Niveau 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

The $25K Fantasy league is starting to see some separation as Team The Dinkers (Josh Kay) has opened up a nice lead of 478 points, which is a good bit ahead of both Team Sternheimer (330 points) and Team Oz (251 points). Of the 19 teams, six have failed to cross the 100-point mark, while Team Chingas (19 points) and Team Lucky (17 point) at the bottom of the pack.

PokerNews has been tracking $25K Fantasy players in our live updates and has even made it simple to follow the action by tagging all players with a $25K Fantasy badge. That allows you to utilize our chip count filter option to follow only those players (just tick the $25K Fantasy badge); what’s more, each blog will have a “$25K Fantasy” tab that if you click all you will see are hands played by $25K Fantasy players.

As a result, we can capture some of the biggest, best, and most game-changing hands involving the $25K Fantasy roster. Here are five from the last week of action in the 2024 WSOP.

Scott Ball Eliminated in 8th Place ($36,385)

Niveau 29 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Sean Ragozzini opened from under the gun to 200,000 and Robert Natividad three-bet to 725,000 on the button. Scott Ball was in the small blind and shoved all in for over 3,000,000, which got Ragozzini to fold, but Natividad snap-called.

Scott Ball: Q♦Q♥ All in
Robert Natividad: A♠K♦

Ball needed to win the flip to stay alive but got off to a bad start as the 7♠2♥K♠ flop improved Natividad to top pair.

The A♣ turn gave Natividad two pair and Ball couldn't find a two-outer on the river as the 8♠ completed the runout.
