The seven players remaining have gone on a 15-minute break.
2024 World Series of Poker
Siavash Bahri raised on the button to 2,500,000 and was met by an all in from the much bigger stack of Ben Collins. Bahri made the call.
Siavash Bahri: A♠A♥
Ben Collins: A♦7♠
This was the second time Bahri had aces this final table and the flop was no sweat when it came down K♣9♥10♥ and it appeared Bahri had just about secured victory when the 8♥ peeled off, giving him the nut flush draw to go with his aces.
The table let out at collective moan when the 6♦ rolled off the deck, giving a lively and lucky Ben Collins a straight on the river.
Bahri took the beat on the chin and every single one of his tablemates took a moment to shake his hand and share empathy at such a tremendously bad beat.

Siavash Bahri raised to 2,200,000 ad Paul Serrate defended his big blind.
Heads up to a flop of K♦6♠J♥. Bahri went all in when checked to and Serrate made the call.
Siavash Bahri: A♠A♣
Paul Serrate: K♥10♣
Serrate's pair of kings was behind Bahri's aces. The turn bricked the 5♠ and the Q♠ didn't improve Serrate either.
Bahri is now well in contention with a healthy stack.

Gerald Schnierer got his last 6,000,000 all in preflop but was sad to see he was behind when Tolga Gesli put him at risk.
Gerald Schnierer: A♠Q♣
Tolga Gesli: Q♥Q♠
Schnierer did his best to summon an ace every street but it wasn't his day, as the board ran out 3♣2♥8♠6♠10♠.
