2024 World Series of Poker
Into a pot of about 3,000, Ian Simpson bet 2,000 from the button with the board reading 8♣8♥J♦A♠. Andreas Wagner called the bet in the big blind.
The river was the 7♠. Simpson fired out 8,200. Wagner took quite a while to think about the decision as he fully assessed it for a solid couple of minutes. Eventually he called.
Simpson instantly mucked his cards and Wagner took the pot to move his stack over 100,000.
The pot stood at 4,500 with three players looking at a flop of 6♣K♠K♥.
The big blind checked and Jeffrey Stellwagon bet out 1,200, from the cutoff. David Farber, on the button, bumped it up with a small raise of 2,400. The big blind folded, as did Stellwagon.
Joseph Casale opened the action with a raise to 700 from early position. Rainer Sollfrank three-bet to 2,100 from the button and Casale made the call.
Sollfrank continued for 2,700 on Q♣10♠3♠ and Casale called.
The 2♦ turn hit the felt and Sollfrank bet again, this time for 5,600. Casale made the call.
Action went check-check on the 10♥ river and Casale tabled A♠Q♦ for the winner.
Action was caught on the flop of 4♣8♣10♦ in a hand between the player in the small blind, Brent Barby in the big blind, and the player in the hijack.
With a little over 3,000 in the pot, the small blind checked, Barby bet 2,000, the hijack called and the small blind called.
On the 6♣ turn, the small blind checked again, Barby bet 6,000, the hijack got out of the way and the small blind called.
The river brought the A♣, and the small blind check-folded to Barby's bet of 9,000. Barby showed K♣10♣ for the flush.
Parker Talbot raised to 400 on the button and was called by the player in the small blind and Harlan Karnofsky in the big blind.
Action checked to Talbot on the 8♦A♦2♠ flop and he continued for 200. Only Karnofsky called.
The 3♦ fell on the turn and Kanofsky checked again — prompting a 1,300 bet from Talbot. Karnosfky sent his hand into the muck and Talbot collected the pot.
Ronald Minnis and two other tablemates limped in before Cassio Kienen raised to 1,200 on the button. All three opponents called.
The flop came 6♦2♣A♥ and Minnis led out for 2,500. Action folded to Kienen who called.
The 6♥ fell on the turn and Minnis bet another 3,000. Kienen again called and both players checked the 5♠ river.
Minnis showed A♣9♥ for two pair and Kienen mucked.
