Greg Raymer

Greg Raymer got all in on the flop heads up. He had a set of fours versus the club flush draw of his opponent. The turn brought the flush, but the river paired the board and Raymer earned the knockout.

He is now up more than 80,000 from his Day 2 starting stack.

Raymer won the Main Event in 2004 for $5,000,000 and has added another million in earnings since then with 35 WSOP cashes.

Timothy Adams Doubles Up

Niveau 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

A player in middle position raised to 1,900, Timothy Adams reraised all in for 18,900 from the small blind, and the initial raiser called with {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}, trailing Adams' {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}.

The board came down {5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{A-Hearts}, giving Adams aces and fives to double through his opponent.

Pratyush Buddiga

The player under the gun raised to 1,800, Josh Arieh called from middle position, Pratyush Buddiga called from the hijack, and the big blind also called.

The four players saw a flop of {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and the big blind checked. The preflop raiser checked as well and Arieh bet 3,700. Buddiga called, the big blind called, and after a few moments of thought, the preflop raiser called as well.

The turn brought the {7-Spades} and all four players checked.

The river was the {7-Diamonds} and action checked to Buddiga who bet 13,000. The bet represented about half of the big blind's remaining chips and he went into the tank briefly before he folded. The preflop raiser folded, Arieh folded also, and Buddiga took the chips.

Both players had two pair, but Lutes had a better two pair with jacks and threes to take the pot.

Interview: Qui Nguyen Has Big Plans Post-WSOP

Niveau 7 : 400/800, 100 ante
Qui Nguyen Eliminated
Qui Nguyen Eliminated

Since Qui Nguyen took down the 2016 WSOP Main Event for over $8 million at the Rio here in Las Vegas, he's something of a celebrity ,as you can imagine. We caught up with him on the rail as he ran the gauntlet of the corridors outside the Amazon, packed with fans asking for selfies. He told us all about his exit.

"In the final hand, I raised [James Akenhead] up with king-queen off-suit. He was in the big blind and called me with {Q-Spades}{7-Spades}. The flop came {K-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Clubs}, so he checked. I bet 2,700 and he raised to around 7,000. I snap-called. On the turn, the {8-Clubs} came and he made it 16,000. I only had around 30,000 so I shipped all in. He called. Jack of spades on the river!"

Nguyen laughs, but his WSOP Main Event defense is over. He admits that poker can be cruel, but knows how much variance exists in any tournament win.

"Poker is cruel, but only sometimes. Even if you play well, if you don't get any luck, there's nothing you can do. Everyone needs the luck to win. Even me."

Nguyen is modest about his own victory last year. He's also enjoyed meeting the many hundreds of fans he has here in Las Vegas who were cheering him on.

"It was great when I came back here. I'm very professional; everyone wants to shake my hand and take their picture with me. It's cool. After winning here at the Rio, I didn't go out much. I enjoyed the moment with my friends and family, but I couldn't wait to get back to playing poker."

Nguyen's plans post-WSOP in 2016 always included helping the Vietnamese people from his homeland and some Vietnamese people's battle to escape poverty.

"I'm going back home and my plan is to help the people. Some have no house and no food. I wanted to donate some money to help other people. There are a lot of people who struggle in life and I want to help. I'm just so lucky compared to other people, so I want to help those out there who are struggling. I'm very happy, but everyone should be happy."

Nguyen says Las Vegas itself is a treasured part of his life now. He lives in Sin City and won't be swapping that for anywhere else in the world right now. He may just travel a bit more in his next year as a former rather than reigning WSOP champion.

"I always play here. I might travel a little more this year. I've never been to Macau or China so I might travel there. In December with the World Series out there, I may go there. I love to travel in the United States and I live in Vegas. It's so great for poker. I'm a gambling guy, so I love this city. But just remember, don't gamble too much!"

Doug Polk Pays Off Another River (When Will He Learn)

Sam Grafton and Doug Polk dueling

On a board reading {K-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{10-Hearts} with roughly 24,000 in the middle, Sam Grafton bet out 12,100 from the button following a check from Doug Polk in the small blind.

Both of them continued to talk as Polk listed possible hand combinations that both players could have.

Eventually Polk called and Grafton tabled his {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} for top pair.

"Quite good. Quite good," stated Polk before mucking.

"Hey, PokerNews. Could you title this 'Doug Polk pays off another river'!" stated Grafton as he looked in the direction of our PokerNews reporter.

"Yeah, and then in parenthesis after it put, 'when will he learn'," added Polk.

"Look, ESPN are worried. They want to speed up this level. They're saying, if Doug sees another few rivers, he may be out!" laughed Grafton as he gestured toward the ESPN camera crew standing nearby.

Nguyen Busts Two in Massive Pot

Niveau 7 : 400/800, 100 ante
Dylan Nguyen

There was already around 50,000 in the pot with the turn showing {9-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Diamonds} and a player checked in early position. Michal Danka in the cutoff bet 30,000 and Dylan Nguyen called that bet from the small blind. The third player in the hand moved all in and Danka called the shove.

Nguyen asked for a count on the all-in, which was deemed to be for 84,500, and Danka had around 10,000 behind. Nguyen then moved all in himself and the first player at risk jokingly asked, "Anyone have a set?" while Danka was still to act. The Swede called it off shortly after and the cards were tabled.

Player in early position: {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}
Danka: {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts}
Nguyen: {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}

Nguyen only had to dodge the two remaining aces and the case deuce in the deck, and that's exactly what happened with the blank {K-Clubs} river. Danka had around 92,000 in chips and Nguyen more than 100,000, scoring a double knockout to skyrocket his stack.

A player in early position raised to 3,000, the next player called, and a player in late position three-bet to 10,000. It folded to Vivian Saliba in the big blind, and she moved her stack of 42,600 chips into the middle.

The initial raiser shook his head and folded, the next player folded, and the three-bettor thought for a little while. He let his hand go, and Saliba took down the pot with no showdown.

No Win for Qui Nguyen; A New Champion Will Rise

Niveau 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Catching the action on the turn, Qui Nguyen was all in and at risk against James Akenhead with 84,000 in the pot. Nguyen was holding {K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}. Akenhead was holding {Q-Spades}{7-Spades}. The board read {10-Spades}{K-Spades}{7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}.

Nguyen had a pair of kings, but Akenhead had a pair of sevens as well as a flush draw.

Nguyen let out a hefty grunt as the {J-Spades} fell on the river and that gave Akenhead the winning flush to take down the big pot and to eliminate the reigning Main Event champion from the tournament.

Nguyen stood up and shook hands with everyone as he left the tournament area.
