Event #38: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Championship
Giorno 3 iniziato
If the World Series of Poker gave out silky velvet jackets for winning five bracelets like Saturday Night Live does for stars who host the show five times, they might have to order more the way things are going this summer.
With Josh Arieh, Brian Yoon, and John Monette having already become the 33rd-35th members of the WSOP five-timers club in recent weeks, Benny Glaser or Julien Martini could become number 36 if the cards fall their way Saturday on the final day of Event #38: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw Championship.
Glaser leads the remaining ten players with 1,695,000 chips while Martini is still well in the mix with 660,000 chips. Potential future five-timers club members Joao Vieira (1,105,000 – 2 bracelets), David "Bakes" Baker (750,000 – 3 bracelets) are also within striking distance.

When play resumes at 1 p.m. in the Horseshoe Event Center, the final ten will all be looking to build on the $25,822 that they’ve already earned, with their eyes on the $311,428 first prize and that cherished WSOP bracelet.
The day will start at Level 18 with blinds of 10,000 / 20,000 and limits of 20,000 / 40,000, with play continuing until a champion, be it a five-timer, first-timer, or otherwise, is crowned.

George Alexander raised in the cutoff and got called by Benny Glaser in the big blind. Alexander had only 20,000 chips remaining.
Each player drew three, and after Glaser checked, Alexander committed the remainder of his chips, which Glaser called.
The players then drew one on the second draw and Glaser stood pat on the final draw.
Alexander then went into the tank to decide whether to pat as well or draw.
During his nearly three minutes of decision making he said "I think I'm just dead either way."
Ultimately he chose to draw one card and saw that he was up against a rough nine (9x8x7x6x4x).
Alexander was drawing very live with his 9x5x4x2x, but peeled another 9x, pairing up to end his day quickly in tenth place.

Oscar Johansson raised from under the gun and Alexander Wilkinson three-bet all in for his remaining stack on the button. Action folded back to Johansson, who called to put Wilkinson at risk.
Johansson drew one on all three rounds, while Wilkinson drew two on the first round and stood pat the rest of the way.
Wilkinson tabled 9x8x6x4x2x and Johansson ended up pairing his board on the end — awarding Wilkinson the double up.

Even though Jason Koon bagged Day 1 of Event #40: $250,000 Super High Roller at the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP), he will not be joining the other High Rollers for Day 2. The high-stakes star had his stack pulled from the largest buy-in event of the summer after he received word that his wife was in labor with their second child just in time for Father's Day.
Koon, who bagged a stack of 1,740,000 — a little more than the starting stack of 1,500,000 — will be fully refunded for his $250,000 entry, according to WSOP officials.
"Prior to the end of registration in event 40 with more than a starting stack, entrant Jason Koon requested a void and refund so as to accompany his wife to the hospital who had gone into labor," WSOP told PokerNews. "Request was granted. Issuing a refund before the end of registration is clearly within the discretion of tournament officials and common practice at WSOP. We wish Jason Koon and all our WSOP dads a happy Father's Day."
After Jason Papastavrou limped his small blind, he called a raise from Benny Glaser in the big blind and drew two, while the chip leader drew one.
Papastavrou check-called another bet after the draw and then took two again on the second draw, while Glaser still only needed one.
Following another Papastavrou check, Glaser bet again and received another call. Each player took one on the final draw.
Alexander checked a final time and then faced a final bet from Glaser. Alexander finally folded to send the pot to the four-time bracelet winner.

Joao Vieira raised from under the gun and was three-bet by David "Bakes" Baker in the hijack. Action folded to Alexander Wilkinson in the big blind, who called cold. Vieira called as well for a three-way pot.
Everyone drew one on the first draw and then action checked through.
On the second draw, each player took one off again and then Wilkinson led out for a bet. Vieira folded, but Baker raised after a bit of thought. Wilkinson reraised all in and Baker called to put him at risk.
Both stood pat on the end and Wilkinson turned up 8x7x5x3x2x. It was no good, however, against the 8x5x4x3x2x of Baker and Wilkinson was sent out in ninth place.

Sampo Ryynanen raised in the cutoff and got called by Jason Papastavrou in the big blind. Papastavrou drew two while Ryynanen took one.
After a check-call from Papastavrou, each player drew one and Papastavrou checked again. He faced another bet and called it, still needing one card while the Finn patted his hand.
Papastavrou checked a final time and faced one more bet which he couldn't call, sending more chips across the table.
