Livello 24 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Shahram "Shawn" Sheikhan, who pled guilty in 2022 to conspiracy to distribute marijuana, a federal crime, was sentenced to four years in federal prison on Friday morning in the United States District Court Southern District of California.

The veteran poker player who infamously feuded with Mike Matusow during the 2005 World Series of Poker (WSOP) television broadcast, had faced a maximum sentence of 40 years in federal prison and a $5 million fine.

Last month, his attorneys filed a memorandum with the court asking for prison time to be replaced with probation and community service. Poker Hall of Famer and PokerGO President Mori Eskandani, among others, wrote a letter of support on his behalf.

Livello 24 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Michael Rocco opened to 400,000 in the hijack with A♠9♠, only to see Gab Yong Kim three-bet all in to 2,300,000 holding 5♣5♥ in the big blind.

Rocco took some time but ultimately decided to lay his hand down, telling the table that a voice told him "you need to fold" before Kim shoved his stack.

Cedric Schwaederle Eliminated in 7th Place (€82,900)

Livello 24 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel raised to 400,000 from early position before Daniel Dvoress flat-called from the hijack. Cedric Schwaederle was in the cutoff and went on to jam all in for 4,300,000 chips.

Kabrhel quickly folded but Dvoress asked for a count and made the call to put Schwaederle at risk.

Cedric Schwaederle: A♦K♣
Daniel Dvoress: A♣Q♥

Schwaederle was dominating Dvoress, but the 6♣Q♠8♦ flop reversed the situation. No help arrived for Schwaederle on the 5♥6♠ runout and he graciously took his leave in seventh place.

Martin Kabrhel opened to 425,000 with 10♣10♦ in the hijack and Niklas Astedt defended his big blind holding 7♣2♣.

Astedt checked the 6♣5♣K♥ flop and called when Kabrhel continued for 400,000. Astedt then led out for 700,000 on the 8♦ turn and Kabrhel made the call.

Kabrhel Gets Out of Line

Livello 24 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel raised to 400,000 from the cutoff with 10♣4♥, and received calls from Daniel Dvoress on the button with 9♠9♣ and Gab Yong Kim in the big blind with 9♥8♠.

The 7♣Q♣5♦ was checked by all three players before the 7♥ turn was dealt. Kim checked again, but Kabrhel fired a bet of 500,000 chips this time. Dvoress stuck around with a call while Kim got out of the way after some thinking time.

The 4♠ river paired up Kabrhel, leading to a check from the Czech. Dvoress quickly checked behind and his pair of nines awarded him a nice pot.

Kabrhel and Rocco Wage War on the River

Livello 23 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Michael Rocco limped his button with 6♥5♥ and Martin Kabrhel checked 7♦5♦ from the big blind. The pair then went on to check through the J♠4♠2♥ flop, as well as the J♦ turn.

The A♦ river completed the board and Kabrhel checked for a third time. Rocco then made the minimum bet of 160,000, after which Kabrhel responded with a raise to 360,000.

However, Rocco was a non-believer and put in a three-bet to 560,000. Kabrhel did not engage further and mucked his cards, awarding the pot to Rocco's six-high.
