Livello 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

Ryan Smith, who won two Circuit Rings during a single stop back in May 2022, raised to 20,000 from late position and Motoyoshi Okamura moved all-in from the small blind for 75,000, which Smith called.

Motoyoshi Okamura: A♥6♠
Ryan Smith: A♣K♠

Okamura would need to spike a six or some four-card straight or flush outs, but the final runout of 2♥7♦5♣K♥10♥ would send the 2021 champion of this event to the payout desk.

Fujimoto would need a lot of help after the flop came 6♣10♦9♠. The Q♣ turn gave him a shot at Broadway, but the 10♣ sent him to the payout window as Piontke added to his stack.
