John Racener opened from under the gun and then called after Anthony Marsico moved all in out of the small blind.
Anthony Marsico: 8♣8♦
John Racener: 10♠10♣
Marsico was in bad shape and was left doing the stand up routine following the 3♠3♣9♠ flop. It did not work, however, as the board completed K♣A♣ to keep the tens ahead and eliminate Marsico in fourth place.

Marco Johnson raised on the button, before being three-bet by Anthony Marsico in the small blind. Johnson elected to make the call.
The flop came Q♥7♥5♥ when Marsico lead out for a bet, then was raised by Johnson. Marsico made a three-bet, and Johnson called to see the turn.
After the turn which was the 2♠, again Marsico bet and was raised by Johnson. Just like the flop, Marsico put in the three bet, which Johnson called.
The river brought the 10♥ and Marsico bet and was raised by Johnson for the third straight street. Once Johnson made the raise, Marsico punched the tabled and yelled "What the F**k" before flicking in a call.
Johnson quickly flipped over A♥6♦ for the nut flush. Marsico was muttering curse words to himself before showing the table K♥6♥ for the second nut flush.

Anthony Marsico opened in the small blind and Shyamsundar Challa three-bet out of the big blind. Marsico came back over the top with Challa ending up getting his remaining chips in the middle.
Shyamsundar Challa: A♥9♥
Anthony Marsico: A♦8♣
Challa had Marsico dominated but the roles quickly reversed after the 5♦8♥6♦ flop. The 4♥ turn brought in a flush draw for Challa but the river bricked out Q♣ to send him to the rail in fifth place.

When it folded to Shyamsundar Challa in the small blind, he raised, and Chad Eveslage in the big blind called.
The flop came J♣2♠J♥ and Eveslage called the bet from Challa.
After the 10♥ on the turn, Challa bet once more, but this time Eveslage raised the bet and Challa made the call.
Challa check-called the bet from Eveslage after the 2♣ completed the board.
Challa quickly flipped over QxQx but it was Eveslage with the winner showing QxJx for trip jacks.
After the hand Challa was left with less than two big bets.

John Racener opened from under the gun and action folded around to Shyamsundar Challa on the button who three-bet. Justin Kusumowidagdo came in with the cold four-bet out of the small blind while things got even spicier after Chad Eveslage put in a five-bet in the big blind. Racener quickly vacated the pot but both Challa and Kusumowidagdo called to generate a large pot heading to the flop.
Kusumowidagdo moved all in on the 2♠7♣7♥ flop for less than a bet. Eveslage and Challa each wagered one bet to put Kusumowidagdo at risk and get action going on the side.
Eveslage continued to pump up the pot on the 2♥ turn. Challa was still not going anywhere, instead making the call.
The J♥ river saw Eveslage get one last bet paid off by Challa as he tabled K♥K♣ for a winner, with Challa holding 9♠9♣. Kusumowidagdo, meanwhile, could only muster an ace-high hand to bring his deep run to a close in 6th place.

On the river was the 7♦ to complete the board, and after Marsico checked, Racener put out a bet. Marsico called and was shown K♣J♠ for top pair, and Marsico mucked his hand.

Is there ever such a thing as a jinx in poker?
Martin Stausholm would be forgiven for thinking so after bubbling the debuting Event #16: $5,000 8-Handed No-Limit Hold'em at the 2024 World Series of Poker.
Stausholm, a poker player from Denmark, was one of the 823 entries to make up the field. From Day 1, 239 out of 660 made it over the first hurdle, and they were joined by 163 more players who took advantage of the Day 2 registration.
With that, 402 players were in contention for the $660,284 first-place prize, but only 124 of them could make the money and take a share of the $3,785,800 prize pool.
At 125 remaining, Stausholm had a run-in with Alex Keating, which featured a premature announcement.
Marco Johnson opened on the button and called after Ronnie Bardah three-bet out of the small blind.
Bardah bet almost as soon as the 4♠5♥9♥ flop hit the felt. Johnson raised, Bardah moved all in and his opponent called.
Ronnie Bardah: J♥J♦
Marco Johnson: Q♥9♠
Bardah was in good shape to get the double, that is until the turn came 9♦ to improve Johnson to trips. Nothing changed on the 10♥ river to send Bardah out in 7th place.
