Action was picked up on the turn in a pot where Mike Krescanko was all in and at risk and three players had called.
The board read J♦8♠5♥3♠, and action checked around to Joey Couden, who bet from early position and Jared Talarico in late position, and Joshua Ray on the button called.
On the river A♠, Couden bet once more and Talarico and Ray called.
Mike Krescanko: XxXxXxXx
Joey Couden: K♠Q♦J♣J♠
Jared Talarico: A♥7♦6♥2♠
Joshua Ray: XxXxXxXx
Ray and Krescanko mucked too quickly to be seen, leaving Couden's set of jacks and Talerico's low to chop up the pot.
Four bets were put in on third street, with Brian Schwartz all in for his last bets.
Brian Schwartz: XxXx/7♠9♥7♣2♠/Xx
Federico Ottenio: XxXx/6♥5♥A♣J♦/Xx
Jon Kyte: XxXx/5♣2♦9♣8♦/Xx
Yuebin Guo: XxXx/2♥Q♣A♦ (Folded on fifth street)
Action checked to Ottenio on fourth street who bet and both players called.
Schwartz made open sevens on fifth street and action checked around to Ottenio who bet and only Kyte called.
Sixth street saw Ottenio check over to Kyte who bet and Ottenio called.
Both players checked seventh street and Ottenio tabled A♥7♥3♣ for a pair of aces and a seven-six low which was good for the side against Kyte who flashed 8x8x.
Schwartz turned over 10♥9♠8♠ for nines and sevens which was good for half of the main to survive while Ottenio took the other half to climb to over one million.
Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the eighth episode, Connor speaks with legendary UFC ring announcer Bruce Buffer in an exclusive in-depth interview after Buffer's deep run in the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) $50,000 High Roller. Buffer, a longtime poker player, finished in eighth place for a career-best $212,423 after kicking off Day 3 with his trademark "it's time" introduction.
Buffer talked about finding his long-lost half-brother, Michael Buffer, and becoming his manager, the early days of the UFC, the similarities between poker and martial arts, his relationships with Joe Rogan and Dana White, playing poker with Tobey Maguire and Leonardo DiCaprio and the time he injured himself in a poker tournament before announcing the biggest UFC fight in history.
