Livello 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Picking up the action on the river, Alex Greenblatt in the small blind was involved in a hand with Joseph Bold on the button.

With the board reading 9♠3♥Q♠4♦7♦ and a large number of chips already in the middle, Greenblatt moved all in for 775,000. After asking for a count, Bold made the call but mucked with some frustration after Greenblatt tabled 9♣7♣ for two pair as he conceded a pot with massive equity considerations to his opponent.

Elsewhere, Giuseppe Vassallo was seen making his way to the payout desk.

Nanos Survives on Rollercoaster Runout

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

With 240,000 chips in the middle on a flop of 3♠2♣5♣. Konstantinos Nanos bet 110,000 then called off the remainder of his short stack after Toby Gibson shoved.

Konstantinos Nanos: A♠A♣ All in
Toby Gibson: K♦4♦

Nanos needed to fade the open-ended straight draw of his opponent, and was the favorite to do so as he held two of GIbson's outs. However, the A♥ on the turn gave Nanos a set, but the same card improved Gibson to a straight. Nanos needed the board to pair but instead the 4♣ river gave both players a straight, which ended the rollercoaster of emotions.

Livello 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Aloisio Dourado was all in for his last 640,000 from early position and up against 2022 PokerNews Cup Winner Gary Gelman on the button.

Aloisio Dourado: A♦J♥ All in
Gary Gelman: K♥K♠

Dourado needed help to stay alive as the J♠5♠4♦ flop gave him some hope with a pair. The turn was the 8♥, while the A♠ fell on the river to give him two pair and a double up.

"You should be on your way back to Brazil, my friend. On a plane," Gelman said as he handed over most of his stack.

Insane Runout Spells the End for Livingston

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 23 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Alex Livingston moved all in for 275,000 from early position and was looked up by Guillermo Sanchez Otero on the button.

Alex Livingston: J♠10♠ All in
Guillermo Sanchez Otero: 7♦7♠

"I like my hand," Livingston told the table as he saw that he would need to win a flip to survive. The A♣Q♥K♣ flop instantly improved the at-risk player to broadway and seemingly locked up the pot for Livingston. Otero found some hope, however, on the 7♥ turn with the A♦ river completing a rollercoaster runout that saw Otero's runner-runner full house down the flopped joint of Livingston.
