After his victory, Adomkevicius spoke to PokerNews about his experience winning his first bracelet.
“It feels blissful, and it’s the best feeling. I feel very blessed and grateful for the opportunity I had. I tried to play my best and was fortunate.”
Fortune aside, Adomkevicius earned his victory today. He showed aggression and patience at the right moments as he wielded a large stack throughout the entire day. Adomkevicius is no stranger to tournament poker, however.
“I have been playing for over 15 years, both live and online. I try to go to Vegas every possibility I can.”
Adomkevicius also spoke on his experience playing in a turbo format.
“It was quite a lot of different players. Some players were very gambley, so you have to adjust to that. People come to win the bracelet.”
Adomkevicius was quick to give a shoutout to his wife and kids at home for their support throughout his journey. Luckily, he gets to go home and celebrate with a WSOP gold bracelet and an extra $201,355.
Following the elimination of Wayne Harmon, the final ten players moved to the Horseshoe Event Center and combined at a single final table.
Falling in tenth place was Octaviano Duran. He moved all-in from under the gun with pocket eights before Theo Tran rejammed with ace-ten. Tran made a full house to eliminate Duran in tenth.
The next casualty was Edward Small in ninth place. He called off with ace-ten from the small blind after Mark Newhouse jammed with ace-jack from middle position. Small failed to improve and he was knocked out in ninth place.
In eighth place was Dong Chen. He jammed his final three big blinds from the button with king-nine and was called by the queen-jack suited of Peter Bigelow in the big blind. Unfortunately for Chen, a jack fell on the turn, and he was eliminated in eighth place.
The next to fall was Jakob Miegel in seventh place. He three-bet jammed pocket kings over a Mark Newhouse open who called with ace-ten. Unfortunately for Miegel, Newhouse flopped an ace and improved to trips on the river as Miegel hit the rail in seventh.
The final six would trade chips for some time before John Holley called Theo Tran’s cutoff jam from the small blind while covered. Holley held ace-ten against the king-jack of Tran. Holley would flop a pair of aces, but a fourth heart on the river gave Tran a flush and sent Holley home in sixth place.
Shortly after, Kenneth Kim would fall in fifth place. He became short-stacked and called Peter Bigelow’s jam from the big blind. Bigelow held ace-king against the seven-six of Kim and ace-high held as Kim hit the rail in fifth place.
The next casualty was Peter Bigelow in fourth place. Aneris Adomkevicius jammed the small blind with pocket sevens, and Bigelow snap-called with ace-king. Unfortunately for Bigelow, the board bricked out, and pocket sevens held to eliminate Bigelow in fourth.
Shortly after, Theo Tran got knocked out in third. Tran jammed the small blind with ace-jack and Mark Newhouse called with pocket sevens as the slightly covering stack in the big blind. The board did not improve Tran as pocket sevens were accountable for another elimination, and Tran hit the rail in third place.
The heads-up battle between Aneris Adomkevicius and Mark Newhouse would last just twenty minutes. Newhouse jammed his final 15 big blinds from the button with jack-eight and was called by the pocket sixes of Adomkevicius. Newhouse failed to improve, and Adomkevicius raised his hands in the air as the last event of the 2024 World Series of Poker came to a close.
