Cottrell van Wingerden

"CallYourMommy" Eliminated in 8th Place ($2,240)

Blinds: 7,000/14,000

"CallYourMommy" opened to 28,000 from under the gun and "Vertimax" three-bet to 70,000 one seat over. "Huggers23" then four-bet jammed for 454,024 out of the small blind, getting a call from "CallYourMommy" with the effective stack while "Vertimax" got out of the way.

"CallYourMommy": A♣K♣
"Huggers23": A♠Q♠

"CallYourMommy" was in excellent position to score a huge pot but they were left drawing thin after the flop came Q♦A♦2♠. Nothing changed on either the 4♣ turn or 10♦ river to send them to the rail in 8th place.

"BullseyeMD" Eliminates "Jvic2721", Final Table Set

Blinds: 6,000/12,000

"Jvic2721" opened to 36,000 on the button and called after "BullseyeMD" three-bet to 108,000 out of the small blind.

Action checked through the 10♥7♥8♦ flop to the K♠ turn at which point "BullseyeMD" led out for 48,000. "Jvic2721" just called.

"BullseyeMD" went for it all on the 7♣ river, shoving his 381,581 stack into the middle. "Jvic2721" considered for a long time before calling off for their tournament life with K♦Q♦ but was shown the bad news as "BullseyeMD" held J♠7♠ for rivered trips to bring the tournament down to the final table.

PokerStars Running Ten-Deuce Freeroll On Oct. 2 To Celebrate Doyle Brunson

Matt Hansen

PokerStars will be honoring the late Doyle Brunson with a Ten-Deuce Freeroll in celebration of the hand made famous by the Godfather of Poker, who passed away in May.

The Ten-Deuce freeroll, a reference to the hand that led Brunson to victory in consecutive World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Events, will fittingly take place on Oct. 2, the last day of the currently underway 2023 North American Championship of Online Poker (NACOOP).

In the shared market of New Jersey and Michigan, players will have the chance to win a piece of the $10,200 prize pool, while the Pennsylvania and Ontario markets will each have their own $10,200 prize pools up for grabs.
