Tyler Foran

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Mario Lauro opened to 700 and Floyd Washer three-bet to 3,000. Ronnie Bardah was in the small blind and made the call before Lauro put in a four-bet to 12,000. Only Washer stuck around with a call.

When the 7♠4♦3♥ flop hit the felt, Lauro moved all-in and Washer called off his last 26,700.

Floyd Washer: Q♥Q♠ All in
Mario Lauro: A♠A♥

Washer was in the danger zone as he ran into the aces of Lauro and the 3♠ turn was no help, however, the Q♦ river improved him to queens full to remain in the 2024 Main Event.

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

The small blind raised to 600 and Christina Gollins called in the big blind. Gollins then called the small blind's 800-chip bet on the 9♣Q♦3♠ flop before the J♣ emerged from the deck on the turn.

The small blind continued for 900, after which Gollins shoved all in for 3,200. The small blind quickly folded as Gollins chipped up to 24 big blinds.

On another table, Cassandra Yong was eliminated from the tournament with trips over trips.

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Julien Labarriere opened to 700 from middle position and was called by Manig Loeser on the button. Stephen Jaeger then three-bet to 3,000 out of the small blind, receiving a call from Labarriere while Loeser got out of the way.

Jaeger continued for 3,100 following the 3♥K♥5♦ flop. Labarriere opted to flat.

Action checked through the K♦ turn to the A♥ river at which point Jaeger checked once more. Labarriere bet 5,200, sending his opponent deep into the tank. After thinking for quite some time, Jaeger committed calling chips but mucked once Labarriere turned over A♦9♦.
