Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Long Tran raised to 250,000 from under the gun. Anatoly Zlotnikov in the small blind called, then check-called after Tran continued for 150,000 on the J♠10♦A♦ flop.

The dealer revealed the Q♣ turn, and Zlotnikov looked over his sunglasses to analyze the board before moving all in for approximately 800,000. Tran quickly folded.

Anatoly Zlotnikov opened to 300,000 preflop and action folded to Alfred Karlsson who three-bet to 1,000,000, which Zlotnikov called.

On the flop 4♦10♦7♥, Karlsson led for pot, which would put Zlotnikov all in, sending him into the tank.

After close to a minute, Zlotnikov shook his head and tossed in his cards to award his Swedish adversary the pot.

Joseph Sanders opened under the gun to 275,000 and was called by Anatoly Zlotnikov on the button, but then Long Tran three-bet from the big blind to 1,150,000.

This produced a hasty fold from Joseph and although it took a bit longer, it also resulted in a muck from Zlotnikov to win Tran the pot.

Long Tran raised to 250,000 from the hijack and was called by Anatoly Zlotnikov who defended from the big blind.

Tran took this opportunity to bet 875,000 and make Zlotnikov fold.

After checking through the flop Q♦4♣2♣, Long Tran led for 450,000 on the turn 3♠ and was called by his heads-up opponent, Anatoly Zlotnikov.

After two long days of competition, only six players remain in Event #90: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed at the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP). Out of a field of 1,306 entrants, they will come back today at noon local time to try to win a WSOP gold bracelet and the first-place prize of $269,530.

Among those six players, Long Tran has the best chance of victory as he bagged the chip lead after Day 2 with 9,990,000. A big pot he won when eight players remained allowed him to be back on Day 3 with almost exactly 100 big blinds. He is followed by Sweden's Alfred Karlsson (7,615,000), while Mike Leah is third in chips with 5,960,000.

Joseph Sanders (4,500,000), Dustin Nelson (2,540,000) and Anatoliy Zlotnikov (2,105,000) are also still in the race to win, despite having shortest stacks.
