Cheating allegations haven't kept Ali Imsirovic away from the 2022 World Series of Poker, but an unfortunate river card on Thursday night sent him packing in Event #50: $250,000 Super High Roller No-Limit Hold'em.
Imsirovic wasn't the only accused cheater to compete in the six-figure buy-in tournament. Jake Schindler and Bryn Kenney also came ready to compete for a shot at winning millions of dollars and a gold bracelet.
It's not a matter if, but when will Phil Ivey become just the second player ever to win that elusive 11th World Series of Poker gold bracelet. Perhaps, he's just a day away, especially if he continues to dominate Event #50: $250,000 Super High Roller No-Limit Hold'em.
Ivey's been stuck on 10 since 2014, tied for second with Johnny Chan and Doyle Brunson. He still has his work cut out for him to catch Phil Hellmuth, who holds the record with 16 WSOP titles. But it's clear now that he's as focused now to win bracelets as was in the 2000s.
After Greek player Paraskevas Tsokaridis moved 850,000 of his 1,100,000 stack into the middle under-the-gun, Jonathan Pastore called from the small blind and Tamer Alkamli called from the big blind.
On the flop, Tsokaridis moved all in after Alkamli checked. Pastore then raised to 700,000 and Alkamli folded. Cards were tabled.
Paraskevas Tsokaridis:
Jonathan Pastore:
Tsokaridis was drawing to running quads and didn't improve against the set of Pastore, eliminating Tsokaridis in fifth for $167,882.
