Final Table Action

By the time the final day began, the field of 1,224 had been whittled down to the final 16 players. Jack Hardcastle was one of the early eliminations on Day 3 and was followed out of the door by others. The departure of Christopher Zenonos set up the final table, where the top nine players had locked up $35,847.

Noman Mizra was the first player to leave the official final table after his king-seven could not leapfrog the ace-seven held by Andreas Vasiliou in an all-in preflop encounter. Vasiliou then headed to the payout desk next. He had ace-nine and flopped top pair on a nine-high board. He ended up getting his stack in against Ye, who had pocket kings. There would be no help on the runout, and he finished in eighth place.

Ye then secured his second final table bust out after his jack-ten rivered a pair to win the race against the ace-nine of Slav Rypinski. Nearly an hour later, Mostofa Haidary put the pressure on the short-stacked Gary Lin in a blind versus blind battle. Haidary moved all in with nine-three, and Lin called off his stack with ace-deuce. The former would go on to make two pair and send Lin to the rail.

The last woman standing was Anita Savage, and her deep run came to end shortly after Lin was eliminated. Savage put in her last big blind and was called by Ye and Josh Forster. Ye folded out Forster on the q♦️

Ye then claimed Foster’s stack after ripping his monster stack from the small blind with ten-nine. While playing on his birthday, Foster called for his tournament life with king-deuce. However, any birthday wishes of a WPT Prime title evaporated after Ye flopped a queen-high straight.

Ben Richardson then made it heads-up play after his ace-seven held against Haidary’s king-queen after another all-in preflop situation.

Ye had a slender chip lead over Richardson but soon began to pull away. The eventual winner at one stage had a 14-1 chip lead, but Richardson found several double-ups to stay in contention.

On the final hand of the night, Ye ended things when his queen-deuce turned top pair against Richardson’s ace-five. The latter was awarded $238,978 as his runners-up prize to take his all-time live tournament earnings to USD $922,596.
