Andrews Suffers Brutal Beat on $5K Freezeout Bubble; Hellmuth Deep in $600 Deepstack



Day 7 of the 2023 World Series of Poker is in full swing inside Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.

There have already been some highs and lows for the players competing. Dan Shak snagged the last $100,000 bounty prize in the Event #3: $1,000 Mystery Millions while 2022 Global Poker Index (GPI) female player of the year Cherish Andrews suffered a brutal bad beat to burst the money bubble in Event #12: $5,000 No-Limit Hold’em Freezeout.

Phil Hellmuth also has the chance to get his 17th WSOP bracelet, as he is one of the final 55 players in Event #11: $600 No-Limit Hold’em Deepstack.

Andrews Falls to Runner-Runner to Burst Money Bubble

Day 2 of the $5K Freezeout is underway and in the money. Just 148 of the 735 entries made it to the tournament’s second day, with the top 111 players finishing inside the paid places. Play began at 1 p.m. local time, and by 3 p.m., they were on the stone bubble.

Bubble play in high buy-in events can often take an age, but it took just one hand for it to burst this time around. And the aforementioned Andrews was the unfortunate player to leave the event empty-handed and saw herself head to the rail after an unfortunate runout despite being the huge favorite.

In the hand, Shiva Dudani raised from under the gun and the action folded around to Andrews in the big blind, who went all in for her last 109,000. Dudani quickly called, and their hands were revealed.

Cherish Andrews: QQ
Shiva Dudani: 55

Andrews was well ahead with her pocket queens and seemed certain to scoop in a double-up following the 348 flop. The 2 turn then gave Dudani an open-ended straight draw, drawing gasps from the players. The 6 completed the board and Dudani’s straight to KO Andrews and burst the money bubble.

The remaining field is now guaranteed a minimum payout of $8,011.

Will Hellmuth Get Bracelet #17?

One player experiencing some good fortune today is Poker Hall of Famer and all-time bracelet record holder Phil Hellmuth. The ‘Poker Brat’ is in the midst of a deep run in Event #11: $600 No-Limit Hold’em Deepstack which has just 53 players remaining.

Hellmuth started the day with 665,000 and now has a stack north of 2 million as the tournament enters its final stages. A winner will be crowned today, and if Hellmuth ends up going all the way, it will be his ninth bracelet No-Limit Hold’em bracelet. He came close to capturing that in 2022 but was denied by David Jackson in last year’s $3K Freezeout.
