Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Biao Ding raised to 210,000 in the cutoff, and only Christopher Vitch called in the small blind.

Both players were happy to get to a showdown as cheaply as possible, as all three streets of the A♠9♠J♦4♦10♥ board checked down.

Vitch announced he had an ace, but mucked his cards when Ding tabled A♦Q♥Q♦6♠.

The very next hand, Vitch opened to 210,000 on the button, and Ding called in the big blind.

Ding checked over to Vitch on a J♠J♥4♦ flop, and when Vitch continued for 120,000, Ding check-raised to 350,000. Ding claimed a second pot in as many hands against Vitch, as Vitch tossed his cards into the muck.

Christopher Vitch raised to 210,000 under the gun. It folded to the short-stacked Mason Vieth in the big blind, who decided to call. Vitch placed the minimum bet of 60,000 on the 7♠6♠3♠ flop, which Vieth check-called.

Vitch sized up to 115,000 on the 3♦ turn. This time, Vieth check-raised all in for 275,000. Vitch quickly called to put his opponent at risk.

Mason Vieth: K♣8♠7♣2♠ All in
Christopher Vitch: K♠10♠7♦4♦

Both players had flopped a flush, but Vitch had the higher one. The 8♥ river could not save Vieth from his demise, ending "The Milkman"'s tournament run in tenth place.

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) is set to usher in a new era for its winter flagship, WSOP Paradise, after confirming the festival will move from Atlantis Paradise Island to the luxury Baha Mar resort, also in the Bahamas.

The 2026 edition, slated to run from Tuesday, December 1 to Friday, December 18, will shuffle up and deal in a new home roughly six miles up the Bahamian coast from where Austria’s Bernhard Binder announced himself to the wider poker world, capturing the record-breaking 2025 WSOP Paradise Super Main Event just a few months ago.

In an announcement on social media platform X, the WSOP wrote, "The next chapter of WSOP Paradise is coming... Bigger. Better. Unmissable. This December, the world's fastest-growing poker event arrives at the stunning Baha Mar."

Alnoor Pujani was first to act and raised to 175,000. It folded to Erik Seidel in the big blind, who called.

Pujani continued for 175,000 on the 5♦K♠J♠ flop, only to be check-raised all in by Seidel. Pujani wasted no time in calling off his stack of 980,000.

Alnoor Pujani: A♦K♦Q♠10♠ All in
Erik Seidel: A♠5♣4♠2♣

Pujani had a big lead with his top pair and a wrap. The 7♦ turn added a flush draw to his arsenal, but Seidel hit the other nut flush on the 8♠ river to eliminate Pujani in 11th place.

Going four ways to a flop in a single raised pot, Xing He bet the pot on a 3♠10♥2♠ flop from the cutoff. When the action folded to Christopher Vitch in the big blind, he moved all in, covering He's total stack of around 680,000, and He called.

Xing He: A♦Q♥J♠10♦ All in
Christopher Vitch: 10♠7♣6♠5♠

Vitch was behind but had a host of outs to take the lead. Those outs only increased on the 8♥ turn, and He was not able to withstand the pressure from the deck, as the 4♠ river improved Vitch to a straight flush, and sent He to the rail.
