Bruno Sanzoni started the action with a raise to 1,600, and Artem Kotkovskyi called from the button. Hadi Khordbin, in the small blind, decided to shove all in. The big blind, Khalil Cumsille, asked for a count, which the dealer confirmed as 21,200. Cumsille, holding 19,500, went all in as well, prompting folds from Sanzoni and Kotkovskyi, setting up a showdown.

Khalil Cumsille: K♥K♣ All in
Hadi Khordbin: 10♣9♣

Khordbin needed help from the board, but it ran out K♦8♠3♣5♠A♦, giving Cumsille a set of kings and allowing him to double up.

PokerStars listened to feedback from female poker players on how to draw women to the game, and now the poker site is responding.

The upcoming PokerStars North American Poker Tour (NAPT) Las Vegas festival will feature a $330 buy-in Women's Event on Nov. 5. Notably, the event has a $30,000 guaranteed prize pool attached.

Last year's NAPT Women's Event had a $360 price tag and drew 94 entrants for a prize pool of $28,200. That means PokerStars is expecting this year's event to be an even greater success.

The Women's Event will get underway at 12:30 p.m. local time on Nov. 5 and allows for unlimited reentry. The event will feature 30-minute levels and will see players starting with stacks of 30,000.

Francesco Macri opened to 1,700 first to act and was called by Anatoly Korochenskiy in the hijack, Daniil Shalaev in the cutoff, Viet Van Vo on the button, and Anton Markov in the big blind for a five-way pot.

The flop came 10♣10♦10♠ and it was checked around to Vo, who bet 1,700. Macri called and everyone else got out of the way.

Macri, check-called a 2,700 from Vo on the 5♣ turn and checked a final time after the 3♣ completed the board.

Vo wasn't done, however, and fired 11,200 into the middle. Macri wasn't a believer and stuck in a call and Vo could only turn over K♠6♠.

Macri revealed A♣J♠ for just an ace and collected the large pot.

Dori Yacoub raised to 1,200 from the hijack and was three-bet to 5,100 by Tansel Turgut on the button. Action then folded to Mateusz Sikora, who paused before announcing he was all-in for approximately 44,000 total. Yacoub quickly folded, but Turgut called after verifying the amount to put himself at risk for his last 36,000.

Tansel Turgut: A♣K♥ All in
Mateusz Andrezej Sikora: 10♠10♦

It was a fair fight, but the 5♠3♣Q♥3♦3♥ runout kept Sikora ahead with his pair of tens and Turgut was sent to the rail.
