Robel Andemichael moved all in button for 14,300,000, and Ilyas Muradi called from the big blind with 4h4d.

Andemichael turned over Ad6d, and needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came 10c9c8s3cQs — Andemichael flopped a gutshot straight draw, but improved no further. Muradi won the pot — and the WPT title — with his pocket fours.

Ilyas Muradi wins the 2021 WPT Lucky Hearts Poker Open, earning $620,000, which includes his $15,000 seat into the WPT Baccarat Crystal Tournament of Champions. Robel Andemichael finishes as the runner-up, earning $545,000.

Congratulations to Ilyas Muradi!
