Pav Braich was flopping gold tonight. Jo Teliani had the lead for much of heads-up, but Braich started hitting flops hard late in the game. His run to the win started when he flopped quad eights against an ace for Teliani, and then he flopped the nut straight a bit later to double to the lead.
Teliani fought back with a double of her own, flopping a pair and turning two with queen-nine against the suited king-ten for Braich. Teliani was still short, however, and when she found a suited queen, her stack went in. Braich had ace-seven and flopped the ace. Teliani turned her queen, but it wasn’t enough when the river bricked.
This was Braich’s 3rd Main Event win in less than a year, after taking down the final PPT Main of 2025 and the first PPT Main of 2026, so he certainly knows how to play the Main. Teliani, for her part, has only been playing poker for 3 years, but has very quickly developed into one of the top players in the local scene, and she is currently leading the women in the Alberta Poker Index Player of the Year race.
