Rapid Day as Another WSOPE Final Table is Set
It took less than four hours of play to complete all our ten Day 2 tables of this the €3,200 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout. They were all 3-max to be fair but the action was still rapid nonetheless. The fact that it took ElkY the longest to complete his win, tells you all you need to know. He completes a stellar line-up for the fourth final table of this series.
Here's the seat draw for the final ten players:
Seat | Name | Chips | |
1 | James Dempsey | 230,000 | |
2 | Richard Toth | 231,000 | |
3 | Taylor Paur | 233,000 | |
4 | Tristan Wade | 238,000 | |
5 | Max Silver | 246,000 | |
6 | John Armbrust | 232,000 | |
7 | Emil Patel | 237,000 | |
8 | Steve O'Dwyer | 231,000 | |
9 | Michael Watson | 245,000 | |
10 | Bertrand Grospellier | 235,000 |
There were many notable names who had their high hopes dashed today. Freddy Deeb was first out when his nut straight lost out to Steve O'Dwyer's set when the latter filled up on the river. It wasn't too long before Vanessa Selbst was out in the sun too. Her pocket kings were beaten by the quad sixes of Max Silver, who then went on to beat Terrance Chan heads-up.
Chad Brown, James Mitchell, Anton Makiievskyi, Tommy Vedes, Tobias Reinkemeier and Ryan D'Angelo were all amoungst the 20 players who will have to be happy with the €6,913 they received for winning their first table. D'Angelo will feel the most aggrieved with the amount though as he had O'Dwyer all-in twice as an 80% favourite, but lost both times.
The final table is due to start at 3pm local time and all the action will be covered here on Pokernews.com and in moving pictures via wsop.com.
