Tournament: World Series of Poker update
Posted by admin
Poker pro Brandon Cantu won the US$1,500 buy-in Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or better event to earn the second bracelet of his young career. He topped veteran pro Lee Watkinson heads-up and took home the top prize of US$228,867. Cantu won his first bracelet in the 2006 US$1,500 No-Limit Hold’em event, his first career WSOP cash. Veteran player Phil “Poker Brat Hellmuth” also cashed in the Omaha 8 tourney to extend his record of WSOP cashes to 73.
The final table is set for the US$50,000 buy-in World Championship H.O.R.S.E. event. WSOP money leader Vitaly Lunkin looks to take down his second big-money buy-in event after winning the US$40,000 40th anniversary event earlier this month. Finnish pro Ville Wahlbeck also looks to get back into the Player of the Year race with a win in this event. Other notable pros at this final table include Erik Seidel, Chau Giang and former Main Event champion Huck Seed.
In one surprising bit of news, Jeffrey Lisandro is actually not in contention for another Seven Card Stud bracelet. American Chad Brown has made the final two tables at the US$1,500 buy-in Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better event. Brown has twenty-six WSOP cashes in his career but has yet to win a bracelet. His best finishes in Seven Card Stud events have been two second-place finishes. Other players at the final two tables include veteran pro Vince Burgio and former tournament director Matt Savage.
The US$10,000 buy-in World Championship No-Limit Hold’em Main Event starts Friday, July 3. Day 1 play will run from July 3 to July 6, then Day 2 play will continue on July 7 and 8. The entire field will come together July 10 and play down to the final table July 15. The “November Nine” will come back to play the final table on November 7 and the champion will be crowned on November 10.
