Event 27 No-Limit Hold'em $1,500 3-Day Event No Rebuy/Add-ons Prizepool: $3,685,500 Entries: 2,706 Noch 17 Spieler im Feld

Chipcount Vitaly Lunkin 912,000 Kenneth Terrell 888,000 Barry Schultz 858,000 Philip Yeh 819,000 Jordan Smith 789,000 Bobby Firestone 544,000 Carl Jerome 495,000 Trevor Donaldson 470,000 Jeffrey Brown 337,000 Richard Alm 322,000 Deb Blair 310,000 Robert Brown 300,000 Tony Gargano 284,000 Brett Kimes 208,000 Bashar Ramahi 204,000 Frank Simpson 199,000

Event 28 Pot-Limit Omaha W/Rebuys $5,000 3-Day Event Rebuy/Add-on Event Prizepool: $3,085,930 Entries: 152 Rebuys & Add-ons: 483

Durch die vielen Rebuys haben allein 152 gemeldete Spieler die 3-Millionen-Grenze an Preisgeld gesprengt Trotz vieler Beleidigungen an Rast und Negreanu und zwischenzeitlich dem 2. Platz ist der (12.) Stern von Ill-Phil am sinken. Als letzter am Finaltisch kämpft er nicht nur mit seinen Nerven, sondern vor allem gegen die steigenden Blinds.



Aber immerhin erging es ihm besser als Chris (Jesus) Ferguson, der als 11. den Final- Table und somit die Chance auf sein 6. Bracelet begraben musste. Immerhin wurde ihm das Ausscheiden mit $70'000 versüsst. Aber das Geld zählt für solche Stars nur noch nebenbei. Es ist der Ruhm des Sieges, der wichtig ist und dafür riskieren Sie alles.

So sieht heute der Finaltisch zur Zeit aus: Phil "OMGClayAiken" Galfond 1,393,000 Brian "tsarrast" Rast 1,176,000 David Benyamine 1,041,000 John Juanda 694,000 Johnny Chan 624,000 Kirill Gerasimov 558,000 Daniel Negreanu 460,000 Adam Hourani 300,000 Phil Hellmuth 119,000

World Series of Poker Daily Summary for June 10th, 2008

Haley Hintze Pokernews.com And then there were three… three bracelets awarded in a single day's play at the Rio.

The 2008 World Series of Poker on Tuesday showcased the final tables of three different events, spanning the spectrum of the game, while the one event that played down toward a final table to be held today will offer perhaps the most star-packed finale of this year's Series to date.

First up was Event #15, the $1,000 Ladies No-Limit World Championship, where Svetlana Gromenkova came to the final table with the lead and made that lead stand up, winning the specially-designed Ladies Corum bracelet and $244,702. Gromenkova' final opponent was Anh Le, who finished second in this same event to Jennifer Tilly three years ago. Le's repeat runner-up showing was worth $144,567.

Event #17, $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout, had pared a capped field of 1,000 entrants down to ten in two marathon rounds on Monday, then saw those ten finalists return on Tuesday to do battle again. The winner here was Jason Young, whose trifecta of wins in the shootout's three rounds brought bracelet gold and $335,565. Mike Schwartz finished in second for $209,527, while John Strzemp III (son of John Strzemp Jr., who finished as the runner-up to Stuey Ungar in Ungar's celebrated third and final Main Event win) finished third for $129,675.

Event #16's bracelet was the last of the day's three to be determined. The final in the $2,000 Limit Omaha Hi/Lo tourney was destined to take a while to resolve, since 18 players needed to be whittled down to one. Around 3am this morning that one was finally determined and it was 25-year-old Andrew Brown, who finished off one of poker's giants, Ted Forrest, for the win. Brown collected $226,483 and his first bracelet gold, while Forrest settled for a second-place payday of $143,420.

The big audience for today's action will certainly be attentive to the final in Event #18, $5,000 No Limit 2-7 Draw w/ Rebuys, which boasts an outstanding seven-player final. Top spot (and a sizable lead) is held here by Erick Lindgren, the star whose impressive poker resume finally saw its first WSOP bracelet added; he now has the inside track on collecting his second within a span of days. Still, despite his early run at this year's WSOP, it'll be no easy task, as the other six finalists are Barry Greenstein, Mike Matusow, Jeffrey Lisandro, David Benyamine, Tony G and Tom Schneider. This one gets underway as this story goes live on the Internet.

Two more events began action on Tuesday and in one of them, it was clear that Ladies Day covered more than just the glittery Event #15. Event #19, $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha, saw a 758-player chopped all the way down to 46 players, well inside the money bubble, with the top position overnight held by Vanessa Selbst. Selbst's 203,600 in chips was more than 70,000 ahead of second place Anthony Phillips, with Carter Gill and Eugene Todd in the next closest spots. A short Day 2 session for this event is likely, with the field likely to be reduced to its final nine within a few hours.

The other event beginning play on Tuesday was Event #20, $2,000 Limit Hold'em, which saw its field thinned from 480 to 125 in the first eight levels of play. The overnight leader here is Daniel Makowski, though another, somewhat more famous Daniel -- Negreanu - - finished the event's opening session in fourth. Phil Hellmuth escaped short-stack status in this one as well, with a decent chance of extending his all-time career mark for WSOP cashes tomorrow as this one plays all the way down to its final nine.

Wednesday starts at the WSOP include Event #21, $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em, which began at noon with a slew of big names taking seats. 731 of poker's best began play. At 5pm this afternoon Event #22, $3,000 H.O.R.S.E., begins, which is sure to draw many late entries from stars bounced early from Event #21 proceedings.

Über World Series of Poker (WSOP):

Die World Series of Poker, oder kurz WSOP, ist eine Reihe von Pokerturnieren, die jedes Jahr in Las Vegas ausgetragen werden.

Die World Series of Poker finden jährlich im Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas statt.

Die World Series of Poker ist die grösste und prestigeträchtigste Pokerveranstaltung der Welt. Mit einer umfassenden Liste von Turnieren in allen wichtigen Pokervarianten ist die WSOP das am längsten laufende Pokerturnier der Welt und geht auf das Jahr 1970 zurück.

Darüber hinaus hat die WSOP bahnbrechende Allianzen in den Bereichen Rundfunk, digitale Medien und Unternehmenssponsoring gebildet und die Marke mit der Einführung der WSOP Europe im Jahr 2007 und der WSOP Asia-Pacific im Jahr 2013 sowie der WSOP International Circuit Series im Jahr 2015 erfolgreich international ausgebaut.

Ursprünglich wurden die Tourniere in Las Vegas Downtown im Binion's Horseshoe Casino ausgetragen. Im Jahre 2005 kaufte Caesars den Brand WSOP. Seit diesem Datum werden die Pokermeisterschaften im Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino durchgeführt.
