Johnny Chan Wins PSIT 3 Elimination Match NineCard Player CEO Jeff Shulman Leads Them All |
|
The Poker Superstars Invitational Tournament 3 chugged into its ninth week Sunday and Johnny Chan would up with all the chips for the first time this series. He added 10 points to the five he brought into the match. With two matches to go, he's in great shape to make the cut to the sweet sixteen.
Card Player CEO Jeff Shulman has had a great start to the PSIT 3. He added a second-place finish to the points he earned for a first and a third, giving him 22 points and sole possession of the top of the leaderboard. Even if he stumbles badly at his last two tables, 22 points should be good enough to get him into the next round.
But don't expect Shulman -- or the rest of the players on top of the leaderboard -- to let up in the last two rounds. The more points they accumulate, the more chips they start with in the second round.
Phil Hellmuth added another five points to his total, giving him a healthy 19 so far. Jennifer Harman added another three for a fourth-place finish. She has 11 points after three matches.
Chris Moneymaker followed a first-place finish by finishing fifth in his third match. This is his second fifth-place finish this season and he now has 12 points. And Mike Sexton was the player who walked away with no points for being the first one to go. With two matches left, he has 11 points.
PSIT 3 is shown on FSN at 8 p.m. local times and is repeated throughout the week. Check local listings for show times. To view CardPlayer.com's complete coverage of the series, click here.
