Down to 82
Jun 26, '07
The field in this year's Seniors event has narrowed down to 82 players and the pace of play has picked up dramatically. The remaining players are not hesitating to shove all their chips in the middle and play large pot poker. Concurrently, this tournament has also become the loudest and most emotional. Some players are spewing profanitly laced tantrums and causing scenes that are attracting fans over to the rail.
Tom McCormick was all in before the flop up in a massive sized pot against one of the chip leaders, David Icke. McCormick was all in with pocket kings up against Icke's pocket queens. McCormick had a chance to become the chip leader if his kings held up and was up out of his seat in anticipation. The dealer peeled of a queen on the flop and McCormick yelled out as loud as he could. "That's Bull****!" screamed McCormick. The turn and river bricked out and Icke's queens cracked McCormick's kings. McCormick stormed out of the tournament area muttering obscenities.
Mickey Wernick hit the rail when his 9-9 could not take down two callers with A-Q and A-K on a board with an Ace a King and a Queen.
