WSOP Europe Main Event Day 3 Begins
Sep 29, '09
In the next half an hour, 92 players will take to the felt to battle out day 3 of the World Series of Poker main event.
Only 36 will get paid so we are very likely to have a fight on our hands.
Especially considering the players remaining – Card Player’s own CEO Barry Shulman (111,200), John Tabatabai (160,100), Ram Vaswani (202,500), Yevgeniy Timoshenko (192,100), Antonio Esfandiari (173,300), Jani Vilmunen (65,500), Dave “Devilfish†Ulliot (174,000), Liz Lieu (184,400), and footballer Teddy Sheringham (74,800) are just some of the talent preparing to continue their road to success.
November niner James Akenhead is doing very well with 178,000, and former champions Annette Obrestad (90,500) and John Juanda (38,900) are also hanging in there.
Some of those who dropped before the end of day 2 hurdle were Ashton Griffin, Howard Lederer, Erik Seidel, Phil Hellmuth, David Williams, Mike Matusow, Daniel Alaei, Barry Greenstein, Mike Matusow, Shaun Deeb, Michael Tureniec, and Alex Kravchenko.
