World Series Of Poker (WSOP)

Best Of The Brit Bloggers So Far
Robert "Animal" Price (Event 3 - $1,500 buy in o8) 4th for $73,405
Praz Bansi (Event 9 - $1,500 buy in 6 handed NLHE) 7th for $42,320
Ben Grundy (Event 10 - $2,500 PL HE/O) 3rd for $99,574


Updates for all events available via the excellent PokerNews
Have split them into events into the box on the left hand side.
Each event lists the winner or the current state of play



Other Highlights so far....

Thang Luu winning Event 3 - $1,500 buy in O8
Not the biggest field by WSOP standards (918 runners) but what makes this special is that he won the same event last year and was second in 2007 !!!!

Phil Ivey winning Event 8 - $2,500 buy in NL Lowball
Another small field (147 runners) and one of the lowest payouts a bracelet winner will get ($96,361) but its his 6th bracelet and rumours are that winning it has landed him over $3 million in side bets
