I'm a little behind, but the WSOP marches on

Event 39 - $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em has crowned (errr braceletted) it winner David Woo. According to reports David made the final table (finishing fifth) in this same event last year. This year however he closed the deal and takes home his first WSOP bracelt and a whopping $631,656. I'd say, time well spent!

Event 40 - $2,500 2-7 Triple Draw which drew 238 entrants has come to a close with John Phan besting the field, taking home the bracelet and $151,896 for the top spot. Robert Mizrachi and David Sklansky also appeared at the final table of this event, finishing 4th and 6th respectively.

Event 41 - $1,500 Mixed Hold'em came to a close as Frank Gary bested the field of 731 entrants to take down the bracelet and the $219,508 payday. Congratulations.

Event 43 - $1,500 Pot Limit Omaha Hi/Lo is down to the final 69 and will resume today at 2:00pm PDT, where they will narrow it down to the final 9. Erik Seidel, Joe Hachem, Chris Ferguson, and Chip Jett still remain in contention for the top prize.

Sorry I missed posting yesterday, but I experienced melt down after Day 2 of the Reds Legends Baseball Camp, and had to take advantage of some much needed sleep after that and last night's All Star practice. I'll try to post up again today, to catch the world up on my goings on.
