Unfortunately someone has to depart in 8th place, and last year it was Matt Jarvis, who busted at the hands of Michael Mizrachi. Many of the November Niners, including the winners, don't earn much respect for thier main even runs but I think we'll see a newfound appreciation for Jarvis today as he took down Event #40: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em / Six Handed for his first WSOP bracelet.
The $808k from this event is a huge score for the WSOP outside of the Main Event and when added to the $1,045,743 he took down for his 8th place finish in 2010 other cashes he's up over $2m in live tournament earnings. Canada also notches up another bracelet, bringing the 2011 WSOP total to 5...
It's no Main Event win, but it must be nice to come back the year after such a deep run and win a bracelet.
