WSOP Day 9

I think I'll start with a great blog post from Jesse May on the Brits in Vegas this summer. Great blog overall actually, reccomended by tons of people on Twitter today, well worth a read.

On the subject of Brits (it's going to be a theme as long as we keep winning/going deep) Richard Ashby managed a 4th place finish in Event #11: $10,000 Omaha High-Low Championship - read about his finish over at Black Belt.

Just when I was starting to feel bad about not playing the WSOP this year I saw this:

'0-10 at Wsop so far. Played 60k in tournaments!' (@TheGrinder44 - Michael Mizrachi)

When you're not playing it's a horrible feeling, but ever so slightly worse is being 60k down after 10 tournies. You start off by planning two or three braceletts, then maybe just the one would do, then you think getting even would actaully be pretty cool, then just a cash before you go home is all you're asking for...

Two PokerStars Pro's are in the hunt for a bracelet today. I can't help but feel sorry for Terrence Chan if his WSOP house secures another bracelet that doesn't belong to him.

Struggling to keep up with the action this year - might be more to come later!
