The World Series of Poker is, regrettably, coming to an end soon, as they have already began their final main events. It has been an amazing tournament so far, and all that is left the three No Limit Hold’em events. Each of these events has a $10,000 buy-in, with many players that are knocked out of A and B, tend to flock to the Event C to try their luck once again. There is a huge reason for this; actually there are 10 million good reasons for trying again, not to mention the bracelet and fame.
Looking back throughout the events, I can honestly say that a few events, as well as players left an impression on me.
Event #2: Mixed Max No Limit Hold’em
I have always enjoyed how Vanessa Selbst played poker, and she certainly did prove that she is indeed a pro. Out of the 131 entries, she managed to make it to the final table, where she beat Jason Mo during a face-off and came out the winner; adding another WSOP bracelet, totaling 3 so far.
During these three events, one of my favorite poker players managed to get 1 bracelet win, and come in second place in the other two. Brandon Shack-Harris has certainly made his name, fame, and fortune during this year’s WSOP. He won Event #3, came in second in the other two, as well as coming in third during Event #43; he also played in another two events. All of that gave him a total of $1,416,110 in winnings so far. I certainly hope he is playing the main events, as I would like to see him take the bracelet of the most prestigious event in the WSOP.
It is always great to watch how a pro can simply take over and dominate, and that is what Phil Ivey did during this event. This marks a historic moment for Ivey, as he won his 10th bracelet, which is fitting seeing as how the WSOP is celebrating its 10th year at the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino.
