Als 41. Event der World Series of Poker (WSOP) 2012 stand wieder ein No Limit Hold’em auf dem Programm. Das ansehnliche Buy-in von $3.000 legten 1.394 Spieler auf den Tisch und so geht es insgesamt um $3.805.620. Auch Weltmeister Pius Heinz ist in Las Vegas eingetroffen und nahm bei diesem Event Platz.
Nicht nur Pius, sondern auch zahlreiche andere Bekannte der deutschsprachigen Szene waren mit am Start: Adrian Apmann, Alexander Debus, Denys Drobyna, Michael Eiler, Waldemar Essig, Martin Finger, Philipp Gruissem, Stefan Höing, Johannes Holstege, Kilian Kramer, Igor Kurganov, Maxi Lemanski, Marco Liesy, Anton Morgenstern, Khiem Nguyen, Dominik Nitsche, Mario Puccini, Fabian Quoss, Marvin Rettenmaier, Pietro Sibione, Alexander Bös, Heinz Kamutzki, Florian Langmann, Thomas Mühlöcker, August Schlegl, Florian Schleps.
Die internationale Szene hatte natürlich ebenfalls einiges zu bieten – Martins Adeniya, Brock Parker, Jason Koon, John Racener, Annette Obrestad, Adam Junglen, Vanessa Selbst, Angel Guillen, Ivan Demidov, Martin Staszko, Andy Frankenberger, John Juanda, Jake Cody, David Williams, Isaac Haxton, Jonathan Little und viele andere mehr.
Mit 9.000 Chips Starting Stack ging es nicht ganz so heftig zur Sache, aber dennoch blieben an Tag 1 schon über 1.000 Spieler auf der Strecke. Bei Pius Heinz ging es gleich bergab, als er mehr als die Hälfte seines Stacks gegen den Flush seines Gegners verlor. Kurz gab es noch ein Comeback, aber letztlich war für Pius Heinz die Rückkehr zum Schauplatz seines Triumphs eher von kurzer Dauer. Auch Jonathan Duhamel ereilte dasselbe Weltmeister-Schicksal, ebenso mussten sich Jake Cody gegen eine Straight, Olivier Busquet, Jonathan Little, Melanie Weisner, Jennifer Harman und viele andere mehr verabschieden.
Als Chipleader wird Brock Parker geführt. Der offizielle Count steht noch aus und dieser wird in Kürze auch zeigen, wie es den anderen deutschsprachigen Spielern erging.
