Gestern startete mit der $50.000 Poker Players Championship eines der prestigeträchtigsten Events der World Series of Poker 2013 (WSOP). Fast alles, was Rang und Namen hatte, war anwesend. So auch Poker-Urgestein Doyle Brunson.
Die Poker Players Championship der WSOP brachte 120 Spieler an die Poker Tische. Damit geht es um $5,76 Millionen an Preisgeldern. Allerdings ist es bis dahin noch ein weiter Weg, denn bei diesem Deepstack Event sind gerade einmal eine Handvoll Spieler draußen. Ihre Chips bereits verspielt haben unter anderem Vanessa Selbst, Matt Glantz, sowie Johnny Chan.
George Danzer hat es durch den Tag geschafft, seinen Stack mit 177.700 allerdings nur geringfügig ausgebaut. Ebenfalls weiter sind Ismael Bojang und Sebastian Ruthenberg. Richtig rund lief es für Poker-Pro Jonathan Duhamel, der mit 401.300 derzeit als Führender gelistet ist.
Ebenfalls deutlich über Average liegen Jason Mercier (340.600) und Justin Smith (336.600). Zu den Shorties zählt Phil Ivey (31.800). Doyle Brunson (Foto), der in diesem Jahr die WSOP 2013 ursprünglich nicht spielen wollte, ist auch für Tag 2 qualifiziert und somit noch im Rennen um das Bracelet.
Ausschlaggebend für den Sinneswandel, waren Gerüchte, dass Brunson nicht mehr konkurrenzfähig ist. Auf Twitter kündigte der Poker Veteran direkt einige Bracelet Wetten an: „Time closing in on the 50k. I’ve got so many bets my head is spinning. These young guys evidently think I can’t compete. Total 28 bets.Not as high as it seems. Total of 800k. Seems like a lot, but bets are to cash, final table, win. If I lose (and I’m a fav to lose) I will lose between 80K-140k. But if I win, I could win up to 800k maximum. Hoping to at least cash.“
