Day 1B of Main event kicks off
July 6, 2008
The second of the main event groups at the WSOP kicked off on Day 4th July (incidentally
also the Day of American Independence). Proceedings were kicked off by the Country and
Western Singer Andy Griggs singing the National Anthem followed by Jerry Yang
announcing the immortal ʻShuffle Up and Dealʼ, a great honour to have been bestowed
upon him as reigning champion.
The chip leader at the end of the first day was Ben Sarnoff who worked hard all day to
gather his 177,500 chips. Sarnoff has already had a successful World Series with 2
cashes under his belt. No doubt he will put everything he has got into the Main Event in
the hopes of getting hold of that huge prize.
There were a number of famous faces in amongst the crowd including former MLB pitcher
Orel Hershiser, Australian cricketer Shane Warne, and Australian boxer Jeff "The
Marrickville Mauler" Fenech. The field was also littered with well known poker aces such
as Daniel Negreanu, Erick Lindgren, Kathy Liebert, Erik Seidel, Robert Mizrachi, Andy
Black, Dewey Tomko, Humberto Brenes, and Bill Edler. It will be a gripping event as
always and we will keep our eyes glued to all the action.
