WSOP Main Event continues

July 14, 2008

The combined field of players at the WSOP main event was on day 3 down to a much more manageable 1,307 players with payouts beginning at 666th place onwards. It was a day that the cash was reached however after bubble boy Steve Chung went out in 667th place.

Day 4 of the event had only 474 players remaining. Now deep into the money and with the end in site, things were really hotting up. The short stacks were either going out or doubling up and the competition was fierce. Jeremy Joseph was the chip leader by the end of the day with over 2 million chips. The field was whittled down to 189 players as day 5 began. Joseph although ending the day in 9th place overall lost his place of chip leader to Mark Ketteringham.

Phil Hellmuth is the last remaining WSOP champion in the event but because of a penalty for berating Cristian Dragomir he is being forced to sit out of the first orbit of day 6. Day 5 players are guaranteed a $38,600 payout, and there will be 79 players going through. With Ketteringham in such a strong position, no doubt he will be desperate to get out there and play.
