Two final tables tonight. The $335 Badugi attracted 36 players with four places being paid.Trying not to be the bubble are:
Will Skip Peregud 3rd $1.5k
Eddie Ng
Dan Halpern 4th $1k
Kamer Bicakei 1st $5k
Lawrence Berg
Kendall Fukumoto 2nd $2.6k
The $545 $150k guarantee players returned at 4pm and FT play started at 8pm. This final was in the capable hands of Joanne while Greg tried to explain Badugi to the dealers.The final eight in the NLHE are:
Haik Kyurumyan 4th $9k
Eric Herschler 7th $4k
Mitch Schock 2nd $24k
Tony Phan 5th $7k
Tom Lee 3rd $12k
Terry Foster 6th $5.5k
Hoang Cuu 8th $3.3k
Andre Artis 1st $50k
I could recognize only Eric Herschler and Cuu Hoang but after checking thehendonmobdb the standard is creeping up a notch.Mich Schock cashed five times at this years WSOP and won a Venetian PLO tournie.
Thursday’s horse was won by mixed game specialist Terry Crowe.The San Luis O resident picked up a paycheck of $9.9k for his $335 buy in. Other notables at the FT Shirley Rosario 9th and Chris Grigorian 7th.
I noticed today MGM’s office in San Gabriel has closed.The idea was to have Chinese staff book rooms for high rollers who wanted to visit Vegas.The Indian casino buses can offer a free ride to Vegas style action while returning home the same day.Writing about competition from Indian casinos Pala has organised a “Poker Open” which clashes with the Legends ME. What is strange is they are saying Mike Matusow, Adam Levy and Tom McEvoy will be playing.I guess if the money is right…

where are all the updates and Pictures? Put that pass to use Mr Hall
No results since Terry’s win on Thursday.The Bike need lessons from Mr Savage on updating via the net.
Do they know how many people in LA look for updates of these events. I have tried to tell them but who am I!! Thanks for the pics I always enjoy looking at them I am trying to get my own website up will let you know if iy happens also the FallenHeroesUSA.org site is up!
I sent Greg + Welcome Center emails asking for end of Day1’s so I could do a running blog on the event but didn’t receive a reply. The WPT will do better this weekend.
Still no real name pros apart from Young Phan,Eskimo and Vinny.Eskimo of course asks everyone for a buy in :(
How many do you think will play the ME? I will try and be there Sunday I have been trying to get a hold of Kim from the WPT but I keep getting message machine. I wonder if she still works there?
Some FT pros are in Cyprus including Chino + Grinder. An event starts in the Philippines on Monday which MAY take away Quinn Do,Nam Le + Chino.
No need for two day ones. 255???
