FINAL MAIN EVENT TABLE SET AT WSOPE
2 October 2009
But Texas Dolly knocked out of tournament
Doyle 'Texas Dolly' Brunson has missed out on his
eleventh WSOP bracelet in the 2009 World Series of Poker
Europe, bundled out in seventeenth place after clashing
with Daniel Negreanu and Brit player James Akenhead.
The exit of the popular veteran will disappoint
many, but there has been a wealth of poker talent on
display as the field of 334 narrowed over two days to
first 36 players (see previous InfoPowa report) and now
the final 9.
Facing off on the final table with
Jason Mercier holding a substantial chip advantage are:
Seat 1: Barry Shulman - 1,090,000 Seat 2: Jason
Mercier - 3,198,000 Seat 3: Praz Bansi - 1,160,000
Seat 4: Markus Ristola - 784,000 Seat 5: Chris Bjorin
- 518,000 Seat 6: James Akenhead - 1,398,000 Seat
7: Daniel Negreanu - 438,000 Seat 8: Antoine Saout -
701,000 Seat 9: Matt Hawrilenko - 674,000
Hawrilenko, who dominated much of the earlier action in
the main event, has slipped down the pecking order to
seventh place in a final table that includes two
finalists in this years Las Vegas WSOP still to be
played in November - James Akenhead and Antoine Saout.
Another notable finalist in Europe is Barry Shulman,
owner of Card Player Media and father of another, and
more controversial Vegas WSOP finalist this year, Jeff
Shulman.
Joining Doyle Brunson at the rail before
the final table was decided, but still in the money
bubble, was World Poker Tour Cyprus winner Thomas Bichon,
Tony Cousineau, Eric Liu, Ivan Demidov, Vitaly
Timoshenko and Antonio Esfandiari.
