2010 World Series of Poker
Event #43: $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship
Ian Gordon Wins Event #43: $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship ($611,666)
At the start of the day when we returned with 23 of the world's best mixed game players, we admit that Ian Gordon wasn't our first choice when we were predicting a winner. We didn't know a lot about this young man, but as the day developed he quietly amassed chips and built a confidence that ultimately was tough for his opponents to stop.
There were several key hands that went his way, with the backdoor flush against Matt Glantz a pivotal moment that gave him the momentum and the chip lead that he carried all the way to a memorable victory. To overcome this final table was a huge achievement, but to do so with such efficiency was impressive, especially for those in media row who were making breakfast plans. Instead, we can thankfully grab a little shut-eye.
With virtually no previous tournament record, Gordon has now added a massive $611,666 to his bankroll and a beautiful gold bracelet to his wrist.

Event #44: $2,500 Mixed Hold'em
Day 2 completed
A rare occurrence at the WSOP this summer -- we've made it all of the way down to nine players in two days, and are set for an exciting final table tomorrow for Event #44, the $2,500 Mixed Hold'em (Limit/No-Limit) event.
On Day 1 we quickly moved from a starting field of 507 down to just 69 returners today, and that torrid pace continued for most of Day 2. We quickly made the cash today, losing Grant Hinkle, Shannon Shorr and 13 others within just a couple of hours.
Soon after that the rapid parade of players to the cashier's cage began, among them Eric Froehlich, Jeff Shulman, Erica Schoenberg, Matt Matros, Alexandre Gomes, and Andreas Hoivold. Jim Collopy and Matt Stout both competed for the chip lead for a while, but both went out shy of the top 20. Eli Elezra also went out in 23rd.
Finally, following Jonathan Tamayo's elimination in 12th place, things slowed down a bit, and it would take close to two-and-a-half hours for the next elimination -- Steven Kelly -- in 11th. And it was only a short while later that Alfonso Amendola would exit in 10th and our final table was set.
Jarred Solomon and Gavin Smith return tomorrow in a virtual tie for the chip lead, with Danny Hannawa and Michael Michnik close behind.

Event #46: $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-low Split-8 or Better
Day 1 completed
Eight levels up, eight levels down. Triple zero on the clock at the end of Level 8 means that we're done for Day 1 of Event 46, $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo.
It was a sedate day in the Blue Section of the Amazon Room. 284 players were about as quiet as players playing a split-pot game can be. The bust-outs were delayed somewhat until after the first break, thanks largely to the red "rebuy" lammers that each player was given at the start of the tournament.
But the bust-outs did come. Double-bracelet winner Frank Kassela was among the first out. He was soon followed by the likes of Daniel Negreanu, Andy Bloch, Antony Lellouche, Kevin MacPhee, Sorel Mizzi, Jason Mercier and many, many more.
When the chip bags came out, there were several players that were all vying for the chip lead. We think the biggest stack bagged up belongs to Steve Chanthabouasy, with 88,000. He's followed by Sergey Altbregin (85,000), Ryan Karp (76,200) and Francis Lincoln (75,700). But given the size of the pots that some tables were playing, we wouldn't be surprised if someone else grabed the chip lead on the very last hand of the night.
The Big Clock shows 130 players left. Those players will return at 3pm tomorrow to play down to a final table.

2010 World Series of Poker
Event #44: $2,500 Mixed Hold'em
Congratulations to Gavin Smith, Event #44 Champion ($268,238)!
A long-standing member of the "best-without-a-bracelet" club, Gavin Smith tonight leaves that club to join another one -- those who have crowned their poker careers with WSOP gold!
This tournament attracted an especially tough field of 507 entrants, and the final table proved tough as well, all of the way down to a lengthy heads-up match between Smith and Danny Hannawa. Despite ballooning limits, the pair battled for two hours through the alternating limit and no-limit rounds before Smith finally took the last of Hannawa's chips.
There's a celebratory mood here at the main feature stage, as Smith's many supporters -- among them Jeff Madsen, Jon Friedberg, Erick Lindgren, Chau Giang, Joe Sebok, Layne Flack, and Court Harrington -- have gathered to congratulate their friend and fellow competitor.
"It feels good," he said afterwards, employing an almost uncharacteristic seeming understatement. Smith has always maintained he didn't need the bracelet to validate his career, but he clearly recognizes this as a moment worth noting. When asked if he planned to party it up tonight, he said perhaps, but not too much -- there's another tournament to be played tomorrow!
Congratulations to Gavin Smith, Event #44 Champion!

Event #47: $1,000 No-Limit Hold’em
Day 1A of Event #47 $1,000 No Limit Hold'em has come to an end. Play was halted a bit early because of the rapid pace of eliminations. Of the 1,759 players that started the day, approximately 270 players remain and will join the survivors of Day 1B on Monday for Day 2 of the tournament.
Hundreds of players, both amateur and professionals, entered the day with hopes of winning a WSOP gold bracelet. Among those who fell along the way were Chau Giang, Michael Mizrachi, Tom Dwan, Jerry Yang, Chris Ferguson, Billy Baxter, Dennis Phillips and Bernard Lee.
However, there were a few big names who managed to make it to Day 2. They include Antonio Esfandiari, Matt Glantz, Lars Bonding, André Akkari, and Scott Montgomery, who is amazingly looking for back-to-back wins in the $1,000 no limit hold'em events. Unfortunately for them, all of these players trail Justin Brickner, who appears to be our Day 1A chip leader with a little over 86,000.
A new field of players will begin fresh tomorrow for Day 1B of the tournament
Top Chip Counts
1 Justin Brickner 86,000
2 Antonio Esfandiari 35,000
3 Cody Slaughbaugh 35,000
4 Aaron Gustavson 32,000
5 Jeff Sarwer 31,000
6 Scott Montgomery 30,000

Day 2 Concludes
As expected, Day 2 was a turbulent day which saw stacks fluctuate at an immeasurable pace, even the chip lead continually changing hands. As the final whistle blew, however, it was Sam Trickett who stood tallest, his stack of 922,000 sending him into the final day with the chip lead and the opportunity to become the UK's sixth bracelet winner.
But snapping at his heels like an alligator with toothache will be an array of tough competitors, the likes of Larry Wilder (916,000), Stephen Chidwick (783,000) and Kevin Odell (768,000) all eying up that shiny, gold bracelet. And not too far behind them is recent bracelet winner Dutch Boyd, the former 'Crew' member in great shape with 619,000.
But with 36 Trojans still remaining, the battle will be tough, and the journey long as we look to whittle the remaining field down to one triumphant solider

Event #47: $1,000 No-Limit Hold’em
Day 1b completed
Day 1B of Event #47 $1,000 No Limit Hold'em has come to an end. Play was halted at the same spot as Day 1A (45 minutes into Level 9) and the surviving players from both days, approximately 465, will return tomorrow for Day 2. Today saw 1,369 entrants, which combined with the 1,759 players from Day 1A, to create a total field of 3,128. Of that, 324 players will make the money and compete for their share of a $2,815,200 prizepool.
A number of big names started the day with the intention of winning a WSOP gold bracelet. Among those eliminated were Phil Ivey, Jonathan Little, Jennifer Tilly, Joe Sebok, Jason Mercier, Beth Shak and Humberto Brenes. On the other hand, Mike Beasley, Mickey Appleman, Faraz Jaka, David Levi, Matt Hawrilenko and Lyle Berman managed to survive the day. They will join the likes of Antonio Esfandiari, Matt Glantz, Lars Bonding, André Akkari, and Scott Montgomery, all of whom survived Day 1A, for the start of Day 2 tomorrow as they make their way toward the money.
Who will continue to find success in Day 2 and position themselves for a shot at the $485,791 first place prize? Will it be Day 1A chip leader, Chernykh Moscow, who finished with 75,150; Olivier Busquet, who ended Day 2 with 60,500; or Chris Moneymaker, the 2003 Main Event Champ?

Day 1 Wraps, 22 Remain
The first four levels of the WSOP Tournament of Champions resulted in only five eliminations. John Juanda was the first to fall when he ran into Jennifer Harman's set of jacks and he was followed out the door by Barry Shulman, Greg Raymer, Sam Farha, and eight-time bracelet winner Phil Ivey, who became short-stacked early, ran it back up to 33,000 and busted out a short time later.
Erik Seidel (72,075), Johnny Chan (71,325) and Mike Matusow (70,575) more than doubled their starting stacks today and finished the day 1-2-3 atop the leaderboard. Needing to do a bit of work and catch a few cards are Annie Duke (12,500), Joe Cada (12,125) and Doyle Brunson (10,200).
