Can anyone confirm that Chris 'Jesus' Ferguson is playing 2 events at once?

[Djinn]

Ever so slight detour off-topic, now, to say Congratulations to Dr Pauly - stanchion of the updating community, writer and clearly player too, whose Day Two return today saw him bust just now, according to Brad, to Erica Schoenberg...here he was, pictured earlier today.  Snoopy salutes you, and knows you're good for those side bets now...

Fig. 1  Cheerfully chip-twiddling as the lady to his left busts out
Fig. 2  Seriously counting his own chips with one finger

Not sure, I can definitely say that he's playing the HORSE. I wouldn't be surprised though, he can sit out the whole day and still have a good sized stack tomorrow.

I just saw him move tables in the Day Two of the $1,500 NL...so he's definitely in that one.  Don't think he's got a seat in the H.O.R.S.E. though...

[Boba Fett]

Can anyone comment on Hellmuths ability at the non-texas games?

[Djinn]

Wow, seeing as we both answered Nemesis' question in the opposite way, it looks like he must, indeed, be two-timing today.  Good luck Jesus!

Johnny Chan has lost a chunk on a 4-4-A-K-J board, his opponent scooping with a set of Aces, so I can only assume Chan had the 2-3 and a decent high hand.

Allen Kessler gets the rockets - and takes a pot of nearly 20k off Jani Sointula, after getting to the river with the board 6h7h .  I think the river was checked, with the for Kessler (pictured with something in his eye) winning the pot.
