Vamplew 3 handed and chip leader in 1500

I've heard the rail are giving it a full 98%

No love for Vamplew among the Brits? Cliffs?

[outragous76]

Bloke shoves 20bb into Vamplew who has AA

Q9 vs AA

9T9 was nice for him

Don't know if the lack of Vamplew love is about the 2% or if he just generally keeps himself to himself, but if it is the money, then anything he has made can not be worth the lack of rail at this point

[titaniumbean]

maybe it's just running joke above expectation over a small sample then being douschey enough to charge vig. either way would be great to get a massive anti rail going.

Vamplew Leads Final 3
 

David Vamplew

The expected final day of Event #53: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em has come to an end!

What was expected to finish at some point on this day three, the final table has seen players swap chips back-and-forth on numerous occasions even after a quick start saw several early bustouts. However after 174 final table hands and ten levels of play, the dust has settled with just three players remaining.

Seat   Player   Chip Count
2   David Vamplew   5,345,000
5   Arttu Raekorpi   2,055,000
9   Brett Shaffer   5,285,000

Scottish player David Vamplew is the chip leader, but if it wasn't for having his aces cracked just 15 hands earlier, Event #53 may already have a champion, or at least still be playing the extra allowed level. The victor of the aces cracked hand is Brett Shaffer who was only slightly pipped by Vamplew as the chip leader. Rounding out the rear is Finish player Arttu Raekorpi who also had a chance to take this final table to heads-up play if it wasn't for a three-out by Vamplew.

Play is set to re-commence at 1 p.m. local Las Vegas time with the three remaining players playing down until the Event #53 Champion is crowned and their pocket is $665,397 heavier.


Good luck to David tomorrow, going for a second British bracelet

David Benyamine leads in this ultra slow structure mixed game monster.

The amazingly consistent Matthew Ashton from Liverpool is currently 3rd in chips and going for his 453rd final table of the series in Mixed games

Richard Ashby is reported 14th in chips, giving the possibility of a dual UK sweat in the latter stages

Amongst the top ten Jonathan Duhamel, Brian Rast and Shaun Deeb's presence points to what a tough event this is

[George2Loose]

All the hate seems pretty harsh.

No vig tho

Funking against someone for blowing a raspberry at Lady Variance is daft. Goodness knows we'd all like to be that guy.

If there's something else, that might be a different matter. Otherwise, I hope he tears it up

[titaniumbean]

no way, the twitter bants has been off the charts today.

Right. Have found what everyone's on about and have expressed my views about charging vig previously so won't repeat.

Still won't hope he loses.
