How can Stoke-on-Trent or likewise live stream a £15 tournament on a Wednesday evening after raking £200 yet WSOP can't have streams for the main raking millions?



They can, but, rather wiser and more business savvy than whoever it is in Stoke, they sell the rights to ESPN for absolute chunks.

Can't really blame them, either.

More likely ESPN's influence. They want people to watch the highlight shows, not a live stream.

Think the live stream has detracted from the highlights shows in the past couple of years.

It's better for the players too, what with all the added money ESPN and WSOP add to the prize pool.

@JovialGent

Wow. I can't believe this is real life. Running out of my mind after the first level of day 6. Started with 4.1, up to 9.7 now.

This Philip Long's still in there, every credit. Really tight field in terms of chip distribution, no run away leaders

Anton Morgenstern Leads Final 27; Jackie Glazier Falls in 31st
 
That's it for Level 29, and the entire day, as rapid eliminations all day long have caused a stoppage after just four levels. With 27 players remaining, Anton Morgenstern will lead the way heading into Day 7. He bagged up a whopping 21.955 million in chips after getting a nice boost to his stack in the final hand of the night.

Coming into the day, Sami Rustom had the chip lead with over 7 million in his stack. In the third level of the day, all of those chips were gone as Rustom finished in 39th place. He was eliminated at the hands of Philip Long, finishing with a payday $185,694.

The last level of the night saw Jack Amyx fall in 37th place. He was followed to the payout desk by Umang Dattani (36th place), Nicolas Le Floch (35th place), Byron Kaverman (34th place), Aleksejs Ponakovs (33rd place) and Dan Owen (32nd place)

Moving forward, there are plenty of big names still left in the field. First and foremost, you've got the 2001 Main Event champion Carlos Mortensen. Then, last year's ninth-place finisher Steve Gee is also still alive. Outside of those two, notable players Yevgeniy Timoshenko, David Benefield, JC Tran, Amir Lehavot and Rep Porter all still remain, making for plenty of firepower scattered around the final three tables.

Tomorrow, Day 7 will kick off at 12 p.m. Las Vegas time, and this will be the most important day of the summer for these 27 players that remain. You're either making the November Nine or you aren't, and Monday's play will determine all of that
