Doyle & Ivey Leading WPT Champ

[Bill Murphy]

As of 4pm PST Doyle=900K, Ivey=700K. About 16 left, updates on the hour at cardplayer.com, thanks Barry. Looks like Doyle just BBQ'd his beginning table today(whoda thunk? /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif ). The slow structure of this tourney really favored him, as DanielN predicted on RGP.

AllenC has a lot of chips too; boy, talk about your potential dream final table.... /forums/images/icons/cool.gif /forums/images/icons/club.gif /forums/images/icons/club.gif /forums/images/icons/club.gif /forums/images/icons/club.gif /forums/images/icons/club.gif

Is this the big poker event of the year, or is it that 600+ entrant crapshoot known as the WSOP? I've made up my mind.

[Bill Murphy]

Well, assuming that B doesn't eventually take over the whole deal, I think the WSOP 10K & B 25K will 'evolve' to having different fields & settling different questions, if that makes any sense.

BTW the B final six if they stopped now would be:
TedF
Alan Goehring (2nd in WSOP in 99)
Doyle
Ivey
Derek Baxter
James Hoeppner

The 99 WSOP final six was
Furlong
Goehring
PadraigP
Seidel
Bigler
Huck

111 entrants v 393....
