Nenad Medic pro poekr player was the first to take down a gold bracelet at this years World Series of Poker. Over 700 player ponied up the $10000 buy in for the pot limit holdem championship. The final table included soem big names in the world of poker including Phil Laak, Patrik Antonius, Kathy Liebert and Mike Sexton. Also at the final table was Andy Bloch who recently finished as runner up to Chris "Jesus" Ferguson in the national heads up championship. Well they can start calling him Andy " The Bridesmaid" Bloch because again he took second in this event. The $400k+ win will do his bank balance wll but his ego must be bruised. This was the first bracelet for Medic who is best know for winning a World Poker Tour event at Foxwoods in 06.
Locals in action: Chris Reslock has yet to cash in an event. Matt "allinat20" Stout finished 300th in the huge 4000 person $1500 buy in. That got him 3k. No word on Nick Frangos. Ex Patriated Phil Ivey is the leade in the thousand rebuy restarting today.
The field sizes seem to be on par with what we saw for the 2007 WSOP. The big question is how many people will be in the $10k maine vent. There are also rumors swirling about a settlement between US DOJ and Party Poker opening the door for Party and others to return to US Operations. The whole thing is fucked and needs to be fixed.
Die in a grease fire.
