This is one of those situations where you get to see how the players handle a problem. Some will be hooting & hollering, even frothing at the mouth, others will react calmly & take it in their stride.
Amazing, over 1,000 players for a Hi-Lo event - & that's LIMIT poker, not No Limit or Pot Limit. Extraordinary. Limit is very big in the USA, rarely played here in the UK.
Yes the Limit 8B got a little getting used to when we played the three game event @Tikay10 Really liked the BigO part of it although it was first time playing both of those for me.
Just 26 remain, & the only UK players left are Ronan Nally, who has a few small cashed in London to his name, & Mel Judah, who is not really a Brit, he's an Aussie.

Your WSOP Bingo Card.
Aces v 4-3. You just know how this will end.
Vegas weather? About normal...
Back to that Hi-Lo 8 or Better.
If you want a flavour of the WSOP, ignore the talking by Helmuth etc, just listen to the sound of millions of chips being cut & riffled. Gorgeous.
Really liked the BigO part of it although it was first time playing both of those for me.

Still a long way to go in this, with 87 of the 225 remaining, but the great news is Sam Grafton is sitting nicely in 4th place.
Love Sam to bits.
