href="http://www.best-poker-site-reviews.com/" target="_blank" title="Poker">poker</a> player all too well.  He traded in the life of a professional poker player and decided to return to school to pursue his law degree.  However, this summer he was doing an internship in Las Vegas and decided to enter some tournaments.  The decision paid off and he will now have a very nice start to paying off all of that tuition with his first $625,682.</p><p>The final hand of the heads <a
href="http://www.onlinepokerroomrankings.com" target="_blank" title="tournament">tournament</a> had Wolpert on the button and limping in to a check from Duthie.  The flop came out 10s3s5c and while Duthie was looking to see a free turn, Wolpert fired at the pot with a 120,000 bet.  Duthie immediately came right back over the top to push all in and was called by Wolpert who was looking to finally put this tournament away.  The cards were turned and while Duthie had hit top pair, he was behind the bottom two pair of Wolpert.  The turn and river produced a JhQh and Duthie was out with a second place prize of $386,636.</p><p><a

JC Tran started making his move about half way through the final session and never looked back.  This is his second WSOP bracelet overall and will now put him over the $2 million mark in career earnings in the <a
href="http://wsop.pokercurry.com/"target="_blank" title+"WSOP">WSOP</a>.</p><p>In other tournaments…</p><p>The $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. Tournament is still going strong and will likely be playing until the early hours of the morning.  There are currently still 4 players left and all are still in relatively good ship as far as chips are concerned.  Mitch Schock is the current leader with 1,015,000.</p><p>Event 32 is still running a little slow and has not made it down to the final table and it is unlikely that they will by the end of the playing session tonight.  With 42 players still alive at this late hour, they are going to have to come back a little early tomorrow to finish this one off.  Rui Cao is the current leader at 467,000.</p><p>The World Championship Limit Hold’em is also struggling to get down to their number, but there has been some large movements on the overall leader board.  Jennifer Harman started the day off as the chip leader with about 165,000 and is currently sitting at 155,000 after about 10 hours of play.  As predicted, there are still some very big name professionals still going strong in this one.  Kenny Hsuing is the current leader with $410,000.</p><div

href="http://www.top10pokerbonuses.com" target="_blank" title="Poker">poker</a> titles that any player can win is the Heads-up Championship.  After two very long days, we are finally down to 8 players and all three matches will be played today until we have a champion.  One of the most feared players in the world is still alive as Johnny Chan is on his game and looking for his 11th bracelet.  Here are the matchups for the remaining 8:</p><p>Leo Wolpert –vs- Dustin Wolf</p><p>Jamin Stokes –vs- Johnny Chan</p><p>Nathan Doudney –vs- Bryan Pelligrino</p><p>John Duthie –vs- Steve O’Dwyer</p><p>Event 28 continued to move slowly and play was stopped at the 3am deadline.  However, they still have 27 players left in the tournament and will be back early on Monday to get this one done.  Play is scheduled to start at 1pm.  Joe Simmons is the current leader with 1,100,000, but there are several players hot on his heels and well within striking distance.  It would be a surprise if they don’t get close to the 3am deadline again to get the bracelet decided on.</p><p> <a

JC Tran is the current leader with 176,900 in chips.  He has a lot of competition for the top spot though as John Juanda, Eli Elezra and Andy Bloch are all in the top 20.  Event 31 started with 770 players and was the late starting tournament of the evening.  Sabic Sebastian is the overall leader with 72,700 in chips and Marco Traniello (55,000) and Andrew Black (54,300) are on the first page of the leader board.</p><p>Another <a
href="http://www.wsop4all.com/wsop-champions" target="_blank" title="World Championship">World Championship</a> Event kicks off tonight at the $10,000 Limit Hold’em Event will get underway.  There were some noticeable absences from the last couple of tournaments which should mean that this field is going to be loaded with a lot of well rested professionals.  Don’t be surprised to see the likes of Hellmuth, Negreanu, Lindgren, Brunson and Harmon going deep in this one.</p><div
