102 players, 82 rebuys (100+95), up 2% on last year. Prizepool $446,200 (-8%).
1st prize $178,480 (-8%). Explain the game . Top players
go out in the semi-final but its the first Pot Limit final withou the
Devilfish. The 1998 World Champ., Nguyen, edged out the Cincinnati Kid, a
winner here just four days ago in the Limit Holdem! Ali Sarkeshik of London was
third. Nguyen was let off the hook when there were just three left. Had Lester
not said "call" as he pushed all his chips in (and therefore only making a
call), Nguyen would have been out third. As it was he was left with just 4% of
the chips from where he went on to win talking all the time. The Finalists started |
