Mit gleich zwei Hoffnungen aus deutschsprachiger Sicht ging das WSOP Event #17, ein $1.500 NLHE 6-max, in den dritten Turniertag, doch leider endete dieser mit einer Enttäuschung.
Gabriel Baumgartner aus Leipzig trat sogar als Chipleader zu Tag 3 an, doch an einem gebrauchten Tag war nach einer unglücklichen Hand, in der er mit AK gegen AQ verlor, auf Platz 22 Schluss.
Kaum besser lief es für Markus Kühnen, der von Platz 17 startete und am Ende mit Platz 19 ebenfalls gut $15.000 kassierte.
Das Turnier ist auf vier Turniertage angesetzt und wurde beim Erreichen des sechsköpfigen Finaltisches abgebrochen.
In Führung liegt Joey Weissman, doch mit Nick Schulman, Ryan D’Angelo oder Ognyen Dimov hat er noch harte Konkurrenz im Kampf um das Bracelet und die Siegprämie von über $378.000
