Mit noch 18 übrigen Teilnehmern der einst 1.360 gestarteten Entries ging es beim WPT $3.500 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown gestern um die sechs Plätze am Final Table. Als massiver Chipleader durfte der US-Profi Chad Eveslage beginnen, der es zwar an den Finaltisch schaffte, jedoch deutlich Federn lassen musste und mit 22 Big Blinds heute als einer der Shortstacks beginnen wird. Deutlich besser lief es für seinen Landsmann James Carroll (Bild), der in der Saison 2013/14 schon einmal zugeschlagen hat bei einer WPT und dabei über $1,2 Millionen an Preisgeld kassierte. Mit einem Stack von 18.525.000 Chips (124 Big Blinds) hat der ehemalige WPT Bay 101 Shooting Star Champ einen komfortablen Stack für das heutige Finale, wo er seine Bankroll im besten Fall mit $715.175 aufbessern könnte.
Ein Wörtchen mitreden um den Sieg wird sicherlich auch Maria Ho, die dem Führenden James Carroll dicht auf den Fersen ist. Sie wird das Finale heute mit 16.650.000 Chips (111 Big Blinds) von Platz zwei angehen und hat somit beste Chancen auf ihren Triumph bei der WPTDeepstacks in Johannesburg noch einen drauf zu setzen.
Mit Eric Afriat ist zudem noch ein Spieler im Rennen, der den WPT SHR Showdown schon einmal gewinnen konnte. 2014 räumte der mittlerweile zweifache WPT-Champion den Titel samt einer Siegprämie von $1.080.000 ab.
