A little follow-up to last month’s post about Oregon players at the WSOP…this is how the 41 Oregon players in the Main Event did at the end of each day. 6,598 players entered on three starting days. 666 places paid.

Day 3 (720 players remaining, median stack: 235,000)
#146 Alexander Beck, Happy Valley, 404,000
#201 Jamie Robbins, Portland, 346,500
#214 Dan Martin, Klamath Falls, 337,000
#281 Paul Isom, Astoria, 283,000

Day 4 (282 players remaining, median stack: 597,000)
#20 Jamie Robbins, Portland, 1,503,800

Day 5 (97 players remaining, median stack: 1,700,000)
#51 Jamie Robbins, Portland, 1,649,000

Day 6 (27 players remaining, median stack: 7,330,000)
#7 Jamie Robbins, Portland, 8,750,000

Dan Martin fell short of the money on Day 4. Paul Isom made $24,808 for 518th place. Alexander Beck finished in 372nd for $32,871. Jamie Robbins, as mentioned in the other post, went all the way to 19th on Day 7 for $294,601.

What was interesting to me was the varying number of players for each of the entry days. Only 1,066 on Day 1A, then 2,114 on 1B, and 3,418 on 1C. Yet despite a 1:3.5 disparity in the number of players, the median stack only shows a 4% variation at the end of the first day of play.
