PNW_WSOP_15 Summer Series Report for July 5

WSOP Event #63 $1.5K Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo Day 4

With just three-and-a-half big bets (less than a third of his two opponents on Day 4), Dan Idema needed to get some traction to get out of third place. It didn’t happen, however, and Idema lasted all of twenty minutes before he cashed for his fifth time at this year’s series.

WSOP Event #66 $777 NLHE Lucky Sevens Day 3

The Lucky Sevens played down to the unofficial final table of ten on Day 3, but none of the three remaining PNW players made it. Jacqueline (#SummerOfJackie) Burkhart was the first to fall, cashing for a second time in this year’s series. It was Gabriel Sechan’s first WSOP cash. Kevin MacPhee has racked up six this year. Friend of the blog Jeff Dobrin is second in chips in the final ten, keep an eye on the WSOP Live Stream page; video will go live 30 minutes after a player is eliminated to make the official final table.

WSOP Event #67 $10K NLHE Dealers Choice Day 3

Rep Porter of Washington got close to a third WSOP bracelet, but was short-stacked toward the end of the tournament and ground down by eventual champion Quin Do. It was Porter’s seventh cash of the summer and his second final table.

WSOP Event #68 $10K NLHE Main Event Day 1A

There’s possibly some strategy about which of the three entry days you start with in the Main Event. The Sunday Day 1A always has the smallest field, just 741 this year; 771 last year. Days 1B and 1C will have several thousand each, as people who don’t want to wait around a couple days for Day 2 (assuming they get there) show up in town. Day 1A is for the people already in town because they’ve been playing the series, or they just have the wherewithal to spend the extra days. It worked out well for the guy who was the chip leader of Day 1A last year: Martin Jacobson.

470 players made it through Day 1A (63% of entries). The current chip leader has 152K, the median stack is 40K (from a 30K starting stack). This is the first crop of PNW players who are going through to Day 2.
