By far the scoringest event so far, with many selectors having more than one player on the final table. Nathan topped the list, closely followed by Carl, both of them having Mizrachi and Leah on their teams.

The various permutations and high scoring all round meant that this event could have had a huge effect on the league in numerous possible ways. While not coming out on top, Craig extended his lead, with his team putting up a decent score, while his closest rivals mainly didn't score so highly. With many more high buy-in events to come, this tournament shows that big swings are possible and this competition still has a long way to run.

Gorodinsky & Leah - If they can pay $50k to enter a poker tournament, you'd think they could afford some decent clothes



Ben Yu feeling the cold



At my local Grosvenor they complain if you put a cup of coffee on the table.
I don't think Jean-Robert Bellande would enjoy it there.

Take that WSOP!

Linda gave the WSOP the 1-2 last night, finishing in 4th place hot on the heels of cashing in the Seniors, smashing Vegas just like she smashes it over here. Linda had the most chips at one point on the final table, so a few cards running out differently might have meant her picking up the bracelet, but 4th in the World Series is a super result.

Bonyadi's win is quite a landmark. Coming at the age of 83, it makes her the oldest-ever bracelet-winner, beating the record of none other than Johnny Moss, who won the 1988 $1,500 Limit A-5 Draw on his 81st birthday. She also takes Paul "Cigar” McKinney's record as the oldest person to win their first bracelet (2005 Seniors, aged 80). Another remarkable aspect is that she is the mother of three-times champion Farzad Bonyadi, making them the only mother-son bracelet-winning combination. She is also the only woman to win a bracelet so far this year.

But we don't care about that. This one was about Linda! The UK Ladies Champion and first-ever captain of the APAT England team is now a WSOP final-tablist.

A shock result. IrishTom smashes it out of the park with top score for this tournament. Now that he has turned it around, I have a feeling he is going to run over the competition. Watch out Craig!
