@jeffplatt Brandon Michalke - black 204. First time playing WSOP main event, was supper excited, and then Antonio Esfandiari sits down 2 spots to his right. This is what it is all about for an amateur experiencing his first Main Event.
@brianchastings@Kevmath The bubble is worth more than $27,500 that places 504-602 realize. You could have 900+ people eyeing the bubble as a better payout, especially those who were already planning on going to Atlantis.
@phil_hellmuth@WSOP@phil_hellmuth congratulations, that is an awesome achievement. Only thing better would be your dad also playing and making day 2…three generations. Best of luck to you and your son - next achievement is to both cash. GL GL #positivity
@Kevmath@CaitlinComeskey Glad you said that @Kevmath because I too thought it was @CaitlinComeskey, and then I saw her post about winning a main event seat through a satellite and I came back to watch this again. Even the Russian character advising her to play…was waiting for a costume change. Lol
@Andy_Bloch@JasonSouthwell@Kevmath@WSOP@PokerNews Also, players should not be allowed to use nicknames. Looking at the list for Day 2A/B/C, I see that PokerKing24, Trustless, Bonecodenerve, and Chaos170 are just a few of the players to advance to Day 2…WTF. Pretty hard to look them up on Hendon Mob.
@Andy_Bloch@JasonSouthwell@Kevmath@WSOP Agree 100% Andy. The data is obviously available - add a player search feature on the “Table” tab just like they have under the “Player” tab. Better yet, when listing players and chip count add a column for table that lists the table number and clickable to show entire table.
