2010 World Series of Poker
Event #20: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha
Day 2 Completed
And then there were nine.
Coming into the day it was fair to say that all eyes were on a pair of young guns; Jason Mercier and Steven "pikappraider" Burkholder. Those two final tabled this event last year, but were both eliminated during the day today unable to make a repeat performance.
Experience is still key however as four of our nine remaining players have made deep runs at the World Series. Nenad Medic (1), Blair Rodman (9), Trai Dang (1) and John "Tex" Barch (2) have all made final tables, but Medic and Rodman are the only bracelet owners.
Medic is our chip leader entering Day 3 with 1,504,000 chips and the closest player, Tex Barch, is nearly a million chips behind with 546,000.
Ashkan Razavi, Tyler Patterson, Chris Hyong Chang, Denton Pfister and Klinghammer Thibaut round out our final nine.
Event #20 will resume tomorrow at 2:30 p.m. PST, and we will play until the bracelet is claimed. Until then enjoy your night/morning/afternoon or whatever time of day it is!
Oh and LET'S GO USA!

After a long, hard-fought day, we're now down to our final 10 as the remaining players have combined to form our 'unofficial' final table. One man who won't be returning tomorrow is online prodigy Christian "Charder" Harder.
Along with blinds Tyler Patterson and Peter Costa, Harder saw a flop where Costa led for 25,000. Harder made the call and Patterson folded.
A hit the turn, and Costa continued his aggressive streak, firing out a bet of 80,000 to virtually put Harder all in. With 105,000 left, Harder slid in his remaining stack and Costa made the obligatory call. But this wasn't just a pot-committed call; Costa had the nuts...
