There will be a brand new 2010 WSOP Main Event champion this year as Cada was eliminated during day 3 action.  Johnny Chan continues to be one of the chip leaders in 9th place with 636K in chips.

Day 4 begins at Noon Tuesday. Approx. 1,240 runners remain. Chip leader, James Carroll has 803K in chips.

The 2009 WSOP November Nine in order of 2010 current standings…

• Eric Buchman – Started day 1D; Made it to Day 4; (91st) 244,400 chips
• Joseph Cada – Started day 1C (301); Eliminated Day 3
• Steven Begleiter – Started day 1C; Eliminated Day ?
• Kevin Schaffel – Started day 1A; Eliminated Day ?
• Darvin Moon – Started day 1D; Eliminated Day 2B
• Jeff Shulman – Started day 1D; Eliminated Day 2B
• Antoine Saout – Started day 1D; Eliminated Day 2B
• Phil Ivey – Started day 1D; Eliminated early Day 2B
• James Akenhead – Started day 1A; Eliminated Day 2A

Can’t find the posts announcing Begleiter’s and Schaffel’s eliminations, but, cannot find them on the Day 3 chip count, either. Schaffel, I know was good through level 4 of Day 1A with 32,500 in chips.

Do you know when Begleiter and Schaffel were eliminated? Please post the link in Comments, thanks.

Wondering how the 2009 WSOP November Nine did on their journeys to the 2010 WSOP Final Table? Not as well as the 2008 November Nine did last year!  All but 2 have been eliminated. Buchman and Cada remain – and are in great position given that there are over 2500 runners left.

The 2009 WSOP November Nine in order of 2010 current standings…

This week is the last week of July’s play in the 2010 WSOP - and - we’ll learn who’s going to be in the 2010 November Nine!

Sunday off. The 2010 WSOP Main Event resumes Monday and plays every day, Monday through Saturday. Play begins at Noon each day. Friday, they’ll play down to 27, and Saturday they’ll play down to 9 players; the 2010 Novmber Nine.

Monday is Day 3.  2,560 runners remain out of the 7, 319 WSOP Main Event entrants.

All the 2010 WSOP events except the Main Event – which started yesterday - have concluded. So, how is Justin Bonomo doing with his 2010 WSOP Panorama Towers Prop Bet?

Well, on 6/12/2010 – David Baker won Event #19: 2-7 Draw Lowball World Championship (no Limit).

Congrats to Justin Bonomo!

 

Last year, Justin Bonomo bet 7 – 1 that at least one of the poker players from Panorama Towers would win a bracelet in the 2009 WSOP—and—he wasn’t disappointed…Greg Mueller won two bracelets!

Why’d he even make a bet like that? Well, because it is not such a long shot. During the 2009 WSOP, we learned from a conversation between Isaac Haxton and Justin Bonomo who were playing at the same table at the $40K 40th Anniversary No Limit Hold’Em tournament that somewhere between 40 – 80 poker players live in the Panorama Towers (during a WSOP). (I wrote about that conversation, Poker Pros Choose Panorama Towers, last year.)

Well, this year for the 2010 WSOP, Bonomo’s betting 10 – 1 that at least one poker player from Panorama Towers wins a bracelet. Here’s his post announcing this year’s Panorama Towers prop bet on the TwoPlusTwo Forum.

Justin Bonomo announces his 2010 WSOP Panorama Towers prop bet

Interest in Justin’s prop bet grew, and the Two Plus Two forum was laden with whine after whine (hear your child’s fussy “Are we there yet?”) about how quickly Justin could post the official list of poker pros living at Panorama Towers who would be included in his prop bet. Justin promised that he would post the official list by midnight 5/28/2010, and sure enough, a couple of days earlier, on 5/26/2010 he posted the official list of poker pros and the terms of the prop bet on Two Plus Two.
