2010 WSOP Event #20 info

[lkport]

Event #20 of the World Series of Poker is a $1,500 buyin Pot Limit Omaha event. The field of 885 players will vie for $1,194,750 in prize money spread out to 81 players.

Sorry i missed the day 1 update but this event is already down to the 9 player final table. We will see a bracelet awarded in this event today. Nenad Medic has everyone at the final table covered in chips by a 3-1 margin. Unless he develops big stack disease, he should be well placed for a run at the bracelet. perhaps not a household name, Medic won the $10,000 Championship pot Limit Omaha bracelet in 2008. A big chip lead does not guarantee a win, and the other 8 players surely believe they can pull it off as well.

The owner of Big Johnson's Beer Garden Bar in Texas, John "tex" Barrch wins his first WSOP bracelet in this event. He takes home $256,919, a lot less than he got for 3rd in the 2005 WSOP Main Event that Pokerstars pro Joe Hachem won, but this comes with a gaudy wrist bauble.
