Event #74: The Little One for One Drop - $1,000 +111 No-Limit Hold'em
Jour 1c terminé
Alors que la nuit de jeudi à vendredi a permis l'entrée dans l'argent sur le Main Event, un ultime tournoi WSOP se déroulait au Rio. L'occasion de faire une bonne action ausi puisque les participants peuvent prendre des jetons supplémentaires en donnant 111$ pour améliorer la qualité de l'eau et son accès dans les endroits lesplus défavorisés de la planète.
En parallèle de l'événement principal, la troisième journée de départ du Little One For One Drop à 1111$ l'entrée a donc livré son verdict. Avec 2484 participants lors du Jour 1C, l'affluence totale du 74e et dernier tournoi des Championnats du Monde 2017 a grimpé à 4 391 soit 31 entrées de plus que lors de l'édition précédente remportée par Michael Tureniec.
Après un Jour 1A où aucun Français ne s'était qualifié pour le Jour 2 qui aura lieu dans la nuit de vendredi à samedi, un Jour 1B qui avait vu le passage de 197 joueurs et de 4 tricolores [Ilan Boujenah (43000), Gilles Frère (90000), Jimmy Guerrero (42000) et Phillippe Ktorza (40000)], 470 joueurs ont franchi l'obstacle pour porter le total de survivants à 784 pour le Day 2.
Il y aura 9 Français au Jour 2 puisque 5 tricolores sont passés la nuit dernière : le chanteur Grégoire Boissenot (46000), Romain Lefebvre (38000), Jacques Guenni (19000), le Top Shark Winamax Aladin Reskallah(18000) et un Julien Sitbon très short (4700) puisque la reprise se fera sur les blindes 600-1200 (200) avec 784 joueurs pour 659 places payées (1500$ pour le min-cash et 528 316$ à la gagne, ndlr).
Le Jour 1C représentait la dernière chance pour de nombreux joueurs et ni Phil Hellmuth ni Bryn Kenney ou encore Ryan Laplante, Joe Hachem, Johnny Lodden, Ben Keeline, Ari Engel, William Kassouf, Mike Shariati, Nathalie Hof, Maurice Hawkins et Kitty Kuo n'ont su en profiter.
Si tout ce beau monde a échoué à se qualifier, Chris Ferguson (93 000) devrait atteindre tranquillement l'argent pour améliorer son record de places payées aux WSOP.
Daniel Negreanu a lui profité du re-entry illimité, il a passé sa frustration du Main Event en envoyant tapis sur ses 6 premières entrées avant de commencer à jouer et de finir avec 56 000 jetons.
Cory ‘BiNks’ Waaland, qui a publié une vidéo devenue virale sur la positivité et le fun qu'il faut chercher en jouant au poker plus tôt cet été
a ensaché 96,700 jetons tandis que JC Tran (25000), Joseph Cheong (80000) et Danny Wong mettaient l'ambiance à leur table pour oublier le tournoi principal. Wong a même écopé d'une pénalité pour un langage un peu trop direct, l'effet des nombreuses bières partagées.
Guiseppe Pantaleo est le patron du tournoi à l'issue des trois journées de départ. Il a terminé chipleader du Jour 1C avec 335,800 jetons. alors qu'Eric Wasserson (150,000), Jean Gaspard (169,300), Tony Dunst (102,600), Martin Jacobson (64,500) ont passé l'obstacle. Alex Foxen (186 000) et les Belges Eric Manderlier (264 800) et Pierre Neuville (166,000) se préparent un joli deep-run alors que PokerNews sera en direct du Rio pour vous faire vivre la fin du tournoi à partir de 23 heures...
