Broom Stands Tall at ANZPT Perth
Welcome to the penultimate day of play here at the third stop on Season 5 of the Australia New Zealand Poker Tour.
Today will see the 33 surviving players become just a final table of nine. Before that happens we will burst through the bubble and into the 24 money-paying positions. The min-cash is worth $3,900, but nine players today will be going home empty handed.
One player who is unlikely to go home with no cash for their time is James Broom. A huge day at the felt yesterday saw Broom accumulate a 317,300-chip stack. With Broom's decorated resume on both the live and online felts, he will certainly be the one to beat on Day 3.
Be sure to check out the full Day 3 table draw earlier in the blog, while the top ten chip stacks can be seen below.
