Event #35: $3,000 H.O.R.S.E. was scheduled to play down to a champion on Thursday, but three players remain locked in a struggle for the bracelet and $261,774 in prize money.
Matt Vengrin (3.175) has raced out to a sizable chip lead over competitors Kevin Iacofano (1.39 million) and Daniel Idema (1.08 million). Playing for a bracelet is an old hat for Idema, who has already taken down WSOP events in two of the H.O.R.S.E. disciplines – limit hold'em and stud hi-low – but Vengrin and Iacofano are both looking for their first gold.
The day began with 29 players, all of whom were already in the money. John Racener (fourth), Randy Ohel (seventh) and Taylor Paur (eighth) all advanced to the final table but fell short of the gold. Other players busting on Day 3 included David Oppenheim (ninth), David Benyamine (12th), Mike Leah (13th), Allen Kessler (19th), and 2005 Main Event champ Joe Hachem (22nd).
The three remaining contenders return on Friday at 2 p.m., and with limits moving to 80,000/160,000, things are unlikely to carry on too long.
Remko Rinkema, Jason Somerville, and Donnie Peters are joined by Jeff Madsen, TwoPlusTwo PokerCast producer Ross Henry, and a random old man to discuss Madsen's fourth bracelet, the seedy side of Las Vegas, tipping, and much more.
