Bodog Waterford Open Day 2
Well what can we say about Day 2 of the Bodog Waterford Open? Action-packed or what! 112 players returned to try win the lions share of the prizepool of €70,500!
As sure as eggs is eggs, the knockouts were coming thick and fast and the previous night's short stackers were desperate to move up the ranks. The first big cheese was Brian 'The Fox' O'Keefe who was unlucky to find his opponent hitting one of only two cards that could win the hand for him!
Maybe one of the most dramatic hands witnessed during the day was a blur of action that saw Aces take on Queens for a massive pot. "I folded Kings" said Gerry Wall, the player who managed to do what even the most experienced players struggle to do. Had he called, he would have been eliminated from the tournament, but instead he finds himself in a position to challenge for the win having already guaranteed himself €800 along with 17 others!
Going into day 3, the final day of the tournament, the chip leader for the Main Event is Mick G with over 320,000 chips. Yesterday's chip leader, Simon McHechie has improved slightly on his stash with 90,000 chips and is still a force to be reckoned with. Another hot shot to keep eyes on is Anthony Lynch. He has been right up there from the start and could be in the ideal position to topple Mick G, sitting on 275,000 chips.
There's lots of promise for today, see if it does what it says on the tin and follow the live coverage at the Bodog Waterford Open Blog! To have a go yourselves get down to Bodog Poker!
