A Perfect Ten

With her deep run in the $3,000 No Limit Hold'em event, Jackie Glazier became the tenth woman to make a WSOP final table this summer. That is twice as many women as 2011. Glazier also joins the ranks of Allyn Jaffrey Shulman ($603,713), Amanda Musumeci ($481,643), and Vanessa Selbst ($161,345)as women who have brought in six-figure WSOP scores this year.

Two for the Good Guys

Ronnie Bardah and Chris Tryba have been friends a long time. Today, they shared an incredible moment together as they both were presented with their gold bracelets. Bardah earned his for the $2,500 Six-Max Limit Hold'em while Tryba won the $2,500 Mixed Hold'em.

The Return of the Champ

Two Sides to Every Story

Andrew Brown (right) can only throw up his hands in disbelief as Jan-Peter Jachtmann (left) cracks his set of queens by spiking a straight on the river in the final hand of Event #39 ($10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha). Brown, who won an Omaha bracelet during the 2008 WSOP, would have had a huge chip lead if his hand held up, but it's Jachtmann's turn to celebrate as he wins his first WSOP bracelet.

Hug It Out

Maybe the Mayans Were Right

No Laughing Matter

Jason Mercier was all smiles at the beginning of the $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha final table. Mercier was going for his third bracelet but fell short as he was eliminated in 8th place for $72,132.

Comeback Kid?

Ronnie Bardah came into the final day of the $2,500 Six-Max Limit Hold 'em event as the shortest stack. However, just one elimination from the final table, Bardah is now second in chips and looking for his first bracelet.
