There are nine bags of chips sat quietly waiting for someone to burst them open and spill their guts all over the table. The camera stares and blinks. The players are hanging around nervously in the foyer. It is of course the final day of WSOPE event #3 the €5,300 PLO tournament and what a final day it is going to be.
We have a sumptuous final table line up. Heading the nine stars who will populate the silver screen of cyber space today is Sam Trickett. Trickett already has €3 million in live tournament earnings under his mattress, and a potential €1 million Partouche Poker Tour pay day approaching in November.
Also joining Trickett is November Niner Eoghan O'Dea, WSOP Circuit winner Sam Chartier and WSOP bracelet holder Steve Billirakis.
Most of the players are deep so we expect a lot of poker to be played today and you can receive all of it right here starting at 15.00 (CET).
