World Series Of Poker Europe Update: Day 3
September 23, 2008
With the larger end of the £615,000 prize pool to play for, the heat was on in central London yesterday. Nine players remained from an original field of 410 in the £1,500 no-limit hold’em event, but only one could take the top prize of ?144,218, and the object of every player’s fantasy — a World Series Of Poker bracelet.
Daniel Nutt’s dreams flew out the window early in the day after pushing all in following a raise from Yevgeniy Timoshenko. Timoshenko’s pocket nines withstood Nutt’s KQ when the board came out A81047.
After the first break, flops were sparse as short stacks sought double-ups and large stacks bullied. Linda Lee, sitting on 40,000 chips, woke up to K5 and decided to make her move. Fuad Serhan, took a shot and called with Q9. A crushing flop of AQ3 fell for Lee, the 5 turn was too little too late, and the 10 river made no difference.
