LAS VEGAS–They\’re down to the money in the $1,000 Ladies event. La Sengphet is sitting as an above-average stack, and though I can\’t get a good look at the size of her stacks, the lovely (and recently married, I heard?) Chantel McNulty has also cashed. The celebrity still alive is Mimi Rogers.
It\’s after midnight here in Vegas, and they\’re still at 8 tables. Yet WSOP authorities are saying they are gonna make the women play down to a final table of 9. That could take til 6 am! (And this is a tourney that started an hour earlier than usual — 11 am.) Will be interesting to see how they resolve this one. The problem is that tomorrow\’s event — $1,000 NLHE — is already sold out. More than 2,100 buy-ins so far, with presumably a few hundred alternates TK. So they need the table space.
The big $10k Omaha event is also still going on, so they\’ll have a few tables of that to finnagle as well. Good logistical fun.
(PREDICTION: By 3:30 or 4 am they will decide to call it a night for the Ladies.)
UPDATE: They\’re down to 30 at 3 am. Gonna play down to 18. Play will resume at 4 pm tomorrow. La is still in it with a well-above-average stack.
The other big stack at her table is a tall skinny Asian women with very noticeable knockers and shorts smaller than those being worn by the Milwaukee\’s Best Light Garage girls. I may or may not have gotten a peak at something I wasn\’t supposed to when she got up to stretch.
