At this moment, Dennis Phillips is drawing dead with one card to come. That will be 3rd place for him — his boisterous crowd and his Red Hat Brigade are honoring him the way friends of someone who has just won $4.5 million should. (That\’s Greg Raymer money.) Lots of applause.
Heads-up will be Ivan Demidov vs. Peter Eastgate (who stands to be the youngest player ever to win the main event).
Year of the European Young Guns, it turns out to be.
Most of the under bets, by the way, regarding time, win … except for Jen, who took the under on 10 pm. (What was she thinking!)
Chip Counts
Peter Eastgate – 79,425,000
Ivan Demidov – 57,800,000
Clearly anybody\’s game. Russians vs. Scandis. I\’m going with Demidov, though. As we know, the Russians were the ones that really made a showing at the 2008 WSOP, regardless of how tomorrow turns out. Scandis were like so 2007.
