World poker tour s05e08 9/9 Foxwoods
Is it Ladies Night at the World Poker Final at Foxwood’s Resort Casino? Frequent WPT table finalist Kathy Liebert and tournament veteran Mimi Tran have come looking to score the first World Poker Tour title for a woman. Semi-pro Michael “Chuckles” Omelchuk is severely short-stacked, as is amateur Mike Perry. But the surprising success story of the event is another amateur, chip leader EG Harvin, who brings almost twice as many chips as any of the top-ranked players. Former basketball player and cash game genius, Nenad Medic brings more bounce to the ounce as he towers over the table with his healthy stack. Seat 1: Michael “Chuckles” Omelchuk – 533000 Seat 2: Kathy Liebert 2500000 Seat 3: Ezra “EG” Harvin 4680000 Seat 4: Mimi Tran 2519000 Seat 5: Mike Perry – 682000 Seat 6: Nenad “The Serb” Medic 1281000
