#806 – 2009 WSOP #64 – Daily Tilt #31 – Monday, June 29, AM Edition

Posted by Michael Craig

Greg Mueller won his second bracelet of the World Series yesterday. It’s starting to get very interesting in the HORSE. And as much of a grind as it’s been, I’m sorry to see the Series (other than the interminable Main Event) coming to an end. I have many, many more posts based on interviews, observations, and experiences during the Series and will post those as I’m able, along with the latest news and, of course, Main Event updates once that circus gets under way. With a surplus of good material, there is a good chance I’ll be writing about the Series well after its completion.

CHIP COUNTS

All counts are courtesy of the World Series of Poker. Transcription errors are mine and, though I’ll do my best to keep an updated list of who at the Series is affiliated with Full Tilt, apologies for misattribution. I will attempt immediately to correct any errors brought to my attention (mrchaotic@aol.com).

For today, I haven’t yet received the release from Harrah’s with the chip counts. I’m going off Pokernews.com’s information, which is usually, at the end of the day, based on the WSOP’s numbers.
