Gavin Smith and Erik Seidel lead the Full Tilt charge at Fallsview Casino Resort in Niagra Falls, Ontario. More after the jump.
Gavin Smith is sitting in a great spot to claim his first major tournament on his home Canadian soil. He will begin Day 4 of the North American Poker Championship in Niagra Falls, Ontario with the number 2 chipstack with the field down to the final 27.
Vivek Rajkumar finds himself sitting on top of the field and looking to win an unprecedented back-to-back WPT titles but has 4 top players nipping at his heels. He has to be feeling some pressure with this list of players sitting just behind him in chip counts.
Vivek “psyduck” Rajkumar – 1,080,000
Gavin Smith – 979,000
Matt Matros – 943,000
Kathy Leibert – 879,000
Erik Seidel – 851,000
They’ll be playing down to the final 6 for the televised final table.
Besides Gavin Smith and Erik Seidel, Miami John Cernuto is the only other Full Tilt pro remaining in the final 27 although with a very small stack. He will need to do some work with his 92,000.
The 2008 North American Poker Championship was a $10,000 (Canadian) buyin tournament that started with 454 players. The top 45 players made the money with the winner receiving $1,090,589.
