Poker From The Rail

Posted by AlCantHang | Filed under Bloggers on the Rail

They are in Day 4 of the WPT LA Poker Classic Main Event at the Commerce Casino and Chris Ferguson is leading the way amongst the Full Tilt pros. The $10,000 buyin tournament drew 696 players with a first place prize over $1,600,000. The bubble burst at the end of Day 3 with Nick Schulman, Greg Mueller, Erica Schoenberg, and David Pham joining Ferguson in making the money.

In other news, new Full Tilt pro Vivek Rajkumar outlasted 111 other players to win the inaugural LA Poker Classic Heads Up tournament before the Main Event kicked off. Rajkumar came out of the loser bracket of the event and defeated fellow Tilter David Oppenheim en route the final table. This is yet another big win in the young pros career which started with an event when last year at the LAPC. I was able to witness his biggest win, taking down the 2008 Borgata Poker Open Main Event in September for $1,400,000 and the shortest (per hand) WPT final table.

A fine addition to the fold.

   @ Hubert Felila I assume it is true what you tell. But don’t forget that that is just true for this condition. In changed situations the case can look different.
