2009 World Series of Poker – Week 3 in Pictures

It was another great week for Team Full Tilt. Final tables were populated with players patched up in FTP gear and make a lot of noise. Three bracelets would be brought into the fold by Phil Ivey, Nick Schulman and Greg “FBT” Mueller. If the rest of the poker world wants to catch up, they better start working hard.

It’s Friday so that means it’s time for the Week in Pictures.  These are just some of the collection that did not make any posts during the week but are worthy of your time

2009 World Series of Poker – Day 17 From the Rail

As the weekend insanity starts here in the Amazon Room, Full Tilt Poker claims it’s third bracelet at the 2009 World Series of Poker.  Nick Schulman was the last player standing in the $10,000 No Limit Deuce to Seven World Championship.  He outlasted a stacked final table that included John Juanda, Michael Binger, Archie Karas, and David Benyamine along with two players already sporting 2009 WSOP bracelets, Steve Sung and Ville Wahlbeck.

Schulman outlasted 95 other players to claim his first WSOP title.  He burst on the live poker scene as soon as he could play in a casino, winning the WPT World Poker Finals at the fresh age of 21.  In just a few short years he has amassed nearly $4,000,000 in career tournament earnings.

He also brings another bracelet to Team Full Tilt.

I also spent some time railing blogger CK31 in the $2,500 Omaha/8 – Stud/8 tournament which she entered via the Battle of the Blogger Tournament series.  Her Day 2 table draw was tough when she found herself sitting between Full Tilt players Michael Craig and Scott Clements with Jason Mercier sitting on the other side.  CK busted Mercier early in the day and continued to chip up.  It was to become a recurring theme thoughout the day, CK would build up her chip stack only to have fellow Full Tilt blogger Michael Craig lay some kind of crazy bad beat on her.  Just before a tournament break he was drawing to only one out to scoop and dropped a 7th street Ace o’ Diamonds to drag the 34k pot.

She battled her way and survived to make her first WSOP cash, outlasting Mister Craig in the process, to add cash to her bankroll via the BBT4 Challenge.  She’s the first qualifier from the challenge to play and cash in the WSOP, which blogger is next?

The 2008 Five Diamond Poker Classic is down to the final two tables and three Tilters are representing.  Nick Schulman spent a large part of the day with the chip lead but took some hits as the day went along.  Robert Mizrachi is sitting 9th in chips and Mike Matusow is looking to add to his Foxwoods WPT final table from earlier in the year.

Allen Cunningham, David Oppenhein, and Andy Bloch all came up short on Day 4 but added to the list of Full Tilt pros cashing in the $15,000 Main Event.  Day 4 played down from 55 to 18, Day 5 will kick off at noon Vegas time and they will play down to the final 6 for the TV table.

He is joined by Allen Cunningham, David Oppenheim, Andy Bloch and Mike Matusow. Several Tilters were knocked out near the bubble and four made into the money but not onto Day 4.

Several World Series of Poker Main Event champions were also eliminated on Day 4. Poker legends Phil Hellmuth and Johnny Chan joined the tournament host Doyle Brunson on the rail after the bubble burst. 55 players start out the day still holding onto a chance to win the $1.5 million first place prize.

After the jump you will find chip counts for the Tilters going into Day 4.
