I'm reporting on this event today, and feel free to critique my coverage (if you feel like it) in this thread.

I'd actually like it if you pointed out any errors, but since you're rarely getting all of the information on the boards, you won't have much to go on. Stud is a very difficult game to cover live, as you'd imagine.

Hand 72 had to hurt David.

I just hope he outlasts Boyd.

David's All-in and out of tourny on the next hand.

FYI, ESPN has two handheld cameras here recording footage. It won't be an episode, but depending on who wins (and the final three are all big names), there will likely be some coverage during one of the other WSOP episodes.

BJ,

Is the payout page separate from your reporting? It's got Elezra out in third, among other inaccuracies.

All: He's actually heads-up with Scotty, who's rallied to close the chip count to about even. Dutch finished 3rd.
