First Level Recap

Play started out slow and it appeared that Carlos Mortensen, the most experienced player at the final table, took control over the first 12 hands. Paul Lee's stack took a few hits, but the biggest damage was done by Tim Phan on Hand #18 when he doubled through Guy Laliberte. Mike Wattel slipped to last in chips after he lost 1M to Guy Laliberte. The WSOP bracelet winner in seven-card stud eventually busted out in 6th place. Tim Phan is now the shortstack. Stay tuned for an official chipcount.
