Greenstein's Elimination Shakes Up POY Race

Barry Greenstein, with his 6th place finish, has just secured the top spot in the Milwaukee's Best Light WSOP Player of the Year standings. With 235 total points, Greenstein is just 3 points ahead of previous leader Jacobo Fernandez.

While impressive, Greenstein shouldn't get too attached to his lead as his elimination has means Erick Lindgren will finish at least 5th in this event. Those 5th place points will guarantee Lindgren will at least tie Greenstein for the top spot and assuming Lindgren is not the next player eliminated from this event, he will become the outright leader.

Needless to say, any of the other top contenders could change things in the upcoming days. Jacobo Fernandez, David Benyamine and John "The Razor" Phan are all very much in the mix and with a strong finish in the upcoming days, could easily alter the POY landscape.
