Update on Team PokerStars Pro: Victor Ramdin
We just finished the dinner break here on Day 2b and a number of PokerStars Team Pros are still left in the field. Of those still left, we have Victor Ramdin, who has already cashed six times during the 2011 World Series of Poker. Ramdin holds a World Poker Tour title that netted him over $1.3 million along with a win in the Main Event at The Big Event in Los Angeles for $500,000. One thing he doesn't have though is a World Series of Poker gold bracelet.
Ramdin’s first four cashes came in the beginning of June when he cashed for a total of $39,761. He also cashed twice more after that at the end of the month for another $11,847 to bring his Series total to $51,608. Here are his 2011 WSOP results:
- $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em / Six Handed - 78th for $4,898
- $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout - 29th for $4,998
- $3,000 Limit Hold'em - 13th for $11,288
- $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. - 9th for $18,577
- $1,500 Limit Hold'em Shootout - 51st for $4,118
- $2,500 Seven Card Razz - 16th for $7,729
Ramdin has cashed in the WSOP Main Event twice during his career. The first was a 29th-place finish in the 2003 Main Event for $35,000 -- the year fellow Team PokerStars Pro Chris Moneymaker went on to win and ignite the poker boom. The second one was in 2008. He finished in 64th place that year, but due to the much larger field size, earned $96,500.
Currently in this Main Event, Ramdin sits with approximately 125,000 in chips with hopes of a seventh WSOP cash on his mind and a spot in the 2011 November Nine.
