Day 5 Completed
Adrian Apmann took down Event #42: $1,500 Extended Play No-Limit Hold'em for $478,102 and a WSOP bracelet Wednesday. A fifth day was added to the event with five players remaining early Wednesday morning and Apmann began it with the chip lead.
The name on the marquee, however, was WSOP bracelet winner and veteran UK pro Barney Boatman. Afyer two bust outs, Boatman found himself locked in a three-handed battle with Apmann and eventual runner-up Yehoram Houri that lasted some five hours before he eventually ran into Apmann's to bust third.
The german born Austrian resident then rolled over Houri to win his first piece of WSOP hardware, ultimately outlasting a massive field of 1,914 in the first ever low buy-in extended level length event at the WSOP.
