Tuesday Night is Poker Night on ESPN

The ‘November Nine’ is within sight, Tuesday, Oct. 6 at 9 p.m. on ESPN

Lon McEachern and Norman Chad co-host the Main Event of the 2010 World Series of Poker, presented by Jack Link’s Beef Jerky.

Over 98% of the 7,319 player field has been eliminated, and amazingly a pair of Mizrachi Brothers are still contending on Day 6. This season’s $50k Poker Players Champion, Michael, and 2007 Bracelet winner Robert are in the hunt, but advancing will be no easy task as plenty of top players, including Eric Baldwin, Matt Affleck, James Carroll, Peter Jetten, David Benyamine and Jean-Robert Bellande in the field.

World Poker Tour $25,000 Championship Event – David Williams Wins Championship

Sunday, April 25th, 2010

David Williams outlasted 195 players in the Season 8 World Poker Tour Championship event at Bellagio in Las Vegas and took down the title of WPT Champion.

Williams beat Eric “basebaldy” Baldwin heads-up to win the title and took home $1,530,537 in first-place prize money. When heads-up play began, Williams had a 3-1 chip lead over Baldwin.

There wasn’t much action until the final hand when Williams raised to 500,000 and Baldwin raised all-in making it 4,765,000 to call. Williams thought for a minute or two then called and turned over his pocket deuces. Baldwin showed a Ah-5h.

The flop came Ad-7c-6s, and Baldwin’s pair of Aces put him in the lead. But a deuce fell on the turn and the river was insignificant as Williams took down the final hand with trip deuces to win the title and more than $1.5 million in prize money.
