Joe Hachem had a tough run in the EPT High-Roller Championship, going deep but falling just short of the money. Yesterday, he made back his money and then some, taking down the £2,000 + £150 8-Game Championship. The event had 60 entrants and Hachem won £42,400 for outlasting them all. Other notable players to take down preliminary events here at the London Poker Festival include Fabrice Soulier, who won the £1,000 + £100 pot-limit Omaha double chance event and Andreas Gulunay, who took down the £1,000 + £100 six-handed no-limit hold’em tourney.

Level 2 UpdateAug 22, '09 Blinds: 100-200 Players Remaining: 263 out of 279 Chip Counts:
Average Chip Count: 30,000 Notable Eliminations: Beth Shak Hand of the Level:
As we reported earlier, Carlos Mortensen was one of the most active players in the tournament during the first two levels and ultimately, it led to his premature departure. Mortensen got the rest of his stack in holding 10 Ace-high was good and it stayed that way when the turn and river came 9 Level Summary: With the conclusion of the first break, registration came to a close and the final tally of 279 players resulted in a $2.6 million prize pool. Last year’s field of 373 has been cut down by more than a fourth, raising some interesting questions about who never made it down to the Bicycle Casino. Interestingly, none of the former seven champions in this event showed up. Chris Karagulleyan, Mel Judah, Doyle Brunson, Alex Kahaner, Joe Pelton and Dan Harrington were all no-shows. Even last year’s champion and reigning Card Player Player of the Year John Phan failed to attend. Last year’s final tablists, however, are well represented with Amit “amak316” Makhija, “Crazy” Zachary Clark and Paul “UCLABRUINZ” Smith all still in the field. Those who did attend are now in contention for the at least $1 million first-place prize. Official numbers will be posted soon under the “Event Info” tab. Player Tags: Carlos Mortensen Level 1 UpdateAug 22, '09 Blinds: 50-100 Players Remaining: 290 out of 290 Chip Counts:
Average Chip Count: 30,000 Notable Eliminations: NONE Hand of the Level:
Carlos Mortensen raised to 3,500 after his opponent bet 1,500 from middle position on a flop of J Later in the level an opponent moved all in against Mortensen on the river of a board that was sowing two tens and a nine. Mortensen made the all-in call with J-9 and he doubled up to 42,000 when his opponent showed down A-K. Level Summary: There are currently 29 tables in action during the first level at the 2009 Legends of Poker championship event. A few players are still strolling into the new events center here at the Bicycle Casino, but it looks like the final number will fall short of the 373 players that played at Legends in 2008. We’ll let you know what the final number of entries stands at when registration is closed. Despite the small blinds and antes many players have managed to lose a large chunk of their stack in the early going. Jimmy Fricke is down to 18,000, Jonathan Little holds 19,000, Vanessa Rousso holds 23,000 and Daniel Negreanu is down to 25,000. Check out how each of these players is doing throughout the day on the CardPlayer.com Twitter page. A few players have managed to almost double up in the early going. Bryan Devonshire leads the way with 58,000 and Marco Johnson is at 56,000. Player Tags: Carlos Mortensen |

The ESPN cameras were eating it up, and Garrett was able to produce a consistent line of chuckles from the players who were along for the ride with him at his table, including former world champion Berry Johnston. At one point, Garrett exclaimed, “Change the rhythm, everybody stand,” and his table played a hand standing up just to mix things up.
