Level 4 Update: Money Details Coming SoonFeb 26, '10 Blinds: 100-200 with a 25 ante Players Remaining: 621 out of 744 Chip Counts: 1. Jon Luu — 110,000 Average Chip Count: 23,691 Notable Eliminations: Kevin Saul Big Hands:
Earlier, we reported that Kevin Saul ran his kings into the pocket aces of Jennifer Tilly. This level, his tournament came to an end when his set of fours ran into an opponent’s set of nines. Guess it’s just one of those days for the WPT Champion. Left In The Deck Prop Bet Blunders Joe Sebok, Jeff Madsen and Gavin Smith all made a ridiculous last longer bet where the first player out in this event would have to get the other two player’s faces tatooed on his body. That honor went to Joe Sebok, who was eliminated earlier today when his pocket aces got cracked. The second player out, only had to get the face of the winner tattoed on his body. That player was Jeff Madsen, who must now find a way to buy out of the bet. Gavin Smith, as the last man standing, will now have to decide whether or not to take pity on his friends, perhaps allowing them to get off with just a monetary penalty.
