Lee Davy brings you updates from the World Series of Poker Main Event as nine players battle it out for the title of poker’s Champion of the World and $8m in prize money.
Yesterday, Gordon Vayo was the only player to temporarily take the chip lead from Qui Nguyen when he doubled through Vojtech Ruzicka, and he has done it again at a vital moment in this competition; this time with Cliff Josephy nursing a sore head.
Josephy opened to 2,500,000 on the button; Vayo called in the small blind before Nguyen squeezed to 7,700,000 from the big blind – both players called.
Flop: [Kd] [3c] [2s]
