Another review from the World Series of Poker Europe this time focusing on Chris ‘Jesus’ Ferguson winning his sixth bracelet after only 92 players entered Event #7: €1,650 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better.

I was about to write, “Chris ‘Jesus’ Ferguson had never won an easier bracelet,” when I learned in 2003 he beat 89 entrants to win a $2,000 50/50 Limit Hold’em and Seven Card Stud event.

But that was 14-years ago.

We shouldn’t be playing for bracelets in fields of 92 entrants. I’m not sure what’s more of a travesty. The fact that Event #7: €1,650 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better to went ahead (isn’t there a TOC about shame?) or the fact that the organisers allowed the eventual winner to play.
