Another One Bites The Dust

So I was just sitting here explaining why I thought David “Cheeno” Rheem would come from behind and take the bracelet.  At about that time, he went all-in with Ace King against Peter Eastgate’s Ace Queen.  Unfortunately, a Queen hit the flop and Cheeno’s Ace King wouldn’t improve.  Cheeno was just knocked out.

It’s about 5:20pm and there are now only 6 left at the final table.

The World Series of Poker Final Table

I know you’re probably thinking to yourself, how am I going to get updates from the final table of the World Series of Poker this year?  The TVT (The Vegas Tourist) crew is going to come through for you!  We are going to be there in person to cover the entire event, right through to the bracelet presentation!

For me personally, this is very exciting.  I’m going to be arriving in Las Vegas tomorrow morning (I still need to pack) where Mark and Sazzy will pick me up from the airport and we’ll go to the Rio where we’ll cover the event.  As much as possible, I’m going to try to use my tech savvy and live blog the event with lots of information and pictures, so keep your eyes on this blog!

As you know, this is the final table of the main event; the one everybody has been waiting for.  9 players remain (The November 9), who are going to battle for the money and prestige that goes with being a main event champion.

And we’ll be there to report on the event for you!

I’ll be taking quick pictures with my camera phone and uploading them to a public channel here (http://share.ovi.com/channel/theresamcclain.WSOP2008).  I’ll also have my digital SLR with me, so I’ll take much better pictures, but you’ll have to wait to see those until I get a chance to upload them to this blog and/or the TVT flickr account.  :)
