WSOP Update

Official Day 7 Seat Assignments Announced

It's Day 7 of the 2008 WSOP Main Event, and the 27 surviving players will return today at noon to play down to the final nine. WSOP officials conducted a redraw at the end of Day 6 play, and have now released the Day 7 seat assignments. Personally, I'm disappointed in the eliminations of Phil Hellmuth and Mike Matusow (in 30th place). I'll probably now be pulling for any American, but specifically, I'd like to see Tiffany "Hot Chips" Michelle, the lone female, make a deep run. Here is how the remaining 27 players will line up:

(Table 1)
Joe Bishop (Cincinnati, Ohio) - 4,855,000
Peter Eastgate (Odense, Denmark) - 9,325,000
Gert Andersen (Herning, Denmark) - 6,740,000
Kelly Kim (Whittier, California) - 8,840,000
Brandon Cantu (Las Vegas, Nevada) - 4,740,000
Dean Hamrick (East Lansing, Michigan) - 2,375,000
Ivan Demidov (Moscow, Russia) - 4,965,000
Niklas Flisberg (Stockholm, Sweden) - 1,330,000
Michael Carroll (Carson, California) - 1,015,000

(Table 2)
Scott Montgomery (Perth, Ontario, Canada) - 4,320,000
Tim Loecke (Highland Park, Illinois) - 2,280,000
Anthony Scherer (Truckee, California) - 2,385,000
Owen Crowe (Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada) - 3,800,000
