Things seemed to be going very slow at the final table at Foxwoods. At about 3pm Foxwoods time, we still had 9 players alive, including Sorel Mizzi, with a good chip stack. By 5pm Foxwoods time, the WPT Final Table was set, and Sorel Mizzi was the bubble boy.
In what was supposed to be an epic battle between the #1 Ranked PTPR Player (Mizzi) and the #3 Ranked PTPR Player (Tom Marchese) instead ended with an unexpected exit for Sorel ... Sorel had this to say on his Twitter feed, minutes after being eliminated from the Main Event at the WPT Foxwoods World Poker Finals ...
Just @joesebok seventhboked WPT final table in kind of a gross way... I feel like I played really well tho so NP. Next stop NAPT!
Mizzi has still been able to pad his lead atop the PTPR standings. The 7th place finish (his 9th PTPR score of the season) earns him 27 PTPR Points. Sorel now has 357 PTPR Points this year.
Marchese will earn a minimum of 27 points for this event - should he finish 6th - no matter where he finishes, Marchese will jump to second place by the end of this event. Tom would need to finish either first or second in order to overtake Mizzi as the #1 PTPR Player for 2010.
Jason Mercier scored for the 4th time this season, finishing 11th, a 12th place finish gives Hoyt Corkins his 4th score of the season as well.
