2011 WSOP: WHAT A SCHOCK! 40-YEAR OLD CONTINUES STRONG RUN


PHOTO/SOURCE: POKERNEWS.com

What a month it's been for Mitch Schock! What started with a score at the Macau Poker Cup ends with a gold bracelet - and two other PTPR Scores at the WSOP along the way ... actually, with six days left in June, there is still time for Schock to further improve on his June stats ... not bad for a 40-year old guy that had not scored any points in 2011 heading into June. The win places Schock 9th overall on the 2011 PTPR Tournament Poker Player of the Year Leaderboard.

Other notables: Carter Gill, Tyler Patterson, Rami Boukai, Joseph Hachem, ODB David Baker, Scott Clements and Roger Hairabedian.

In other news, we're going into overtime for a second straight day at the WSOP as Arkadiy Tsinis and Michael Blanovsky were unable to settle things on the "final" day of play - so both will be coming back on Saturday and we will find a winner. Here are their chip counts heading into Saturday:

1 Arkadiy Tsinis 7,110,000
2 Michael Blanovsky 2,765,000
