They don't call him the Magician for nothing. Almost three months after winning 18M dollars at the Big One for One Drop, Antonio Esfandiari (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: 3rd) has just picked up another bracelet, this time at WSOP Europe.
Esfandiari's second major tournament win of the season and fifth score of the year (all at WSOP events) means that The Magician moves up, way up, to #3 overall on the 2012 QuadJacks Poker Player of the Year Leaderboard powered by PTPRpoker.
Esfandiari's big jump sends Vanessa Selbst down to fourth on the list and moves Partouche Grand Final winner Ole Schemion out of the Top 10.
Salvatore Bonavena (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-478th), Antonin Teisseire (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-858th), McLean Karr (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-1,158th) and Ashly Butler (2012 QJ/PTPR Rank: T-311th) all joined Esfandiari at the final table.
FINAL TABLE SET IN PLO EVENT #3
The final table in the 5K PLO event is set. Days after collecting the WCOOP High Rollers title online, Jason Mercier will be at the final table.
The Grinder, Michael Mizrachi will re-enter the POY Top 5 as he's assured of 10 PTPR points.
Although he cannot overtake the #1 ranked Daniel Smith even with a win, Mizrachi - who won a bracelet here in Cannes last year - can position himself quite well for a late-season stretch run.
Fan favourite Roger Hairabedian, recent WPT Malta final table participant Jussi Ryynanen and former WSOP World Champion Joe Hachem will also be part of the final table.
