Matthew Ashton

The World Series of PokerThe $50,000 Poker Players Championship is entering its final stretch. The bubble has burst and only two tables of six remain.

Day three had a fairly distinct feature, a fairly pronounced imbalance between the top and bottom of the leaderboard. Because of this, the entire decline into a bubble is more or less resistance against short stacks.

The drama gets worse when one of these short stacks has a 16 bracelet. Phil Hellmuth spends most of the day moaning about every pot he loses, because his worst mood is known to come when he loses a hand, and he’s already lost Many hands. Regardless, he offers another lesson in his quirky short-stack strategy, which involves avoiding flips as much as possible in a mixed-limit format.

Hellmuth once again proved his poker vision to be valid, not theoretical heresy, and secured his poker vision’s 189th WSOP cash.

In order for Hellmuth and John Monnette to compete for the prize money, a sacrifice had to be made and that was Nacho Barbero. While the two shorts kept the table, the Argentine lost an increasingly important pot. Unlike his opponent, Nacho went all-in pre-flop against Talal Shakerchi in the PLO, with the community betting in the millionaire’s favor.
