Event #20 - Omaha 8 ($1500)
This tournament will end finally today but that there is more than 2 players with tokens; the American Can Kim Hua (600,000) and Canadian Calen McNeil (3,970,000).
We wish the best of luck to the Canadian for the duel which should be to his advantage, given the number of tokens!
Event #21 - Hold'em no-limit 6-max ($3000)
Yesterday this tournament was to follow given the presence of 3 Quebecers in the race: Jason Duval, Jonathan Roy, Chanracy "chanmix" Khun.
Jason 'Baby dog' Duval saw his race stop in 88th place ($5,023) and was the first of the Québécois 3 to be eliminated.
Later, despite its advance in chips, Jonathan Roy came 34th for a purse of $ 10,574. At this time, it remains that "chanmix" in the race to save the honour of Quebecers.
At the time of this writing, 13 players on 807 are still alive in the tournament including Chanracy with 312,000 (it has one of the smaller stacks, but it is still there!).
At the forefront are the American Matt Stout with a 1.2 M chips.
Chanmix is already assured a scholarship of $ 19,475. If he could finish 1st, it's $ 506,764 that he would win.
We therefore wish him the best of luck for this important day to come.
