Zum Abschluss ihrer 14.Saison lässt es die World Poker Tour noch einmal mit einem wahren Turnierfeuerwerk krachen.
Bei der WPT Rolling Thunder im Thunder Valley bei Sacramento sind trotz der PokerStars Championship in Panama einmal mehr viele bekannte Namen am Start wie Chris Moorman, Jon Turner, Erick Lindgren, Pratyush Buddiga oder Connor Drinan, die deutschen Farben wurden von Rainer Kempe, Marvin Rettenmaier und Isi Bojang vertreten.
Tag 1A und 1B sind absolviert, und bisher haben sich 376 Spieler mit dem Buy-In von $3.500 für das Turnier angemeldet, noch sind die Zahlen nicht endgültig, da bis zu Beginn von Tag 2 die Late Reg bzw. der Re-Entry möglich sind.
Letztes könnte auch ein Thema für Rainer Kempe werden, der leider an Tag 1B ausschied und sich nun noch einmal einkaufen könnte.
Für Tag 2 qualifiziert sind auf jeden Fall Marvin Rettenmaier und Ismael Bojang, vor allem Mad Marvin konnte sich mit 88.000 Chips gut in Szene setzen.
Aktueller Chipleader der 197 verbliebenen Spieler ist Ting Ho, die mit 181.300 Chips alle männlichen Konkurrenten hinter sich ließ.
