FINAL NINE SET AT WPT BUCHAREST

Bucharest - Romania – 31st March 2010 – The final nine at the first ever http://www.worldpokertour.com/ event Romania is set! The WPT Bucharest, sponsored by https://www.gamebookers.com/, is taking place at the Novotel Bucharest City Centre Hotel. There were a total of 161 players taking part in the €3000 + €300 Main Event, with first prize taking home €125,846. The event runs until April 2nd and pays 18 places with a total prize pool of €449,450.

The bubble burst late last night and, unbelievably, the bubble boy was Carlos Mortensen. After pushing with AK, he ran into JJ and no help on the board meant it was bike time for the poker superstar.

“These things happen,” said a pragmatic Carlos. “Perhaps I pierced the bubble with my fangs,” he joked. Carlos had donned fangs in a lighthearted tribute to Count Dracula of Transylvania on his arrival in Romania.

Carlos Mortensen won the last WPT event in the United States and this recent WPT Hollywood Poker Open win was a landmark for many reasons. First, it marked his third career WPT title, tying him with Gus Hansen for the most WPT wins by an individual. Secondly, his $393,820 victory pushed him past Daniel Negreanu on the all-time WPT money earners list. With over $5.75 million in WPT winnings to his credit, Mortensen is now the top earner in WPT history. It also put him firmly in the running for the WPT Player of the Year title.

With the final nine set, they now play down to six (six handed final table Friday). France’s Guilame Darcourt has a sizeable chip lead, while online sensation Simon ‘Schibl0r’ Munz makes his first major final table at a live tournament. Romania represents four of the final nine which has a truly international flavour with representatives from Argentina, Germany, France, USA and Hungary.

1. Jose De LaGuardia (ARG) 261,500
2. Ovidu Saizu (ROM) 197,500
3. Atila Abdula (ROM) 110,000
4. Eva Iosif (ROM) 226,500
5. Simon ‘Schnibl0r’ Munz (GER) 347,000
6. Guillame Darcourt (FRA) 587,000
7. Gheorghe Gradinaru (ROM) 118,000
8. Joseph Ebanks (USA) 407,500
9. Viktoria Szlasi (HUN) 153,000

Apart from bubble boy Carlos, notable names that bust in the latter stages include France’s Thomas Bichon, who went out in 12th and Argentina’s Jose Barbero who departed in 15th.

Here is the Main Event payouts so far and prize pool breakdown.
