Who knows what they’ll show during tonight’s 2008 WSOP Main Event broadcast, but emotions were running high for Chino Rheem after he suffered
So when a reporter asked how he was feeling after the bust, let’s just say he felt like "poo-poo" and the question itself he thought was "making love" "not too intelligently."

Over 6,800 players. 4 months. 1 hostage crisis. The 2008 WSOP Main Event is finally heads-up.
More information to come, but it’s going to be Ivan Demidov (79,500,000) vs. Peter Eastgate (57,725,000).
No real shocker as these two looked the best and got the cards all day.
More to come…

Well, it was still a sick call.
When we picked "David" Chino Rheem to make a deep run in the 2008 WSOP Main Event, most people (like Andrew Feldman at ESPN.com) thought, "who"?
6,800+ eliminations later, Chino, the most experienced pro in the field, was knocked out of the 2008 WSOP Main Event in seventh place. Chino’s A-K was sucked out on by Peter Eastgate‘s A-Q.
But thanks for making us look smarter than we really are, Chino.
Actually, we’re pretty f’in smart, so thanks for validating that.
At the dinner break, the chip stacks are: Ivan Demidov 30,725,000, Peter Eastgate 27,175,000, the back in contention Dennis Phillips 26,950,000, Ylon Schwartz 20,475,000, Scott Montgomery 20,300,000, and Darus Suharto 10,600,000.

Having clung on to a "redunkulous" short-stack for the entire final table without ever doubling up, Kelly Kim finally went all-in and all out of the 2008 WSOP Main Event.
Having nitted it though for over 50 hands and watching Craig Marquis bow out before him, Kim was able to earn an extra $386k or so.
Chino Rheem is now the short-stack with 2,900,000. Dennis Phillips is making a comeback with 11,550,000.

Hey Russ, go screw yourself.
We are some spite-loving mofo’s at Wicked Chops Poker. So even better than NOT including Russ Hamilton‘s WSOP championship banner in the Penn & Teller theater for today’s final table is including it–but sticking it behind the escalators. It’s like a big middle finger to a big cheating slimeball.
Nice work, Jeffrey Pollack or whoever did that.
Great job by Pokerati for noticing it. See their full photo dump here.
