US American Ronald Lee (on left) leads late on Day 4 of the 2010 WSOP Europe main event.

ESPN is streaming the final two days of the 2010 WSOP Europe online at ESPN3.com (Watch Here). The broadcast is on a five-hour delay, which means hole card can be displayed.

It also means that you can see Phil Ivey right now at the featured table before he busts in the middle of Day 4 play. The 8-time WSOP bracelet winner was eventually eliminated in 19th place. Viktor “isildur1″ Blom inevitably flamed out as well, finishing in 16th.

Play started today with 27 players and they’ll play down to the final table tonight. Last we looked at the live action, they were down to the unofficial final table with 10 players left. US American Ronald Lee currently leads the way with just over 1.8 mil in chips. Proof that good things happen to guys who use hot girls like Victoria Moore to advertise their online poker site, Victory Poker CEO Dan Fleyshman is stacked second with 1.78 mil. Other notables still making a run at the final table include Roland de Wolfe (1.3 mil), Nicolas Levi (786k) and Brian Powell (440k).

Chip counts here.

2010 WSOP Europe Main Event Update: Phil Ivey, isildur1 Among Chip Leaders

by Wicked Chops Entity on 9.26.2010 in Poker Tournaments | no comments

isildur1 is making a run at a $1M first place prize which will evaporate in cash games online within two days.

Because they hold the tournament in a venue the size of a two-bedroom apartment*, only 22 remain at the end of Day 3 of the 2010 WSOP Europe Main Event.

Among the big stacks are an amazingly not-flamed-out-yet-fifth-overall Viktor ‘isildur1′ Blom (705,000), and sixth-overall-I’m-gonna-show-you-what-the-fuck-is-up-Mr.-Dwyte-Pilgrim Phil Ivey at 657,000.

They trail overall chip leader Ronald Lee at 947,000.

Other notables remaining include Hoyt Corkins (566,000), Barney Boatman (379,000), Victory Poker CEO Dan Fleyshman (336,000), Greg Mueller (151,000), and Roland de Wolfe (113,000).

* Bit of an exaggeration. It’s the size of a three bedroom, two bath apartment.

Viktor ‘isildur1′ Blom Leads 2010 WSOP Europe Main Event

by Wicked Chops Entity on 9.25.2010 in Poker Tournaments | 3 comments

Watch Who Is ISILDUR1? on RawVegas.tv

Day 2 is in the book at the 2010 WSOP Europe Main Event. And who ended the day as chipleader?

Viktor Blom. That’s right, isildur1.

Now while Blom has the potential to blow up and lose his entire stack in about three hands, if he were to go deep, it would obviously be a huge story. Hopefully at some point over the next few days someone actually, 1) you know, gets an interview with him and 2) asks him if he’s isildur1 already.

Lots of big named big stacks. Phil Ivey is sixth overall with 289,300. Other notables include Nick Schulman (281,000), Katy, TX Dave Baker (250,000), Victory Poker CEO Dan Fleyshman (243,000), Barry Greenstein (190,000), [..........] (177,000), Daniel Negreanu (156,000), and Huck Seed (147,600).

About 65 remain (still waiting official word). Get full chip counts here. Watch the above video for a more innocent time when we didn’t know who isildur1 was.
