Go Mihai Go!

Mihai is still doing his best at dominating Multi table tournaments. The World Series of Poker is happening right now and Mihai Manole is currently 2nd in Event #7 ($2000 NLHE) with only 9 people remaining!

The final table starts tonight and we are wishing him the best at capturing his first WSOP Bracelet, with many more to come!

I will keep you posted on his progress as he continues to dominate the poker tournaments in Vegas :)

Mihai Manole Eliminated in 5th place ($155,013)

Theo Tran raised to 60,000 from under the gun and the action folded around to Mihai Manole who reraised to 160,000 from the small blind. Tran made the call and the flop came 853. Manole bet 150,000 and Tran raised to 350,000. Manole reraised all in and Tran made a quick call. Manole turned over A8 for top pair, top kicker while Tran showed 55 for middle set. The turn brought the 10 and Manole was drawing dead to an inconsequential river card (Q). Mihai Manole was eliminated in 5th place ($155,013) while chip leader Theo Tran raked what was surely the biggest pot of the night thus far.

Congrats Mihai on doing so well in the WSOP so far! We look forward to seeing how you do in the next events!
