Perry Green Looking for Bracelet #4!
Just 14 players have made it to Day 3 of Event #31 $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha Eight-or-Better, and what an eclectic mix it is. Leading the way is Perry Green, who knows plenty about World Series of Poker gold. Green is the proud owner of three bracelets, though he hasn��t won one since 1979. Well Green is our chip leader today with 491,000.
Not far behind is Marco Johnson (475,000). Also known as ��Crazy Marco�� online, Johnson has made four WSOP final tables, and has two runner-up finishes. He will be looking to get that elusive first bracelet. The player in third knows plenty about WSOP gold, but she doesn��t have some for her wrist yet. Loni Harwood (444,000) is a WSOP Circuit grinder who has already won two Circuit rings, and has logged her first two WSOP cashes earlier this summer.
Further down the leaderboard, we have two bracelet winners: Barry Greenstein (287,000) and Eric Rodawig (212,000). Greenstein has won three bracelets, but it��s been five years since he won one. Rodawig won the 2011 $10,000 Seven-Card Stud Hi-Lo Championship for $442,183. This was the second of Phil Hellmuth��s unforgettable three runner-up finishes at the 2011 World Series.
The last notable in the field is Andy Seth, who is our second shortest stack with 168,000. Seth has registered a runner-up finish in both a WSOP and WPT event, and almost $1.5 million in career live earnings.
These players and the rest of the field will be getting underway in just under an hour.
