2006 WSOP Main Event...

Is Alan Cunningham the only "big name" left? I think he is.

With only 46 players left, we are WAY ahead of schedule... Crazy.

i thought it was pretty cool to see that richard gryko the actor went out in 50th place. and i am pretty sure the other big name out there is humberto brenes, then agasin he might have already busted out.

Jeffery Lisandro and Prahlad Friedman are left as well...

yes it is way ahead of schedule...

they said its been alot of allin preflop coin flip situations, so people are just pushing in and praying, not really much poker playing from what I hear.

[Reel Deal]

Not a "huge name" but Humberto Brenes is still in it.

[Talking Poker]

I still can't believe how far ahead of schedule they are... They got down to 27 while I was playing last night - BEFORE out dinner break, as I recall. That's a full day and a half ahead of schedule. I heard they may play to 9 today and give the players off tomorrow, but that was still undecided when I left. With the FT being PPV, I don't see them changing it, and the off day makes the most sense. Make sure everyone is well rested.

Prahlad Friedman has just been busted 21st...

Allen Cunningham is 2nd in chips with 13 million... I think he has a real chance of winning the whole thing.

I would love to see a pro win this event to tell you the truth.

[Talking Poker]

Me too.... And no one can say anything bad about Alan, so I'm rooting for him. He's a bit quieter than some of our recent Main Event winners, but I think he'd make an excellent chamption.
