A Pause for Some Applause

We only managed to get a couple of hands in here before play has been paused for the WSOP bracelet ceremony. For the second straight day, the national anthem of Germany is being played as Jorg Piesert is being recognized for winning Event No. 52, the $3,000 Triple Chance No-Limit Hold'em event.

Also being recognized today is David Halpern (U.S.) for winning Event No. 53, the $1,500 Seven Card Stud Hi/Lo 8-Or-Better event.

No ceremony today for David Bach (U.S.), who just a few short hours ago finally won Event No. 49, the $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. event. Perhaps they're letting him get some much deserved sleep for now.
