Thor No More

Thor Hansen - Original Scandie
Thor Hansen - Original Scandie
Another table has broken, and from an initial 191 runners who started today with hopes of the first WSOPE bracelet adorning their wrists, 134 are still competing through level four. Thor Hansen is one of those out in the last 10 minutes, and literally while attaching said photo of the Norwegian poker legend, another exit was occurring two seats along from him - that of Ed Rogers, whose {A-?} {K-?} was no good all in preflop against {A-?} {A-?} as so often is the case.

Some counts from table ex-Hansen (also broken during the time it took to type this, and I'm using all ten fingers - the pace has really picked up):

Will Brewin - 5,900
Luis Nunes - 3,200
Jonathan Weekes - 7,225
Yevgeniy Timoshenko - 12,600
Simeon Tsonev - 7,350
