The Dapper Marcel Luske

Marcel Luske, immaculately dressed in a light tan suit, just scooped a pot from Tommy Hufnagle. Luske's six-high straight was good for the high and the low.

Luske is our current chip leader with 56,000. David Sklansky is hot on his heels with 54,000.

Ah . . . Youth

WSOP Media Director Nolan Dalla just announced to the players in the Amazon Room that 21-year old James Mackey had won his first bracelet in the $5,000 no-limit hold'em event.

Upon hearing this,Mike Matusow, who never has anything to say, quipped to his table "I didn't know what poker WAS when I was 21! I had $2.50 in my pocket!"

Two Ladies Left

On our final eight tables of the $3K stud hi-lo World Championship, only two women remain in contention. Susan Chi, who cashed the $1K stud hi-lo event at last year's WSOP has 27,000 in chips and Barbara Lewis, a Vegas local who finished 12th in the $5K stud World Championship last week has 23,000.

Ante: 300

Players Not Loving the Structure

Just as it was announced that the betting limits were going up to 1,500-3,000 Mike Matusow popped out of his seat.

"I have double the average stack and that's only 12 bets!" he shouted to anyone who would listen.

Other players have been grumbling all afternoon about how short everyone's stacks are relative to the antes and limits.

"This is the worst structure I've seen in poker" lamented Scotty Nguyen.
