Aldridge's Afternoon

Ken Aldridge

As the field for our event shrinks, we are having to move through several of the tables for Event #56 (the $2,500 no-limit hold'em event) to get to our remaining players.

At one of those tables sits Ken Aldridge, whom you may recall we reported earlier had busted from our event. He was just telling his table in Event #56 about his experience earlier this afternoon.

"I really wanted to play this one," he said with a grin right after winning a pot. "I had run up to 15,000 in the $1K, but I knew I wanted to play this, so I got it in. Had an overpair to the board, he had flopped a set...." And that was that.

He looks like he's off to a good start in Event #56, too. Of course, if he busts there, there's only one more event left in the WSOP. The Big One.
