Former Main Event Champ Down

Tom McEvoy
Tom McEvoy

We're not sure of the hand, but Tom McEvoy, who had been nursing a short stack for quite some time, was recently eliminated. McEvoy won the Main Event back in 1983 and became the first person to win who had gained entry via a satellite.

McEvoy, who is among the leading candidates for the Poker Hall of Fame, also won the 2009 WSOP Champions Invitational; unfortunately, he will not become a two-time Main Event champion this year.
