Esposito, Ramdin Renew Rivalry
Level 25
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
WSOP bracelet winner John Esposito and WPT champion Victor Ramdin are in a dead heat, each with 1.2 million chips. Esposito stood up to report to PokerNews about an earlier hand that saw Esposito take some of Ramdin's stack with a gutshot straight.
Ramdin heard this going on from the next table and was having none of it, telling Esposito to sit back down and pay attention to his hand. This friendly banter fits right in with the overall feel of this event on Day 3, with plenty of good-natured needling going on between players at the remaining tables.
