WPT Five Diamonds: Esfandiari in some steps to the victory
The survivors among the 438 players in the starting field of the World Poker Tour Five Diamonds (WPT) still fight to succeed to Daniel Alaei. The tournament is a success not only because the turnout was quite high but a large crowd of well-known players also were also noticed. Indeed, Bellagio is going through an exceptional poker event at the moment. In the lead at the starting of Day 3, Antonio Esfandiari continues to lead the main event and sits still as chip leader after the third day of competition. In addition, he gained a large advantage by being the only player holder of a million chips. He is therefore the most qualified among the 54 remaining players to win the sacred and the famous first prize of $ 870,124.
This edition of the WPT Five Diamonds is also distinguished by the presence of a large number of major players in the field and they are still many to have surpassed the qualifying for Day 4 of competition to name Doug Lee (2nd in chips), Vanessa Rousso (3rd), Jonathan Little (11th), Sorel Mizzi (13th), Jeff Shulman, Andrew Robl, Marco Traniello and the legendary Doyle Brunson who is currently in 12th place. The championship promises to be very exciting because these stars of the game will attempt to remove Esfandiari from his place. Pending the outcome of the tournament, "The Magician" can already be commended for this excellent course. Note that renowned players such as Phil Ivey, John Juanda, Johnny Chan and Justin Young were already eliminated.
