Ana Marquez did a thesis on what now?

Hint, it includes the name Chris Moneymaker.

Recap: Jamie Shaevel’s bid for WSOP Main Event glory ended Tuesday with a seventh place finish and a $1.5 million payout.

About 45 minutes into the session, he raised nearly all his chips with king-six of hearts and was called by Lucas Jumalon holding king-ten. The board ran dry for Shaevel, and that was that.

😎 Ivor Parker has just become GGPoker’s full-time ambassador at age 100.

According to F5Poker, that makes him the world’s oldest paid professional poker player.

He started playing in 1940 at a pub in Boston, Lincolnshire and says he’s played all over the world, especially during the war. Parker claims poker today is far more strategic than when he began and credits the game for keeping him sharp.

Angela Martin, head of marketing at GGPoker, said Parker “perfectly embodies what the brand loves about the game.” Leah Hauer called playing with him “incredibly inspiring.” GGPoker is backing more than 50 festivals a year across most of Grosvenor’s poker rooms, with various rewards for qualifiers.

His run ended in sixth, but at least he gets to start his new job with a $1.75 million consolation prize. Current chip leader, Lucas Jumalon, sent him packing after a flush draw fizzled.

Recap: Han Feng finishes fifth at the WSOP Main Event.

It was a bad beat for the ages for Feng.

History prefers the chip leader, but variance is always lurking.

Lucas Jumalon heads into the WSOP Main Event finale with a chip lead that would make even Eastgate nod in approval. According to PokerNews, every player with the lead at this stage has gone on to win. But hey, there is always a first time for everything, right?
