Eli's Just Going To Have To Accept It...
While the WSOP.com team covering this Event #21 $10,000 Omaha H/L 8 or Better Championship is locked and focuses on this event, we have to admit that we've been checking the coverage from the $10,000 Razz Championship which is currently playing towards a champion in 'The Mothership'.
It seems as though some of the players in today's field are also keeping tabs on that final table, as Phil Hellmuth is going for his 14th overall bracelet and second World Series of Poker Razz title.
"You know what Eli, you're just going to have to accept it." Mike 'The Mouth' Matusow says as he walks towards Eli Elezra's table.
"Accept what?" Elezra replies.
"That right now, Phil Hellmuth is the best Razz player." he says, while Eli can hardly control his laughter.
Matusow might be serious, no one can really tell, but he says, "The results speak for himself. He won a bracelet two years ago and almost did last year and now..." Matusow turns to the final table streaming area where Hellmuth is currently the chip leader.
Elezra sends Matusow away from the table, clearly not wanting to crown the 'Poker Brat' the 'King of Razz' just yet.
Maybe because Razz is a game that Elezra clearly feels confident in himself, after final tabling the Event #9 $1,500 Razz tournament earlier this series.
Either way, both Elezra and Matusow will look to get to that final table area in this $10,000 Omaha H/L 8 or Better Championship, an event that they've both had immense success in at past World Series.
