Cohen agonized over his decision for several minutes before asking TD Toni Quedley if he could flip a coin to decide. “Of course!” Quedley replied.

PTP at WSOP: Main Event Day 3 Recap
Jul 13th
With Day 3 in the books here at the 2010 WSOP Main Event 4 PTP members have survived and will be coming back at Noon tomorrow when it is expected that the money bubble will be busted. At the end of the day the players were half way through level 13, which puts the blinds at 1,200/2,400 and antes of 300, costing the player 6,300 per orbit. The average stack is approximately 177k with the chip leader around 800k. The Amazon room can only hold 1,089 players on 121 tables, so the start of day 4 will not have all players in one room to start the day. Of the approximate 1,200 players that survived into day 4, four of them are PTP members. Here is a list of those players in order of most to least: Joe “draqq” Tosaky – 250k Tim “turnriva” Marsters – 239k Jesse “GridIronJesse” Herron – 160k Ken “terrellk11″ Terrell – 118.3k Join us tomorrow as I attempt to give more live updates from the floor on our players

These days, they’re mobbed in the halls. However, poker also has a habit of making unknowns out of celebrities.
