It was pretty apparent from the outset that Monday’s action at the 2011 WPT Foxwoods World Poker Finals was not going to last very long, as the eight remaining players needed to play down to the televised final table of six. With former champions like Jonathan Little and Andy Frankenberger, as well as top tournament pros Christian Harder and Chris Klodnicki still in contention, the 2011 version of the WPT World Poker Finals final table promised to be a good one.
Unfortunately for two of the aforementioned players the televised final table was not meant to be, as two-time WPT Champion and 2007 Player of the Year Jonathan Little was the first player eliminated, followed by Chris Klodnicki. Frankenberger did manage to make it to the TV final table, but will do so as the short-stack, as the 2010 WPT Player of the Year couldn’t get anything going during the abbreviated session on Monday.
The big winner on Monday was Steve Brackesy, who managed to end the day as the chip-leader, overtaking Christian Harder who started the session as the chip-leader. Here is a look at the chip counts and seating assignments for the final six players in the tournament:
Seat 1. Steven Brackesy - 1,807,000 (112 BBs)
Seat 2. Daniel Santoro - 1,163,000 (72 BBs)
Seat 3. Christian Harder - 1,293,000 (80 BBs)
Seat 4. Bob Carbone - 588,000 (36 BBs)
Seat 5. Andy Frankenberger - 374,000 (23 BBs)
Seat 6. Eli Berg - 496,000 (31 BBs)
