Event 41 – Final Table – Binger Stinging
1 year ago
We’re finally starting to see some cracks in Nick Binger’s seemingly impenetrable armor. For the first time of the night it seems like victory is not assured for brother Binger. Jonathan Tamayo, in particular, has been winning important pots left and right and suddenly is in great shape to potentially win this tournament.
Great Call from Frank Gary
Frank Gary played one of the most important hands of his tournament during a Limit portion. In the hand Nick Binger three-barreled a board of 7
7
3
T
6 and sent Gary deep into the tank when he bet the river. There was approximately $280,000 in the pot and Gary had considerably less than that behind.
Gary thought for several minutes before finally announcing a call and flipping over K-X. Apparently King-high was enough to take the pot as Binger threw his hand into the muck.
Tricky Tamayo
Limit poker seems to be Nick Binger’s weaker game, at least at this final table. During the most recent Limit portion all three remaining players saw a flop of A T 9. Tamayo bet, Gary called but Binger re-raised. Both players called and the turn came 2 and once again Binger bet. Tamayo called but Gary folded. The river fell 2 and both Binger and Tamayo checked.
Tamayo flipped over T 7 and Binger mucked. Tamayo was up to approximately $700,000 after the hand while Binger is now hovering around the $1 million mark. It seems that Binger’s overpowering aggression is starting to get the best of him.

Event 41 – Final Table – Bracelet within Sight, Binger Still Leading
1 year ago
We’re down to three-handed play at the final table of Event 41 and it would be a huge surprise if Nick Binger doesn’t walk away with some wrist-candy before the day is done.
Here’s a look at the other happenings in the last hour of Event 41:
Nick Binger wrecks Chris Rentes (Fourth)
And so the Nick Binger swath of destruction continues. In the latest bustification Chris Rentes moved all-in for $50,000. Binger flipped over 7 2 (!) to Rentes’ 6 5. The board came K J 4 T Q to give Binger his fifth elimination of this final table.
Binger Falters?
Jonathan Tamayo is proving to be the biggest thorn for Nick Binger at this final table. Tamayo is the only player that seems to be willing to trade blows with Binger. Considering Binger’s chip stack Tamayo is walking a very fine line right now but has won several pots off Binger to balance the chips stacks. Frank Gary, on the other hand, is holding steady and playing a conservative game thus far.
There’s Something About Chip Counts
Nick Binger is still dominating the final table but his chip-lead has diminished somewhat over the last hour of play. Here are the chip counts (courtesy of www.worldseriesofpoker):
| 1. Nick Binger | $1.3 million |
| 2. Jonathan Tamayo | $474,000 |
| 3. Frank Gary | $420,000 |
