/ Editor / 08 September 2007 / Leave a Comment

Thomas "Buzzer" Bihl will attempt to make history today and win the first World Series of Poker bracelet ever awarded outside Las Vegas.

The final table of eight players for the £2,500 HORSE event harkens back to World Series days of old when the last few players were the usual suspects- all playing at the very top of their game.

There are nine World Series of Poker bracelets between the last eight players.

Seat 1: Jennifer Harman - 204,000
Seat 2: Gary Jones - 30,000
Seat 3: Joe Beevers - 74,500
Seat 4: Kirk Morrison - 172,500
Seat 5: Thomas Bihl - 130,500
Seat 6: Yuval Bronshtein - 185,500
Seat 7: Alex Kravchenko - 114,500
Seat 8: Chris Ferguson - 142,500

"It's not the easiest field I will ever face but I'm so happy to get this far in a field of 104 of the best players in the world, "said Buzzer.

"I think I have every chance now. A few key pots and I could be the first WSOP Europe bracelet winner."

Betfair's Head of Poker Ben Fried said, "To have one of our pros as the winner of the first bracelet would be fantastic. Buzzer has gone deep in many tournaments but this field is the gold standard of poker. He has already proven he is a force to be reckoned with."
