Wsop Event 30 Final Result

6/20/10 – Event 30 – the $1,500 buy-in No-limit Hold’em contest has sent another WSOP bracelet to the United Kingdom – the fourth so far in this 2010 series which has just passed the halfway mark.
 
A three hour heads up between Brit player Mike Ellis and Christopher Gonzales decided an event that attracted an entry field of 2,394 players, many of them international aces. It was an exciting contest with impressive skills on display from both players, but in the end the British player prevailed in the early hours of the morning Saturday to collect the bracelet and the main prize of $581,851.
 
Earlier in the event 21 players started the final day, which proved to be long and arduous – all cashing but all with their eyes on the really big money in the main prize.
 
For Ellis it was his first bracelet, and his biggest win yet, although he is no stranger to WSOP cashes or tournament success. In 2007 he won the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour Grand Final, and he has five World Series cashes to his credit
 
Christopher Gonzales’s second placing gave him a payday of $360,906.
