If this hasn't been created already I thought it would be nice for one common thread for all p5er's who will be participating in the 2012 WSOP.
It's always fun to rail friends as well as pro's and well known p5er's, so feel use this thread for any updates about yourselves or your buddies.

For me personally, I'll be heading to Vegas on 6/8 with my boy Brayza21 and playing events #19 and #21 (hopefully i'll be unable to play #21 for obvious reasons) and depending on my results that weekend I'lll decide my plans for the rest of the summer.

Good luck to all who are participating this year and looking forward to some updates/sweats. Let's bring some more bracelets to the P5's community !

Which events do they livestream? I remember watching last year's players championship and main event live through the xbox. Is it possible to catch anything else?

[MYBLUEDOG]

they will be live streaming final tables.

Follow WSOP on twitter to see when they are on

[BIGSLICKLEV]

Pokernews also has pretty solid updates between their own and the player's tweets, etc.

Congrats to bhanks11 for winning and to bazeman for getting second. A great start to the WSOP for P5ers.

Was there a deal made with 2or3 left in the 1500$ event 2?

[allani12 Trolls for fake prop bets]

Sick to have HU match with Andy Bloch and B.Greenstein for the 1500 stud bracelet

[JaySpo]

Grats to Bloch for the ship. Very well deserved.

Agreed here. He's been a pretty solid ambassador for the game on Capitol Hill and through his involvement with the PPA. So has Barry, for that matter. Great to see two well deserving guys in the spotlight.

[BIGSLICKLEV]

Seems there has been more controversy so far this year than in year's past. Subiime's HU situation (GL BTW), several people
re-entering on the same day of event #9, when that clearly wasn't allowed, food delivery not allowed at the tables, verbalizing bets at any final table, etc, etc..... THOUGHTS ?? Usually it runs pretty smooth, i'm surprised at the amount of issues they've had so far and so early on.......

[Dan Administrator]

Here's an article about Joseph "subiime" Cheong advancing to the finals of Event #6, $5K NLHE Mix-Max:

Agreed, go Tristan!

There's also a crazy final table ongoing in Event #9:

A couple of P5ers in the final nine of that one.

Pretty eventful day at the WSOP on Thursday with Tristan "Cre8ive" Wade making his fourth WSOP final table in two years and Brian "Stinger885" Hastings winning his first bracelet in his first WSOP Las Vegas cash:
