* The newest from the WSOP because the Main Event begins* Luke "lb6121" Schwartz wins the Sunday Million
The WSOP Main Event began on Saturday, because of this our Blog coverage is in full flow. Our reporters, who we let out to report free range from the Rio tournament room, are already transcribing what it's love to participate in the sort of jamboree.
The result's some already great writing (Brad Willis and Howard Swains seldom require a run up), as any of the links on our WSOP coverage page prove.
They've got all of it covered - from marriage proposals to men plugged into electronic devices. Plus the standard shattered dreams. Take a look.
Meanwhile the Sunday Majors played on as usual. There might be excitement and drama in Las Vegas right now, however the Sunday Million remains that one steady beacon for the weekend.
And as ever it produced an accomplished winner within the type of British pro Luke "lb6121" Schwartz. He picked up $130,000 for the win, which comes nearly ten years after a primary big score within the Sunday Million which essentially set him up as a high stakes player.
Kristin Bihr puts it significantly better than that during her report, that is worth a read by clicking here. Meanwhile the entire result's below:
