They’ve been tournament grinders such as Cord Garcia and Ben Keeline, and Macau cash game regulars like South Korea's Sejin Park. Thomas Pomponio and Roberly Felicio did it as amateurs. There’s even been a past bracelet winner in last year’s champion Anatolii Zyrin.
By the end of today, one of seven players who have grinded their way past a massive field of 13,565 entries in Event #51: $400 Colossus No-Limit Hold’em will join this list and be able to call himself the Colossus champion.
Sam Laskowitz, Paul Hizer, Jordan Pelon, Jeff Loiacono, Luong Quach, Anthony Ruttler, and James Scott are the seven names who will return to play at 4 p.m. local time today to determine a champion. Action will be streamed on PokerGo with a one-hour delay.
Lasowitz, the New York native with no reported live cashes, amassed a huge chip lead at the end of Day 3 and carries 206,500,000 into the final seven. Paul Hizer of Britain is in second place with 132,000,000. Combined, they have 62 percent of the chips in play.
The Frenchman Pelon, who was the chip leader for much of Day 3 (and even Day 2) before falling back in a clash against Laskowitz, is coming back with 68,000,000. Loiacono, with 12 WSOP cashes dating back to 2013 but no final tables before this event, has 56,000,000, while Quach (38,500,000), Ruttler (32,000,000), and Scott (13,500,000) each have fewer than 10 big blinds.

In the mid 1980’s, women were considered no factor in the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event, and other than the famous rounder and professional gambler Thomas “Amarillo Slim” Preston, poker players rarely made headlines in the mainstream press. That all changed when Wendeen Eolis became the first woman to cash at poker’s “Big Dance.”
In the 1986 WSOP Main Event, Eolis battled some of the best players in the world, including Amarillo Slim, in a field of 141 runners. She was on her way to a 25th-place finish for a $10,000, return on her buy-in, and permanent bragging rights as the first woman in history to cash in the WSOP Main Event.
Eolis attributes her 1986 WSOP performance to a year of poker tutoring from one of the best, a “relatively” conservative game plan, and cooperative cards. She told PokerNews, “Even today, women can win more by bluffing less than men.”
