William Tonking, Dan Sindelar, Andoni Larrabe, Billy Pappas Out at WSOP Final Table
It’s “Good Bye” Bruno Politano, Dan Sinclair, Andoni Larrabe, Billy Pappas and William Tonking at this year’s World Series of Poker Final Table. All four were eliminated overnight and into the early morning hours of Tuesday following the first elimination of Mark Newhouse.
Newhouse, who got eliminated in ninth place at last year’s Final Table, left with $730,725.
Brazil’s Bruno Politano finished in 8th place and is the last of the 2014 WSOP cashouts before awarding $1 million and up. He walked away with $947,172.
Dan Sindelar was just eliminated from the 2014 Main Event. He finished in 7th place and walked away with a cool $1,236,084.
"I'm disappointed, of course, but it was quite an experience for me," Sindelar confided afterward. "I was kinda distracted by all the television breaks. I couldn't really focus because of that."
Sindelar was speaking of the ESPN coverage which does tend to change the dynamics of the final table and how hands are sometimes played out.
Andoni Larrabe left with $1,622,471 after finishing in 6th place while Billy Pappas (short for Pappaconstantinou) ended his 2014 WSOP Final run with a sweet $2,143,794 and 5th place finish.
"This was a real rush for me just to be here," Pappas said. "I wouldn't change anything. Sure, I would loved to have won. But this whole year for me has been amazing. I can't wait to come back again."
Just minutes before 4 am Las Vegas time, William Tonking bid farewell at 4th place, which earned him $2,849,763.
