Woolley Extinct
Bob Woolley was one of the feel-good stories of this Main Event, but he's not among those feeling good right now. Woolley was just eliminated in a pretty standard spot, but it's how he got here that's most notable.
Woolley, the "PokerGrump", was the lucky winner of Dan "jungleman12" Cates' freeroll Main Event raffle. That was the only favor Woolley would receive from the poker gods as his Day 1 table included Tom Schneider, Greg Raymer, Olivier Busquet, and David Chicotsky. Still, the Grump survived that table to bag up 8,325 chips.
Those were quickly lost this afternoon, though, as he open-shoved into the big blind's . A board full of blanks was all she wrote, and Woolley has been sent off early in the second day.
