Slow play absent of bust out dominates first hour of WSOP Main Event Final Table

After an hour of play and 27 hands, Robert Salaburu of San Antonio, Texas has had the biggest jump, moving from seventh place to third place in the chip count.

Chip leader Jesse Sylvia of Las Vegas remains in the lead with 43.69 million in chips. Andras Koroknai of Hungary is still second with 25.92 million. Salaburu has 24.615 million.

Play has been slow going.

“It’s slower than I expected,” said Sylvia during a 15-minute break.
