LAS VEGAS – The final table of the World Series of Poker’s main event is feeling more and more like a coronation.
Joe McKeehen, a 24-year-old poker pro from North Wales, Pa., remains the chip leader as the November Nine was reduced from six to three players on Monday night. When play resumes at 6 p.m. PT Tuesday at the Rio All-Suites Hotel & Casino (with ESPN’s broadcast starting at 9:30 p.m. ET/6:30 p.m. PT on a 30-minute delay per gaming regulations), he’ll be joined by Neil Blumenfield, a 61-year-old amateur who was laid off from his job shortly before the main event started in July, and Joshua Beckley, a 25-year-old poker pro from Marlton, N.
