World Series of Poker Main Event: Redmond Lee Last Brit Standing in the Main Event

July 17 2010, Barry Carter

In 24 hours time we will know who has made it to the holy land known as the November Nine. A few years ago it was all about the bracelet but with the addition of the 3 month final table delay the nine players who find themselves at the main event final table enjoy endorsements and attention that can potentially set them up for life no matter who wins the title.

We are down to 27 in the main event and the year of the Brits is still going strong as we have a player still in the mix. Redmond Lee has been up with the bigger stacks for the last few days but right now he is one of the shorter stacks with 3.3 million. His uphill battle is increased by the fact that many big names including David Baker, Scott Clements, Michael Mizrachi, Adam Levy and Johnny Lodden still left in the mix.

So what do we know about Redmond Lee? Not much right now, in fact the only thing I can tell you about him right now is that I think I played against him at GUKPT Manchester a few years ago and he seemed a really nice guy. He goes by the name HimClip85 online and has come 2nd in an FTOPS event and the Sunday Million. This is if he is indeed the same guy I am thinking about. He is already guaranteed $317,161 and one thing is for sure we will know a hell of a lot more about him by tomorrow should he make the final.

He's one of the 5 or so barely competent players on the Sky Poker Netork. They are going nuts from him over on their forum at the moment.
