ERIC BALDWIN TAKES DOWN 2009 WSOP EVENT #34


It had to happen sooner or later, another Baldwin winning a WSOP gold bracelet. I don’t know if the newest WSOP Champion, Eric Baldwin, has any ties to the Hollywood Baldwins; but, if the movie bunch can act as well as Eric can play poker they’re destined to win an Academy Award.
The young Mr. Baldwin defeated a 2,095 player field of entrants that was liberally salted with an abundance of strong professionals. For his feat he will now be sporting a gold and diamond WSOP bracelet and making a $521,932 deposit in his bank account.
Second place went to a very tough Jonas Klausen along with $322,371 in cash. Jonas played tough all day giving the impression he could beat anything but the cards. James Taylor grabbed the third spot and pocketed $213,046 for his fine showing.
