Jake Cody Delivered Another Good Day At WPT World Championship

World Poker Tour LogoAt major poker events, you can only take things one hand at a time and you can only really look forward to a single day at a time. Just because you have a brilliant day on Day 2 of a poker tournament is no guarantee that Day 3 is going to follow in the same manner. Sometimes a fresh start is what some players require to change their fortunes whereas sometimes a break in proceedings can do a lot to derail the success that a poker player is having. Some players are able to bring a level of consistency that sees them through the various days of a poker tournament without any great trouble but for others, it is a bit more difficult.

Jake Cody seemed to bring his good form from Day 2 of the World Poker Tour World Championship into the third day of the event. The Rochdale born poker player knows that there are a lot of expectations being placed upon him for this event but all you can do is keep your head down and keep on playing poker in the right manner. There is still a long way to go in this tournament but Jake is certainly going about things in the correct fashion.

Poker players falling by the wayside

Day 3 may not have been as successful as Day 2 was but when the number of poker players fall, surviving the cut is all you can really look for. 67 poker players made it back to the Bellagio and by the end of the day; this had been chopped down to 24 poker players. The closing stack of 365,000 for Jake Cody may have seen him slip out of the top 10 with regards to chips but as we all know, this is a situation that can change very quickly.

Jake CodyThe money bubble is at the 15th position so this is obviously the first target for Cody to aim for. You don’t only want to think about the money, you should always be able to look higher but sometimes getting to this level is the thing that can allow players to relax a little. Battling so far in a tournament only to get no financial return to show for it can be tough so at least knowing you have some money in your pocket can be of benefit.

Things may have got a little gloomier for Jake Cody on Day 3 of the WPT World Championship at the Bellagio but the fact that he remains hanging on in there is definitely something to be proud of. The money places are close by so he just needs to cling on in there for a little while longer.
