This is Paul Cogliano��s first World Series of Poker final table and with just $22,204 in tournament winnings, this will be his biggest cash by far. We caught up with Cogliano while on break to see how it feels to be sitting on the ESPN stage.
PokerNews: How does it feel to be at your first 2014 WSOP final table?
I feel good. I don��t think I have made any big mistakes. I have been getting a bit lucky with the boards and the cards, but so far so good.
Has it been a tough final table?
I think it is getting tougher as it goes along. I think the better players made it to the final five.
Any key moments or key hands that put you on the road to the final table?
I bought in at 8:15 p.m., late. Doing that I think you make the most per hour and raises your chance of min-cashing.
At one point I was down to 4,800 chips and I was all in at about 8 percent to win. The hand went raise, call, a 3-bet by a very aggressive player, Dan Kelly. I had king-jack and I put my money in with 4:1 odds and one other person saw the flop. He bet, and it comes a 10-high flop with two clubs. I had the and he had aces. I ended up winning that and just kind of kept rolling.
Are you feeling confident in your play?
Yeah, I'm feeling confident. I usually do.
