Only 14 players remain in the 2009 World Series of Poker Event #42 and despite starting with 412 players, that final list of 14 still holds many exciting names, including a few PokerRoaders.

PokerRoad Radio "B Team's," Jimmy Fricke is still alive and fighting in the $2,500 buy-in Mixed Event, although currently the short stack after a tough beat right at the end of yesterday's Day 2 play.  Joining Fricke today is Blair Rodman, Dario Alioto, Jon "Pearljammer" Turner and Blogfessional star Layne Flack, who currently is in a much better position sitting fifth in chips overall.

Day 3 of the #42 Mixed Event has already begun and is scheduled to play down to conclusion some time tonight.  Catch all the action by visiting www.worldseriesofpoker.com for live updates and chip counts powered by PokerNews and than log into the PokerRoad Nation to interact through Twitter with the fans, rail, and maybe even some of the pros that are playing.
