Greg "Fossil Man" Raymer Busted from 2005 WSOP:

While I was personally hoping to see Fossil Man repeat his 2004 success at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) this year, Greg was busted from the 2005 WSOP yesterday and ended up in 25th place overall.

Greg's run in the Main event of the WSOP during the past two years has been nothing short of amazing. Last year he bested: 2576 people and this year he outplayed: 5594 people.

During Day 6 of the 2005 World Series of Poker Main event, the following people have been busted:
