Going to watch the wsop final 3 players at 9pm! .. should be good.. on espn! tonight! I am going to cheer for Pius Heinz who has 107,800. But Ben Lamb will probably win (luckbox, along with great player). I think it will be better for online poker at its current state if a European wins! However it may be good for the future of American poker (both live and online) if Ben Lamb wins! Either way i am going to watch it! Should make for a good heads up match if Lamb and Heinz go heads up! 3 LEFT i

Ok so it’s that time of year. The 2011 WSOP is well under way. I wanted to write a blog posting to give you guys a little prep for Vegas Poker during the WSOP. I have posted a simular post a year ago, but here it is again! Tournaments – Of course the WSOP has great tournaments.  Everyone is looking to get that bracelet. However for most this is just a dream. The wsop has improved the blind structures of all the NL events. As of last year you now get triple the buy-in

So apparently they handcuffed this guy from Montreal yesterday at West Palm Beach Kennel Club because he entered the ladies event. They said he couldn't play. After banter back and forth with security the cops came and handcuffed the guy and took him out of the poker room. It was a house rule that no men can enter the ladies event. I thought guys enter ladies events in vegas at the wsop all the time! In other news .. I played the $1600 main and busted on day 2 before dinner time! Cheers.Errol
