WSOP LIMIT

shannon elizabethIf there was one event I wanted to play the most it was the $1500 Limit tournament which started yesterday.  I prefer pot limit and no limit for cash games, but for tournaments… limit is probably my favorite.  And even though I’m not playing… I was happy to see Bill Chen, Justin Bonomo, Richard Brodie, Noah Boeken and Bill Seber among the chip leaders going into Day Two.  Also heading into Day Two is Barry Greenstein and Shannon Elizabeth.

The 2008 WSOP Main Event has officially exceeded last year’s number by at least 500.  Playing poker today… Forrest Griffin (photo below) may look like he had a bad beat but you should see the other guy.  Apparently, Griffin won the UFC fight last night… but that’s hearsay. Talk about a hangover.

Keep moving to see photos of Phil Laak and Shannon Elizabeth as she views her opponents at the WSOP.
