Way’s WSOP Coverage Could Be Better

ESPN’s latest WSOP coverage was pretty good. Here’s my list of how to make it better:

Jc “Just Call” Tran is really still in the tournament (let’s hope he won his last longest).

Gavin Smith should wear this banana costume (non-paid link) while sweating his PokerRoad compadre, Joe Sebok.

Speaking of Sebok… more coverage of the guy [...]

2009 WSOP Main Event Mixes With 90210

Steve Sanders is still in the 2009 WSOP Main Event.  Is that the same Steve Sanders who drove a Corvette and was in love with Kelly Taylor?  Probably not since the 90210 Sander’s real name was Ian Ziering.  But if the WSOP Steve Sanders wins then he should be called Steve “90210″ Sanders. 
Nonetheless, it’s still [...]

2009 WSOP Bracelets

I’ve been busy getting back to basics so I’m out of the 2009 WSOP loop, so please… fill me in.  What year is it anyway?  Is it the Year of the Tweet?  Whatever the year of is… I’m excited to see some pros winning additional bracelets… Phil Ivey, Brandon Cantu and of course… Jeff Lisandro who has been [...]

My 2009 WSOP Unedited Vent

For those of you who are asking… here’s an uninteresting, unedited, with typos WSOP update on my M.I.A. WSOP. 
IMHO, the short version:
Despite recent accusations, no, I’m not a compulsive gambler (I will be using Angie Tempura’s infamous line as my reaction.  See video below.).  It is sad there are people whose rage and fear make half-truths more appealing in the attempt [...]

WSOP Final Tables to Watch

Yet, more reasons I should be working in Vegas right now… WSOP Event 25 Omaha Stud 8/0 is one I should be watching.  Only 14 players remain and my friends Eric Buchman and Steve Wong  are two of them.  Of course, Phil Ivey, Dutch Boyd, Carlos Mortensen and Chad Brown aren’t too shabby themselves.  In theory, this [...]

Three-Way Tie = Poker Studs

It’s no surprise Wicked Chops Poker made Bluff Magazine’s ”Poker’s Power 20” this month. Apparently, followers of the popular poker site believe… a day of poker news without WCP is like a day without sunshine.  After all, what would loyal readers do without the Friday Night Parting Shot, blurry poker pro photos overpowered by sharp background breasts, clever phrases like “A Woman”,  Ginger sightings or simply policing them as ”sexy pigs” or better, [...]

Peter Eastgate Wins WSOP and Nolan Dalla Statistics

 Peter Eastgate turned the wheel towards the WSOP Kingdom early this morning making him the youngest winner in history.  While Ivan Demidov finished second he still took home several meeellion dollars. 
Both Eastgate and Demidov seem to have learned from previous winners how to not-look-like-an-ass-at-the-final-table, as both seemed to be humble.  However, this year the November [...]

WSOP Final Table + Nine Poker Players = Cash

New Orleans Winter Bayou Poker Challenge

In need of some good times and some poque?  Then head on over to New Orleans December 1 – 10th, as the WSOP New Orleans Winter Bayou Poker Challenge will be underway.  That could be the longest tournament name in the history of poker.  But who cares? And anyway, everyone knows New Orleans, poker and [...]
