Remants of the 2008 WSOP

Although poker media left the 2008 WSOP over a month ago… Pokerati Dan has finally posted the Tao of Pokerati podcast (Episode 33).  I’m interviewed in this episode by Dan and Dr. Pauly but failed to answer their question.  Although, I’m not sure I was ever officially interviewed or asked a question (to understand why [...]

Poker Chicks on WPT

Tonight’s WPT episode will air the final six ladies of the WPT Ladies Championship on GSN.  This event caused a stir when a few players were upset they learned a portion of the buy-in would be donated to the Susan G.

My friend and French poker writer Benjo made a post during the WSOP about the abundance of American flags and pride.  There were flags of all, errrr most nations on the tables during the 2008 WSOP Main Event.  Benjo may be French but don’t label him with the French stereotype because Benjo loves America and [...]

Goodbye 2008 WSOP… For Now…

I’m having WSOP déjà vu.  I think I may be on the same flight I took out of Las Vegas in 2006.  The sun has just dipped behind the mountains and the strip is beginning to twinkle with Neon.  Normally when I leave Las Vegas, I look out the window for the Bellagio fountains but [...]

Phil Hellmuth: Last Champion Standing in 2008 WSOP Main Event

Phil Hellmuth is the last former champ standing in the 2008 WSOP Main Event.  Hellmuth will start Day 6 in the penalty box for being kind enough to teach another player not to risk losing the World Series of Poker playing crappy cards berating another player. 
 
Other notables are Brandon Cantu, Tiffany Michelle, Mike Matusow and [...]
