The World Series of Poker Europe was a period on any sentence that talks about how the Internet has changed the sport. Before today Annette “Annette_15″ Obrestad had the glorious distinction of being the best multi-table tournament player that the internet has to offer. In certain snobbish corners of the sport, the “poker elite” behave as if being the best tournament player in cyberspace is the equivalent of being the best race car driver in Hazzard County.

It was about two in the afternoon (British Time) when the evil was exorcised from the gaming floor at the World Series of Poker Europe. It was at this time that Phil Hellmuth was eliminated from competition. Usually when really bad things are killed off it takes an exploding death star or a farm house from Kansas falling on malevolent character to keep them down. In this case all it took was a short stacked Phil Hellmuth running into a very determined player.

Isabelle Mercier was eliminated with extreme prejudice when her pair of sixes failed to hold up against Tong G’s full house. During the previous hand Isabelle had the opportunity to eliminate Tony. She had him lined up for the kill with a pair of Queens when all he was holding was a suited A-K. During the hand her bravado got the best of her, and she took the opportunity to stick it to her flailing opponent.

The sixth day didn’t end with a bang - it was more like a flushing sound. Day 2A of the World Series of Poker Europe Main Event concluded with a pair of last minute eliminations. Pat Scanlan ended Ian Munns tournament on the very last hand of the night while Gus Hansen took out Chris Bjorin in a hand that had all the excitement and energy of a Bob Newhart running the 40 yard dash.

On Monday Phil Hellmuth arrived in grand fashion atop a double decker bus. Phil is a legend, a bit of a knob, but a legend nonetheless. His entrance was as big as his presence in the sport. On Day 1B Doyle Brunson’s exit was far less grand and in direct contrast to man who surpassed him as the most decorated player in World Series of Poker history.

The first event at the World Series of Poker Europe was won by a guy from Germany. Today an Italian was crowned the champion of Event 2. The last time folks from these two nations dominated a European struggle, well… really bad things happened. Seeing as neither of these winners has dreams of world domination or a tasteless little mustache, we think the EU you are safe.

Jennifer Harman may not have won any bracelets at the WSOP Europe, but she has had the uncanny knack of somehow being wherever the action was happening. She was a runner up in the first event, and on Day 1A of the Main Event, took out Andy Bloch.

Today we have crowned the first winner ever at the World Series of Poker Europe. The person who will forever hold this place in history is German poker ace Thomas Bihl. That is the good news, the bad news is that he had to beat Jennifer Harman in a heads up match to secure this place in poker history.

Usually when a story involves a New Zealander, a German, a Chick from Nevada, and Jesus it is the start of the sort of joke that one commonly finds written on the walls of the men’s room of a high school or the DNC headquarters. In the historic first event of the World Series of Poker Europe, this situation described the final four players vying for the first bracelet to ever be awarded outside the Las Vegas borders.

As of the writing of this column the final table has been set for the first event of the WSOP Europe. Unlike the WSOP proper that boasts dozens of events, the first European branch of this franchise has only three events to speak of. Don’t think of it as small though, we prefer the term “intimate”.

The World Series of Poker Europe Main Event continues apace and the pro poker players continue to knock each other out of the running for the top prize. The biggest pro killer was John Juanda, who knocked out fellow pros Erick Seidel, Andy Bloch and Mel Judah on his way to accumulating chips. In the end the chip leaders, and the players at the final table, are Robin Keston, Daniel Negreanu, Chris Elliott, Bengt Sonnert, John Juanda, Ivan Demidov, Toni Hiltunen, Scott Fischman and Stanislav Alekhin, ending the hopes of Annette Obrestad fans that the young pro would pull off back to back wins.

While he didn’t finish the day at the very top of the stack, he was close enough: Kid Poker showed his stuff at the World Series of Poker Europe main event, sponsored by Betfair and currently running in London. Plenty of big names were still in the event, such as Phil Laak and Justin Smith, but other than the eventual chip leader John Juanda, non were doing as well as Daniel Negreanu. These and others totally 36 made the money in the tournament, and only the top 24 made it through to the next day of the WSOPE.

Simon Galloway, 03/05/2007
After last week’s success in the Full Tilt Million Pound Challenge, Adam No-one has gone missing in action, presumably out in the big wide world now that he is Adam Some-one. Reports of a sighting on Mustique are unsubstantiated, but if he tries to hustle a poker game up together there, he will be back in Hendon broke within a fortnight. Until then, here’s the news..

I think that there is a natural transition with all poker players in how they go about learning certain games. I think that most players travel a very similar evolutionary process, the big difference seems to be the time delay for players to reach certain stages of advancement.
But one of the lessons that I learned (painfully) at the beginning of my time playing PLO was in the overall vulnerability of big pairs and especially when out of position and with deep stacks.
Omaha is a deeply…

In tournaments, I play lots of hands. I’ll put my money in with all kinds of connected cards, especially when in position. I might limp, I might min-raise or raise a little more than the minimum, depending on the circumstances. I’m looking to keep my table off balance so they don’t know where I’m coming from.
My overall goal is to pick up a lot of small pots without a lot of resistance. I might raise in position and hope for a call from one of the blinds. If I raise pre-flop with something…

There’s been plenty of live action recently and seeing as there was no news round up last week we’ll begin with a brief recap of the events from the EPT Barcelona main event held from 10th to 14th September. The Spanish leg is always a popular starter to the EPT season and so it proved this year with a big turn out of 619 entrants for the €8,000 tournament.

No I am not to going to sit here and start spouting about what a great PLO player I am because that would be nothing short of bull. For years and years I side stepped it like you do an embarrassing ex when you are out with your mates. I don’t know what it was about the game but I could never properly figure it out and especially short handed. In fact years ago I would actually muck good PLO hands in dealer’s choice games simply because I couldn’t trust myself from the flop…

£1/ £2 live cash game at the Casino at The Empire in London. Somehow I end up with my opponent all-in on the river with a pot of about £285 and I have 5 high. My opponent, embarrassed at his own high card holding (better than mine, obviously) angrily mutters something including the words "I fold" and throws his cards in face up towards but not touching the muck. This is absolutely irrelevant as far as the rules,…

Earlier this year, I cashed in the $2,000 Omaha Hi/Lo event at the World Series of Poker*. I enjoyed the tournament; it was great to spend some time playing a game other than hold ‘em. One thing that surprised me about the tournament, however, was that the quality of play was quite poor. Some players didn’t even know the very basics, like starting hand values. I was amazed that so many people would put $2,000 into a tournament where they didn’t understand even the most rudimentary elements of…

I think that before you take a seat in any poker game be it online or in some card room then it pays to have some kind of a plan as to how you intend to make money. Too many poker players seem to drift into games having no idea what they need to be doing in order to win. Now to have a good idea as to where the money will be coming from (if at all) in a poker game then you need to know three things.

Your own level of knowledge/ability
The level of knowledge and ability of your…

A few people have asked me why I haven’t written a diary recently. Some of them have said very kind things about how they enjoy reading about my travels, and that they’ve been wondering what’s been happening lately. Others are probably secretly thinking, (and hoping), that I’ve been doing my bollocks and I’ve been too miserable to write. I did actually hear recently that I lost £85,000 in the Vic in August and that I was doing a good job of losing all the Irish Open money.
