Brady Beats Field to Win Aruba Poker Classic

The Aruba Poker Classic, sponsored by online poker room Ultmate Bet poker, just wrapped up two days ago and the winner was pro poker player Matt Brady.

Online Poker Room Suffers Overlay for Being Nice

Online poker room Doyles Room decided to offer a free ticket into a $250,000 Guaranteed event for new deposits by existing players, which wound up costing the poker room $50k. This was the overlay, the amount that they fell short in meeting the $250k guarantee, and so the funds had to come out of Doyle’s Room’s coffers. The total number of players in the event were just over 1,300, but many of them did not have to pay to enter, so the prize pool came up just under $200k…

Jenny McCarthy Hosts Poker Tournament

Actress Jenny McCarthy hosted a poker tournament recently in order to help raise awareness and raise money in the fight against autism.

John Juanda Wins World Series of Poker Europe

The second annual World Series of Poker Europe has come to a close, and the winner of the coveted main event is an American poker pro, John Juanda. The buy in was 10,000 and 362 players took part, creating a prize pool of 3,620,000.

Those players with existing loyalty poker points will have their balance converted to the new system of Mansion Club Points…

Former WSOP Champ Named in Cheating Scandal

While the specific evidence has yet to be forthcoming, Russ Hamilton has been named as a party in the cheating scandal that has involved online poker room UltimateBet. Hamilton won the 1994 World Series of Poker main event, which paid him a prize of $1 million. In addition that was the only year the WSOP paid the winner his weight in silver…

US State Attempt to Hijack Poker URLs Failed

The US State of Kentucky had supported an effort to take control of 141 online gambling site URLs, including some of the more popular online poker sites like Full Tilt Poker and Pacific Poker, stating they encroach on the state’s own gambling businesses. Judge Thomas Wingate however defeated the move after allowing defense attorneys a continuance to build their case. The court ruling puts a temporary hold on any attempts to seize these URLs, which means the issue is not completely resolved but is a blow for the side of online poker players everywhere.

World Series of Poker Europe - Main Event Champion Is Crowned

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.

World Series of Poker Europe - Day 8, September 13th, 2007

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.

World Series of Poker Europe - Day 7, September 12th, 2007

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.

World Series of Poker Europe - Day 6, September 11th, 2007

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.

World Series of Poker Europe - Day 5, September 10th, 2007

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.

World Series of Poker Europe Event 2 - 5,000 + 250 Pot Limit Omaha

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.

World Series of Poker Europe - Day 4, September 9th, 2007

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.

World Series of Poker Europe - Day 3, September 8th, 2007

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.

World Series of Poker Europe Event 1 - GBP 2,500 + 150 H.O.R.S.E

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.

World Series of Poker Europe - Day 2, September 7th, 2007

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”.

WSOPE Main Event Continues

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.

WPT’s Fall Boot Camps

“Boot camp” is term generally given to the military training that turns a kid, whose greatest challenge in life was getting past the Nightmare level on Halo 2, into a well oiled fighting machine. This type of training usually involves trading one’s locks for a tacky camouflage wardrobe and the type of food that even a wiener dog would turn their nose up at. After 8 to 10 weeks of running, sweating, and getting yelled at by somebody who works out their personal issues by intimidating teenagers, boot camp is over and the cadet is transformed from a pile of useless goo into something their parents can be proud of. If this is the sort of experience you are looking for, the WPT boot camp is definitely not the place to be.
