LAS VEGAS–Poker is as poker does …

The notorious Neverwin Poker\’s DUSTIN WOLFE is kicking butt in the $5k NLH event — he\’s already made the money and is in solid chip position.

OLIVER TSE has (temporarily?) skipped town while an administrative process to decide on the revocation of his media credential — for writing something bad about HARRAH\’S/ESPN — has supposedly begun. Continued kudos to Oliver for being the kind of journalist bloggers can love, and for bringing important poker issues to the fore.

Question: if he were just a player and/or fan at this major public event, could they stop him from posting his mind?

One avid poker player who won\’t be at the WSOP is GREG HOGAN. (Too bad, too, because he could win his tuition playing on the site that just signed MICHAEL \”THE GRINDER\” MIZRACHI to represent.)

Speaking of blogging … it\’s always nice to see a prominent NON-POKER BLOGGER blogging about his adventures at the WSOP.

Super-nice high roller BARRY GREENSTEIN just signed on with the PokerStars Team, joining GREG RAYMER, JOE HACHEM, CHRIS MONEYMAKER, HUMBERTO BRENES, ISABELLE MERCIER, WIL WHEATON et al.

Owners of PARTYPOKER are selling some of their shares of the multibillion-dollarpound company that the US wants to make fully illegal, even though 9 out of 10 of their customers are American.

PARTY also wants in on the SPORTS-BETTING biz.
