The World Series of Golf commences today at Primm Valley. Our very own Donkey Bomber has paid the $10,000 entry to participate in the inaugural event that is being billed as \”Golf meets Texas Hold\’em.\” The unique structure of this tournament places an equal emphasis on Golf skills and general gambling prowess, giving a career gambler like Tom a distinct advantage over much of the field. But he won\’t be the only professional poker player to hit the greens today. Reports are that Phil Ivey, Phil Gordon, and Steve Dannenmann are also representing.
The WSOG will be aired on NBC on June 23rd and 24th.
From a phone call to Tom, just before the first round:
It\’s been like a whirlwind the last couple of days. Meetings, gambling, parties. It\’s a tough life, I tell ya.
F-You, Tom.
