LAS VEGAS–I\’ve finally arrived at the WSOP, and so wow … poker is dead. There is nothing going on here, no people, no nothin\’. If you believed me for even a moment … damn, you are so bluffable!
Anyhow, I\’m still getting set up to begin real work on Monday. In the meantime, both the Donkey Bomber and Fresh Princess (Tom and Michele to any new readers out there) are competing in today\’s $1,500 Pot Limit Hold\’em. Or perhaps I should say were competing. Michele went out on her very first hand. Oooch.
Apparently she had Ace-somethingtoolittletotellus, flopped two aces and thought she could push a player off his hand … you know, since they had been playing together for all of an orbit or two. But in the end there was no way he was going to lay down his Ace-betterkicker.
Hang in there Fresh Princess. Bad beat.
Did the Bomber bubble in Event #3, or did he sneak into the money? (I thought I saw he still had chips when they were close to the cash.)
No clue. I haven’t seen Tom yet. (There really are a lot of people here.) Will try to find out. Karridy, perhaps you have been texting with him?
According to the official website, it looks like he near-bubbled.
Did Tom play the PLHE today? I saw his name near the top in the Stud8/Omaha hi/lo tournamet when I was in the Amazon rom a little while ago.
