8 Texans … ship it!

LAS VEGAS–Throughout history, the WSOP has been dominated by Texans and Jews. At least one side is doing its part to keep that up this year, as eight Texans made it through to Day 5. One guy who probably didn\’t get the coverage he deserved is Jared Hamby, known both live and online as \”The Waco Kid.\” Like Josh Evans, he too happens to be a Jackie\’s alum. (Funny to me how reminisces of Jackie\’s sound the same as non-Texan reminisces of PartyPoker. Ahh, yes, the good-old-days [of 2006] … )

Anyhow, mad props to Hamby, who finished in 88th place, winning $82,476.
