(Way) Outside the WSOP (The November Nine)
by Kevin Mathers, Jul 15, 2008 | 10:01 am
What’s happening as the countdown is underway for the November Nine:
Now that we know who the November Nine are, who do people root for?
Is it the chip leader from St. Louis?
Is it the quiet Russian?
Will it be the grinder from Los Angeles?
Can it be the player with 10 BB’s, has two female first names, and is on a virtual freeroll from this point forward?
Will the Canadians have their first Main Event winner?
Will the FIDE Master from New York follow through on his threat to be invisible until November?
Can the only player from Texas bring the holdem title back to the Lone Star State?
Will the Danish player do what Gus Hansen was unable to do in the Series?
Only 117 days until we start finding out…

I’m rooting for the guy from St. Louis. He has virtually no live poker tournament experience and it would be great to see some one like him win it. Just a down home dude from the midwest USA.

I will prob lose interest by then. The holiday season will keep me busy and enjoying life with the family.
