Pure conspiracy theory … inspired by the winner\’s pic of \”Harold and\” Vivek Rajkumar proudly displaying his WSOP WPT bracelet at the Borgata. Without even a rumor to base this on (just circumstantial observations and wild speculation) I called Pauly hoping we could start one. Pauly was in London after covering the entirety of the last WPT event in Atlantic City, and had a brief stop-over in Amsterdam, which I figured put him in the exact right frame of mind to feel the rhymes I was droppin\’ … and sure enough, by the time our jam was done we\’d have Full Tilt moving in on PokerStars\’ brick-and-mortar territory by bailing out Steve Lipscomb & Friends in an effort to challenge the EPT.
So you heard it here first … be sure to spread the word:
