For some reason I found this email that just came in about the WPT Celebrity Invitational quite amusing:

Subject: Re: WPT Invitational Day 1 Chip CountsThere was an error on the chip count list,
Matt Damon, Edward Norton, Eric Bana, and Abraham Lincoln did not play the Celebrity Invitational. We apologize for any inconvenience this might has caused.
If Abraham Lincoln were playing in this event, of course, I\’m pretty sure that would be \”good for poker\”.
UPDATE: The WPT seems to have a good sense of humor about it. Though I do see a little continued cred-jabbing between the Commerce and the WPT.
