Is it too early to call her the Dwyte Pilgrim of 2011?
We were just telling you how well La Sengphet was playing … when boyfriend David Clark gave me a buzz to let me know, yo dude, don\’t hate on the short bus! But lest he start thinking he could keep up with his better half … yesterday she took down her second WSOP-circuit ring of the season — winning the last event of WSOP-St. Louis, a $345 NLH.
Not sure on the number of players or payout yet … we\’ll of course let you know. And pretty sure that\’s another 50 circuit championship points, too, which would put her 4th in the pool of 34 potential non-automatic qualifiers. And depending on the other deep runners in her event and the main … it looks like she may well have won the crown for Harrah\’s St. Louis \”casino champion\” … which would guarantee her a seat in the WSOP\’s million-dollar circuit freeroll in late May.
Meanwhile, they are celebrating La\’s victory all across Laos … though we did just learn they aren\’t doing this all for La … it also happens to be Laotian New Year all week.
