WSOP Main Event Day 1c Update – Hellmuth Makes His Grand Entrance, and the Curse of the Feature Table
Feels like groundhog day here at the WSOP today, all the
reporters are over writing up day one information and
nothing exciting is happening. Well Hellmuth did make his
standard entrance to the Main Event today, with some
minor technical difficulties. *Helmuth Fights Way Into Amazon Room*
What would a WSOP Main Event be without Phil Helmuth making
some type of grand entrance, or cry for attention (you be
the call). This year was no different from the years past,
with him actually having a stage pulled up to the entrance
of the conference center here at the Rio for a brief show
before he finally arrived.

WSOP Commentary: Poker and Morality
For a few weeks now, I have been pondering poker and
morality. While some believe that the two are mutually
exclusive of each other, it has become quite evident what
crimes are unforgivable. *Abuse Can Be Overlooked*
Some of you may remember my memories of John Bonetti and how
I have said in the past he has reminded me of my
grandfather. Well, one thing that John and my grandfather
shared was a fiery temper.

Well we are back in the Amazon room today for another day 1
of the main event. This time we are on the 2nd, or rather b,
day of day 1. Confused yet? Join the crowd, we had to stop
counting how many days the series has been going cause we
ran out of fingers and toes, maybe we can just start
counting how many days are left. *Another day.

WSOP Day 38 Second Update - TOC Finally Over, Daniel Alaei Wins 3rd Bracelet, and the Circus is Coming!!
It has been a very interesting, and late, night at the 2010
World Series of Poker. Four events were underway tonight,
but only half of them completed. Huck Seed won the
Tournament of Champions and Daniel Alaei won his 3rd career
bracelet. *Tournament of Champions Grind Finally Over*
While many pros did their typical "thank you for the
opportunity" speech at the end of the event, the one word
that stuck out before the final table began was
#clusterfuck.
