Poker Hall of Fame Predictions - Part 2
Yesterday, I gave my thoughts on five of the ten finalists
for the 2011 Poker Hall of Fame class. Today I will round out my predictions and tell you who I
think the other person that will be inducted this year. *Annie Duke* - This nomination surprised me, but yet it
didn't surprise me. Nobody can deny her track record.

Erik Seidel and Full Tilt Pros Accused of Collusion
Erik Seidel has had an epic 2011. Since the beginning of the
year, he has taken down two major high-roller events and the
NBC National Heads-Up Championship to take over the all-time
money list lead. However, there are now allegations arising that are
beginning to cast doubt as to whether these wins were indeed
legitimate. It all started with a post on the TwoPlusTwo forums a couple
of weeks ago when poster "CrownWatchdog186" posted that the
fix was in for both the $100,000 Challenge match and the
$250,000 buy-in Super High Roller event.

Top 10 Moments in Poker for 2010 - Part 1
Since we are entering the final week of 2010, it is time for
me to be a lemming and do my year in review posts like every
other poker blogger and writer in the poker media. Â However, you all know I love to put my own opinion on
this, so over the next couple of days, I will give you MY
Top 10 Poker Moments of 2010. *#10 - Annie Duke Wins NBC National Heads-Up Championship*
* *
****

Annie Duke does not play the same schedule as many other
pros due to her family. Â As such, she really has to try
and take advantage of the live events she plays in.

2010 Women in Poker Hall of Fame Class Announced
The Women in Poker Hall of Fame announced their 2010 class
last week and, as I figured, my two picks were inducted into
the Hall along with someone else I never heard of. Jennifer Harman was to me an obvious choice due to the fact
that she is clearly the best all around female player on the
planet. She is the only woman to consistently play at the
high limits of Bobby's Room year in and year out and is the
only woman in history to have 2 open WSOP bracelets. Kathy Liebert is the all-time women's money winner and
clearly the best female NL Holdem tournament player on the
planet.

2010 WSOP Predictions - How Did I Do?
The 2010 WSOP has finally wrapped up, or at least until
November anyway. ÃÂ We saw a lot of history made and
big headline stories along the way. ÃÂ I thought I
would take a few moments to review some of the predictions I
made a couple of days prior to the start of the Series. *Women Will Not Walk Away With Three Bracelets - Result:
Push*
Technically, I nailed this one based on the title, but I
also said I thought that women would walk away with 2
bracelets including the Ladies Event.

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.

WSOP Commentary: Year of the Woman and Other WSOP Myths
This year at the 2010 World Series of Poker has been dubbed
with different âYear Ofâs. â I thought it was
interesting to see how some of the âbig storiesâ
coming into the 2010 WSOP have been developing. *Year of the Woman*
Coming into the WSOP, Ty Stewart made the prediction that 2
or 3 women would win open field WSOP events. Mike Matusow
stated that if this happened, he would run naked down the
strip.
