WSOP

The WSOP is just 55 days away! Now is the time many sites begin to ramp up their WSOP coverage, previews, etc. I figured that I would talk in this blog about some of my personal favorite WSOP moments from the WSOP's that I have attended since 2006. #5. Meeting Erik Seidel my very first event.

Check this out. According to Pokerati, Everest Poker has backed out of the third year of its deal with the WSOP as its on felt sponsor. They were scheduled to pay Harrah's over $8 Million this year for the last of a three year deal. However, instead of paying Harrahs, they have decided to sue them for breach of contract.

If you have voted for the WSOP Tournament of Champions participants, then you know that they are listing the top 50 vote getters. I decided to go through the list and make my comments on them. If they have my vote, I will just note as such. Obviously, give me your thoughts on this.

As you may already know, PJ's science team has figured out who the next WSOP Main Event winner is going to be. Our crack team has used a cutting-edge poker seismograph along with previously unheard-of statistical methods to calculate where the next winner is located and even come up with a name€“ Ron Amos. It's amazing what modern science is capable of! Based on the geographical location of previous Main Event winners, our crack team deduced that the most likely winner currently resides in a garage in the small town of Quincy. Since Amos apparently doesn'€™t live in a garage, some supplementary calibration of the poker seismograph was needed, but now it appears to work perfectly.

Last week, officials at the WSOP tweeted that a major announcement was going to be made on Monday.   Monday came and details have been released regarding the “All-Star Event” that was hinted about earlier in the month.   The WSOP has brought back the storied Tournament of Champions.   The event will be held June 27th and will be played to the final table.
