EPT Down WPT to go

The EPT in Monte Carlo is over with some dude winning. He's like from Canada and you know about that guy. Im not your guy friend. Anyhow. Antonio Esfandiari made the final table along with Iassac WestMenlo Baron aslo made the final table. Time to get your asses to Vegas friends.



I'll be there on Sunday. Im not playing "obv" because action starts on Saturday. I will be attending the Champions presentation. WPT has decided to give past WPT winners Titanium and Diamond bracelets. SHould be an interesting event. If everyone attends it will be a varitable whos who of poker. Here is a short list of people who will receive the WPT bracelets:

Doyle Brunson, Phil Ivey, Gus Hansen, Howard Lederer, Daniel Negraneu, Carlos Mortenson, Eric Seidel, Barry Greenstein, Erick Lindgren, Ted Forrest and more.

Dont you think its odd that the WPT is putting out bracelets. Its an obvious copy off the WSOP. But it could it be a precursor to Harrahs buying the WPT. The stock is so damn cheap, if Harrahs forks over the 30 million the company is worth they would bascially own poker in the US. Which also brings the question up, why doesnt MGM Mirage buy the WPT. Fuck it. Die in a fire.
