The US Poker Bowl











This past week I was at the Palms Casino for the taping of the US Poker Bowl. Instead of playing poker I was doing my "new role" as a tv host. This poker tournament was a little different than usual... 25 teams competed for 1 million dollars. ( Steve Dannenman's team Cincinati won the tournament.) As this is a new concept, many players have their own opinions on team poker and not all of them are good. But who knows? In this day in age, change is always good.



Speaking of change... i chopped my hair! Well not really chopped, but I cut it a little past my shoulders. I got the hair cut right before the poker bowl started. Just wanted to change things up a bit. Alas don't worry my hair grows fast and in a month you wont even know I cut it...

Anyway, the poker bowl was a fun experience. I saw a lot of friends that I haven't seen since the WSOP and I made some new friends at the same time. : ) Things were a slight bit hectic for everyone. Since it's the first tournament of its kind, everything that could possibly go wrong somehow did. In the end, everything was smoothed out. Thank goodness. Make sure to check it out early 2008 on Fox Sports. :)

WSOP 2007



This summer I spent 48 days (in a row) at the World Series of Poker, held at the Rio, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Being the 3rd year for me I was excited to be back, regardless of what had recently happened. My online sponsor dropped the entire team without notice right before the wsop. Luckily I was hired to be a correspondant for the world series of poker website. This gave me a chance to be more involved with the series and I could still play in tournaments of my choice. In a perfect world everything would have been great, but sadly it was quite dissapointing. Maybe that's the reason it's taken over 3 months to blog about it. I'm going to post this now and add to it as much as I can when I get free time. So make sure to check back. :)
