Players have returned from the first break and the blinds have gone from 50/100 to 100/200. I always hate how tournaments insist on doubling the blinds after one level. It’s still 100 big blinds if you have your starting stack, but why can’t they throw in a 75/150 level to give even more play. They announced earlier that they had added three levels to the early rounds, in my opinion this is one they missed. read more in pokerworks.com

I vividly remember the first time I saw Gus Hansen play poker. It was the final table of a World Poker Tour tournament televised on the Travel Channel, and I sat in wonder at this apparent maniac raising under the gun with hands like J-4 offsuit. Hansen’s play challenged everything I thought I knew about no limit hold’em, and, judging by his success, equally confused many of the best players in the world as well. Now, Hansen has undertaken a book project as unique as his style of play. Every Hand Revealed tracks each and every hand that Hansen played in last year’s Aussie Millions tournament, a tournament which he won. read more in pokerworks.com

It was the last of the 2008 World Series of Poker events prior to the main event. The $1,500 Limit Hold’em Shootout was the final one on the schedule of tournaments leading up to the one everyone has been waiting for, and it was the last chance for a player to win a bracelet without having to maneuver through a field of 6,000 to 8,000 players. read more in pokerworks.com

I got here a little early, mainly to make sure I beat the mad rush that will get here in about an hour and to make sure I got a seat on media row. There is NO event like the Main Event in poker. People can talk all they want about the WPT Championship or the 50K H.O.R.S.E. event but this is the one that everybody dreams of… it’s the impossible dream… the ultimate poker tournament. It’s the one tournament where amateurs and professionals unite in force, at a whopping price of $10,000, to test their skills against one another. I know it is the one tournament that I personally dream of just playing in, and for many doing just that… playing in the Main Event… is enough. read more in pokerworks.com

The $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha World Championship was destined to be a hit with the players, as PLO is seemingly more and more like the new hold’em. The game is suddenly appearing in card rooms and casinos around the world, and players are flocking to it. A total of 381 players did just that on Sunday, June 29 to see who could claim the title of PLO world champion at the 2008 WSOP. read more in pokerworks.com

Even with the action at the Rio winding down as the Main Event gets ready to start, there was still an event to be settled with a large amount of money at stake. The last $1,500 NLHE tournament of the 2008 WSOP started with 2,693 participants and the winner would take home an amazing sum of $625,443. The final table seating assignments and chip counts were as follows: read more in pokerworks.com

Last year, I missed the Ante Up For Africa event because it was one of the few days off I had. This year, I wanted to see it and made it a priority to come to. Wow, I had no idea what I was in for. Now I know why celebrities like Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears go a little crazy with all the paparazzi chasing them around. It was/is a madhouse here. Throw in a Ben Affleck, Adam Sandler, and Matt Damon and all of a sudden 200 members of the media show up. Whatever you do, don’t get in their way either, because they will run your ass over to get a shot of the celebrity they are after. read more in pokerworks.com
