#782 – 2009 WSOP #40 - Vegas on $2,000 a Day #6 – No One Knows Where the Hobo Goes When it Snows
Friday night 9:30 pm.
I just busted from the $2,500 OEOB/SEOB in forty-eighth place, eight spots from the money on the last hand from the break. I’m struggling to find a word that describes how I feel right now. I played well and I have busted out of many tournaments but busting out of this tournament after this amount of time is a little different. But I can’t come up with the word.

#781 - 2009 WSOP #39 - Daily Tilt #20 - Wednesday, June 17, AM Edition
Tuesday was a disappointing day for Full Tilt pros at the final table, but Wednesday promises several more opportunities for bracelets. Still, it was John Juanda’s third final table and Fabrice Soulier’s fifth cash of the 2009 World Series.

Johnny Chan fell short in his bid for bracelet no. 11, in the Heads-Up Championship. In the PLO, John Juanda is still in the hunt for no. 5, but he is the short stack at the final table. Ross Boatman, the chip leader, is closing in on his first bracelet. Fabrice Soulier, likewise, is the chip leader going into the third day of the $1,500 HORSE.

The PLOEOB proved lucrative for Full Tilt pros, with Roland De Wolfe winning his first World Series bracelet, Scott Clements finishing third, and Andy Black taking sixth. Among today’s events, Day 2 of the PLO should be particularly exciting for Tilt fans, as a number of big names are in position on Moving Day.

#778 - 2009 WSOP #36 - Seen & Heard #11 - Roland De Wolfe Has a Lot of Gamble … and a Lot of Hardware
Last night, Roland De Wolfe won his first World Series of Poker bracelet in the $5,000 Pot Limit Omaha Eight or Better, a form of poker he admits having never played before. Based on an evening I spent with Roland last week - an account of which will appear in the Blog in the next few days - I know he has an almost unlimited amount of gamble in him. He now has, in addition to his WPT and EPT championships, a World Series gold bracelet.

#777 – 2009 WSOP #35 – Vegas on $2,000 a Day #5 – The Great Satellite Caper
I started my coverage of last year’s single-table satellite season at the WSOP with the following recommendation:
The point of the story I am going to tell is this: Get the fuck to Las Vegas as soon as you can. Quit Full Tilt. Throw your computer in a dumpster. Cut off your girlfriend’s arm and sell the rings off the fingers. Do whatever you can to get to the World Series of Poker …. The opportunities provided in the satellite room are so lucrative as to justify any sort of mayhem necessary to get your ass there.
I will start this year’s satellite coverage with a shorter, more urgent message: Why aren’t you here yet? Hurry!

#776 - 2009 WSOP #34 - Daily Tilt #17 - Sunday, June 14, AM Edition
Phil Ivey won his seventh bracelet on Saturday night, just ten days after winning his sixth. Today, Scott Clements is in the lead at the final table of the $5,000 PLEOEOB and several Full Tilt pros made it to Round 3 of the Heads-Up Championship.
