2009 World Series of Poker – Days 1c and 1d Pictures

With all the excitement of the Day 1d sell out, massive amounts of Ante Up for Africa pictures, and trying to track down our players scattered amongst a sea of over 2,800 players I just never had the time to share with you the pictures from Day 1c.  I will quickly remedy that as well as bring you some of the best photos from yesterday.

Enjoy.

2009 World Series of Poker – Week 2 in Pictures

ev21 day 1 isb 7645 impdi web 2009 World Series of Poker   Week 2 in PicturesWe’ve put another week of the 2009 World Series of Poker in the books with more craziness.  The crowds continue to storm the hallways of the Amazon Room looking for a table and a chance.  The crazies are starting to make their way onto the scene, pros and amateurs are mingling together with a common goal, chip runners stay busy 24 hours a day.

While all this is going on, the good folks at Image Masters continue to provide us with some great action shots during the tournaments.  Every morning I receive pictures from the day before that I use to enhance the stories I try to bring the readers.  I hope they’ve added to the experience.

Today I bring you some photos from Week 2 of the 2009 World Series of Poker without my ramblings.  A small taste of what we have available, look for a full gallery coming in the next few days.  All pictures courtesy of Image Masters.

2009 World Series of Poker – The Week in Pictures

In my other life as a completely unprofessional blogger (I am semi-pro at best in this space), I always take the stand that posting nothing but pictures on your site is just the crutch of a weak blogger.  Words are hard, pretty picture keep the masses coming back.  However, pictures can have the great effect of enhancing a story and I’ve been getting some top shelf images sent my way via Images Masters.  Each Friday I’ll share with you some of the best images available.

The Week at FTP: Schoenberg Me the Money!

Well folks, today is a very sad day for all of here at The Rail, as Big Donkey is officially no longer with us. And today is especially sad for me, because now I have to (at least temporarily) take over The Week at FTP. Fear not faithful readers (there have to be at least two or three of you at this point, right?), for I will do my best to fill Big Donkey’s rather large and donktastic shoes. So without further ado, let’s get this weekly wrap-up under way:

The Week at FTP: Another FTOP-ical Post

The madness that is FTOPS has ended and honestly, we couldn’t be happier. It’s not that we don’t love the series – we do – really, we do – but after spending the last 10 days trying to keep track of all the tourney action, we need a break.

Of course, we can’t afford the kind of vacation that Reverse can now treat himself to, but then again, we didn’t just take down more than $456K for winning the Main Event. Nearly 5,300 players ponied up the $500 entry fee for this Mother-of-All-FTOPS events and, in the end, the fight for the gold jersey came down to Reverse and FTP’s own Thomas the Walrus Wahlroos.

The Pros Speak: Erica Schoenberg

If you’ve never played poker or seen anything about it on TV, you might not know who Erica Schoenberg is. But if you’re reading this, most likely you have. Affectionately dubbed “Poker Babe,” she’s no stranger to performing for crowds. While she was a professional model for some time, Erica’s skills at the table have propelled her to where she is today.

Always pleasant, she was quick to respond and tell us a bit about herself. Here’s what she had to say:
