It's June....that means the NBA Finals are here.....hot weather (usually darnit!), and poker fanatics of all shapes and sizes head for Vegas, and the World Series of poker.
The World Series is just that, a mega series of poker championships. It started on Friday May 30th with the World Championship of Pot-Limit Hold 'em. Nenad Medic (never heard of him either) won, with Poker commentator Mike Sexton getting 4th, and the unibomber Phil Laak getting 9th.
The madness continues all month until the grand daddy event, the $10,000 No Limit Texas Hold 'em World Championship, starting July 3rd. It is a 12 day event......boiling down from an estimated 7000 entries, to 9......when the final table will be played months later, on Sunday November 9th. Yes.....the final table will be played on a 2 hour delay on that Sunday.....MONTHS after the tourney. That will be interesting, and it could be darn exciting.
For all the results, and info you want.....including live updates, check out www.worldseriesofpoker.com/
Have a great week all!
