It's a marathon not a sprint

It seems that the Big One at the WSOP has been somewhat tedious according to this report by Ed Halls in the Grauniad. I am a great believer in following poker etiquette so this sort of language should not be tolerated.

Anyway it seems that Flusfeder from the Telegraph has made it to day 3 {click here}. Well done to him and the blog is a great read it sounds like you need a lot of patience to reach the stages where the prize money is dished out, I guess that now they are down to 700 the play will get even slower with people not wanting to miss out on a money finish.

Still things are bound to get interesting when the final stages are reached but this is the Big One and as the saying goes It's a marathon not a sprint

He's got the "NUTS"




Seems like former Wimbledon stopper Vinnie Jones is in Vegas! Well according to Victoria Coren in The Guardian anyway, he's playing Roulette with some poker players.


She makes some interesting observations on how playing Casino Table games can be bad for your poker.


Anyway if Vinnie is playing poker you can rely on him to be holding the Nuts.
