Zehn Top WSOP Bracelet Gewinner Die PokerNews Top 10: Zehn Top WSOP Bracelet Gewinner Nicole Gordon Nur noch eine Woche bis sich die PokerPros, die Amateure und einige Träumer im Amazon Room des Rio Casino’s versammeln werden, um an der WSOP 2009 teilzunehmen. 57 Bracelets können in diesem Sommer insgesamt in Las Vegas gewonnen werden und einige Elite-Spieler, wie Layne Flack, Erik Seidel, Doyle Brunson und Phil Hellmuth werden versuchen ihr siebtes, achtes, neuntes, elftes oder sogar ihr zwölftes WSOP Gold zu gewinnen. Schauen Sie sich die Jungs mit den meisten Bracelets an – unsere PokerNews Top 10 der WSOP Bracelet Gewinner. 7-10. Jay Heimowitz, Layne Flack, T.J. Cloutier, Men “The Master” Nguyen (6) Einer der regelmäßigen Spieler im Manhattan’s Mayfair Club in den 80’ern (zusammen mit Dan Harrington, Erik Seidel und Howard Lederer), Jay Heimowitz, gehört zu den 4 Spielern, welche sich mit 6 Bracelets einen Platz teilen. Heimowitz gewann sein Gold mit Siegen im Jahr 1975 beim $ 5.000 No Limit Holdem Event, im Jahr 1991 beim $ 5.000 Pot Limit Omaha Event, im Jahr 1994 beim $ 1.500 Pot Limit Holdem Event, im Jahr 2000 beim $ 5.000 Limit Holdem Event und im Jahr 2001 beim $ 1.000 Seniors Event. Obwohl er immer noch in New York wohnt, reist er regelmäßig zur WSOP und war alleine während der letzten 4 Jahre bei der WSOP 6 Mal in den Geldrängen, womit er insgesamt bei der WSOP 36 Preisgelder heimgeholt hat. Nach einer langen Pause zwischen seinen großen Turniererfolgen, hatte Layne Fleck im letzten Sommer ein triumphales Comeback, als er das $ 1.500 Pot Limit Omaha Event gewann, wofür er ein Preisgeld in Höhe von $ 577.000 und sein sechstes WSOP Bracelet erhielt. Sein erstes Bracelet sicherte er sich 1999 beim $ 3.000 Pot Limit Holdem Event. Im Jahr 2002 siegte er beim $ 1.500 und das $ 2.000 No Limit Holdem Event (Bracelet #2 & #3). Nr. 4 und Nr. 5 holte er sich im Jahr 2003 beim $ 2.500 Omaha Hi-Lo Event und beim $ 1.500 Shootout Event. T.J.Cloutier ist wohl der bekannteste No-Limit Turnierspieler, der noch kein Bracelet beim Main Event gewonnen hat. Er holte sich sein erstes Bracelet, als die meisten jungen WSOP Rookies noch nicht einmal geboren waren – T.J. hatte das $ 1.000 Limit Omaha Event im Jahr 1987 gewonnen. Sieben Jahre später sicherte er sich sein zweites Bracelet, im Jahr 1994 beim $ 1.500 Omaha Hi-Lo Event. Das dritte Bracelet gewann er ebenfalls im Jahr 1994 und zwar beim $ 2.500 Pot Limit Holdem Event. Die restlichen Bracelets erhielt er im Jahr 1998 beim $ 2.500 Pot Limit Omaha Event, im Jahr 2004 beim $ 1.500 Razz Event und im Jahr 2005 beim $ 5.000 No Limit Holdem Event. Somit darf er insgesamt 6 Bracelets sein Eigen nennen. Er belegt außerdem den 5.Platz in der Rangliste der “WSOP All Time“ Preisgeldgewinner und war insgesamt 55 Mal in den Geldrängen bei der WSOP. Men “The Master” Nguyen, unser letztes Mitglied im 5 Bracelet Club, holte sich sein erstes Bracelet im Jahr 1992 beim $ 1500 Seven Card Stud Event. Bei der WSOP 1995 gewann er zwei Bracelets – beim $ 2.500 Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo und beim $ 2.500 Limit Holdem Event. Im Jahr 1996 beim $ 2.500 Omaha Hi- Lo Event und zwei weitere Bracelets im Jahr 2003 – beim $ 5.000 Seven Card Stud Event und beim $ 1500 Ace-to-Five Triple Draw. Was die Anzahl der Gesamtpreisgelder bei der WSOP angeht, liegt Nguyen in der Rangliste mit 62 Preisgeldern auf Platz 2 (direkt hinter Phil Hellmuth, welcher die Rangliste mit 69 Preisgeldern anführt). 6. Billy Baxter (7) Früher wurden die Lowball Events bei der WSOP auch als “Billy Baxter Benefit Events” bezeichnet. Da die anderen Pros bei diesen Events ihr Geld regelmäßig an Billy Baxter “verschenkten”. Alle 7 WSOP Bracelets hat Billy bei Lowball gewonnen. Im Jahr 1975 gewann er beim $ 1.000 Deuce-to-Seven Draw Event. Im Jahr 1978 siegte er beim $ 10.000 Deuce to Seven Event. Das Jahr 1982 brachte ihm sogar 2 Bracelets – beim $ 10.000 Deuce-to-Seven Event und beim $ 2.500 Ace-to- Five Draw Event. Fünf Jahre später, im Jahr 1987, holte er sich sein 5. Bracelet beim $ 5.000 Deuce-to-seven Event. Das gleiche Event gewann er im Jahr 1993 erneut, was ihm sein 6. Bracelet einbrachte. Sein 7. Bracelet erhielt er ausnahmsweise mal nicht bei einer Draw-Variante (obwohl es sich dabei weiterhin um ein Lowball Event handelte), sondern beim $ 1.500 Razz Event im Jahr 2002. Zusätzlich zu seinen Braceletgewinnen, belegte er zwei Mal den 2.Platz und ein Mal den 3.Platz…natürlich bei Lowball Events. 5. Erik Seidel (8) Erik Seidel wird oft zu Gunsten jüngerer Online Spieler einfach übersehen, obwohl er zu den stärksten Spielern im Amazon Room gehört. Er hat Erfahrung in jeder Spielvariante und kann auf 20 Jahre Erfahrung bei Live Turnieren zurückblicken. Nachdem er im Jahr 1988 im WSOP Main Event gegen Johnny Chan den 2.Platz belegte, gewann er das $ 2.500 Limit Hold’em Event 1992, das $ 2.500 Omaha Hi-Lo Event 1993, das $ 5.000 Limit Hold’em Event 1994, das $ 5.000 Deuce to Seven Draw Event 1998, das $ 3.000 No-Limit Hold’em Event 2001, das $ 1.500 Pot-Limit Omaha Event 2003, das $ 2.000 No- Limit Hold’em Event 2005 und das $ 5.000 World Championship No-Limit Deuce-to-Seven Draw Event 2007. Das Jahr 2008 war für Seidel überaus erfolgreich. Er wurde beim Aussie Millions Main Event Zweiter, holte sich einen WPT Titel und fast 1 Million Dollar Preisgeld bei den Foxwoods Poker Classics. Außerdem saß er sowohl beim $ 10.000 World Championship Seven-Card Stud Event und dem $ 1.500 Pot Limit Omaha Hi-Lo Event bei den ’08 Series am Final Table. Seidel ist also für die Teilnahme an der WSOP 2009 bestens gerüstet. 4. Johnny Moss (9) Bevor er im Jahr 1995 verstarb, gewann Johnny Moss neun WSOP Bracelets und hielt jahrelang den Rekord für die meisten Bracelets, bevor er Doyle Brunson und Phil Helmut im Jahr 2003 und Johnny Chan im Jahr 2005 gebrochen wurde. Moss gewann sein erstes Bracelet im Jahr 1970 beim Allzeit ersten WSOP Main Event (er wurde per Wahl von seinen Freunden zum Champ ernannt), im Jahr 1971 holte er zwei weitere Bracelets (Main Event und Limit Ace to Five Draw Event). In den Jahren 1974 bis 1976 sammelte er jeweils ein Bracelet (1974 – im Main Event, 1975 und 1976 im Stud Event), sein 7.Bracelet gewann er im Jahr 1979 beim $ 5.000 Seven Card Stud Event. Nr. 8 holte er sich im Jahr 1981 durch einen Sieg beim $ 1.000 Seven Card Stud Hi Lo Event. Danach dauerte es 7 Jahre, bis er sein neuntes und somit letztes Bracelet im Jahr 1988 beim $ 1.500 Ace-to-Five Draw Event nach Hause holte. Insgesamt hat Moss bei der WSOP 24 Preisgelder gewonnen (davon belegte er neun Mal den ersten Platz). 2-3. Johnny Chan, Doyle Brunson (10) Im Jahr 2005 gewann Johnny Chan sein 10. Bracelet beim $ 2.500 Pot-Limit Hold’em Event 2005, Doyle Brunson holte sich zu diesem Zeitpunkt ebenfalls sein 10. Bracelet und zwar beim $ 5.000 Short Handed No Limit Holdem Event. Chan erhielt sein erstes Bracelet im Jahr 1985, als er im $ 1.000 Limit Hold’em Event siegte, im Jahr 1987 und im Jahr 1988 gewann er das WSOP Main Event. Im Jahr 1994 siegte er beim $ 1.500 Seven-Card Stud Event, im Jahr 1997 beim $ 5.000 No-Limit Deuce to Seven Draw Event, im Jahr 2000 beim $ 1.500 Pot-Limit Omaha Event, im Jahr 2002 beim $ 2,500 No-Limit Hold’em Gold Bracelet Match Play Event, im Jahr 2003 beim $ 5.000 No-Limit Hold’em Event und beim $ 5.000 Pot-Limit Omaha Event. Doyle Brunson gewann sein erstes Bracelet im Jahr 1976 beim $ 5.000 Deuce-to-Seven Draw Event und siegte ein paar Tage später das WSOP Main Event. Im darauf folgenden Jahr gewann er nicht nur das Main Event, sondern auch das $ 1.000 Seven-Card Stud Hi-Lo Event. Texas Dolly holte sich sein 5. Bracelet ein Jahr später beim 1978 $ 5.000 Seven-Card Stud Event und Nr. 6 im Jahr 1979 beim $ 600 Mixed Doubles Event. Bis zu seinem 7. Bracelet musste er bis zum Jahr 1991 warten, wobei er dieses Bracelet beim $ 2.500 No-Limit Hold’em Event heim holte. Im Jahr 1998 gewann er sein 8. Bracelet beim $ 1.500 Razz Event. Big Papa war der Erste, der den Rekord von Johnny Moss brach, als er im Jahr 2003 beim $ 2.000 H.O.R.S.E Event siegte. In der gleichen Woche holte sich Hellmuth jedoch ebenfalls sein 10. Bracelet. Brunson nimmt schon seit 39 Jahren an der WSOP teil, während dieser Zeit hat er 32 Preisgelder gewonnen und saß dabei 24 Mal am Final Table. 1. Phil Hellmuth (11) Phil Hellmuth war zwar nicht der erste Spieler mit 10 Bracelets, war aber der erste (und momentan einzige) Spieler mit 11 Bracelets. Nachdem er im Main Event 1989 Johnny Chan im Heads-Up besiegte und dabei das erste Bracelet gewann, hat er in den folgenden Jahren zehn weitere Bracelets sammeln können – alle in Holdem Events (drei bei Limit Holdem, sieben bei No Limit Holdem und ein Bracelet bei Pot Limit Holdem). Egal was man über sein Benehmen am Spieltisch denkt, mit 11 Bracelets in 23 Jahren bei der WSOP (wobei er sich allein 4 Bracelets in den letzten 5 Jahren holte) hält er ungeschlagen den Rekord mit den meisten Bracelets bei WSOP Holdem Events..

  • “Comparing the Professionalization of Pro Gamblers and Pro Video Game Players”
    Johnson, M. R. (2017). “Comparing the Professionalization of Pro Gamblers and Pro Video Game Players”. Occasional Paper Series, 40. Las Vegas: Center for Gaming Research, UNLV University Libraries. Comparing the Professionalization of Pro Gamblers and Pro Video Game Players Introduction Although difficult to trace the earliest era of professional gambling activity - understood here as gambling which provides the primary or entire source of income for an individual to live off - professional gamblers have long been central to the cultural mythos of gambling practice (Hayano, 1984). However, by its nature - in casinos and card rooms, private clubs, in homes, on golf courses - the actual practice of the professional gambler is rarely noted through any formal means. It is instead recorded and reproduced through word-of-mouth, creating stories that circulate widely but, in some cases, run the risk of losing their original veracity the further from the gambler in question they drift. Equally, when so many stories feature significant losses, or cheating, or other practices gamblers might not want to own up to or otherwise be associated with, it is easy to see how the lines between the actual practice of pro gamblers and the cultural imagination surrounding them might diverge. What does a professional gambler actually do on their path to becoming a professional gambler, and what challenges do they face? What practices, beyond their obvious skill at gambling per se, mark them out as being “professional” material? More recently than professional gambling is the rise of professional video game play, known as “electronic sports” or more commonly “eSports”. Such competitions are played both online, and physically in stadium venues, which can sell out to crowds of as high as forty thousand concurrent attendees (Evans, 2014).

But, if your ambition is to become a great player, a top flight Pro, a superstar ... you'll need to really understand your opponents. You'll need to get inside your opponent's head and be able to estimate with a high degree of certainty what his check, bet or raise really means ... and what hand he's likely to be playing. Being able to do that accurately isn't easy. But you can do it if you're alert, observant, disciplined and if you concentrate whenever you play (whether or not you're involved in the pot).

None of the Vegas myths is bigger, though, than the one that goes like this: “It’s possible to drift into town with only a few bucks and leave a week later with a fortune.” That’s the elemental Vegas myth, the one that turns normally responsible men into fools and pensioners into paupers. Were it not for the gambling public’s unwavering faith in the Big Myth, Las Vegas’ casinos wouldn’t win billions a year.

About the Authors Lou Krieger learned poker at the tender age of 7, while standing at his father’s side during the weekly Thursday night game held at the Krieger kitchen table in the blue-collar Brooklyn neighborhood where they lived. Lou played throughout high school and college and managed to keep his head above water only because the other players were so appallingly bad. But it wasn’t until his first visit to Las Vegas that he took poker seriously, buying into a low-limit Seven Card Stud game where he managed — with a good deal of luck — to break even. “ While playing stud,” he recalls, “ 1 noticed another game that looked evert more interesting. It was Texas Hold’em. “ 1 watched the Hold’em game for about 30 minutes, and sat down to play. One hour and $100 later, 1 was hooked. I didn’t mind losing. It was the first time I played, and 1 expected to lose. But I didn’t like feeling like a dummy so I bought and studied every poker book I could find.” “ I studied; I played. 1 studied and played more.

  • A. Alvarez. the Biggest Game in Town. Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1983. Pp17-34
    A. Alvarez. The Biggest Game in Town. Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1983. pp17-34. BENNY BINION is now seventy-seven years old, a genial, round-faced, round- bellied man, like a beardless Santa Claus in a Stetson, benign and smiling. Yet when he left Texas, thirty-five years ago, his police record included bootlegging, gambling, theft, carrying concealed weapons, and two murder charges. (One was dismissed as “self- defense,” and for the other he was given a suspended two-year sentence.) Like his contemporary and long-time friend Johnny Moss, three times World Poker Champion, Benny came from a dirt-poor family-his father was a stockman-and made his fortune the hard way, by his wits, starting as a “hip-pocket bootlegger.” Moss explained to me, “He kept his stuff in a stash car round downtown Dallas. He’d go get a pint, put it in his hip pocket, sell it, and go get another pint.” After the repeal of Prohibition, he moved into gambling, which was then, as it is now, illegal in the state of Texas. By the time the Second World War ended, he had become “kind of the boss of gambling down there in Dallas,” his son Jack said. He left town precipitately in 1946. “1 had to get out,” he is reported to have said. “My sheriff got beat in the election that year.” So he moved to Las Vegas, where gambling was legal, and eventually bought the Horseshoe, a shabby little casino that had begun life in 1937 as the El Dorado Club. As for the illegalities in his past, he says, “Tough times make tough people.” In 1953, the tough times caught up with him again: he was sentenced to five years in the federal penitentiary at Leavenworth for income tax evasion.
