  • WPT Festa Al Lago: Cole in Pole – Deeb Und Ferguson in Top 10
    WPT Festa al Lago: Cole in Pole – Deeb und Ferguson in Top 10 Von M. W. Im Rennen um die vier Millionen Dollar Preisgeld wird e simmer spannender. Corwin Cole holte sich die Pole-Position und ist mit knapp einer Million Chips Favorit auf den Titel, der mit 1.218.225 Dollar belohnt wird. Von den 96 Teilnehmern sind noch 37 im Turnier. Heute müssen noch zehn davon raus, damit sich die restlichen Spieler ein Preisgeld von mindestens 23.855 Dollar abholen können. Freddy Deeb und Chris Ferguson stiegen dank einer Sonderregelung erst am gestrigen zweiten Tag in die Veranstaltung ein und liegen bereits auf dem achten und zehnten Platz. Für Chris „Jesus“ Ferguson sah es kurz gar nicht gut aus, als er und sein Gegenüber auf dem Board von D710/9 All-In gingen. Es selbst hatte zwar die Dame zum High- Pair, doch auf der anderen Seite zeigte sich D/9 für zwei Paare. Ferguson muss allerdings einen Schutzengel gehabt haben, denn schon am Turn folgte der König. Der Gewinner der 2009 Legends of Poker Prahlad Friedman liegt mit 188.000 im hinteren Feld. Seine Ehefrau führt ihm derzeit vor, wie es besser ginge. Dee Luong (Bild) liegt nämlich mit 771.500 Chips auf dem ausgezeichneten vierten Platz und ist natürlich die beste Frau im Event. Für Tag 1-Chipleader Mike Matusow, Justin Bonomo, Jonathan Little, Scott Clements und Mike Leah ist die WPT Festa al Lago bereits gelaufen. Corwin Cole schmiss kurz vor Ende Bob Safai, der ein Paar Neuner hielt, hinaus. Cole callte mit A/J und sah am Flop eben diese zwei Karten in einer anderen Farbe auftauchen.

  • Die Meisten WSOP Preisgelder
    Die PokerNews Top 10: Die meisten WSOP Preisgelder Nicole Gordon Nikolay Evdakov brach im Jahr 2008 den Rekord, als er bei der WSOP 10 Preisgelder gewann. Im Jahr 2007 hielt Michael Binger den Rekord mit 8 Preisgeldern und im Jahr 2006 ging die Krone mit ebenfalls 8 Preisgeldern an Humberto Brenes. Ein gutes Jahr zu haben ist eine Sache, wenn sich aber Spieler Jahr ein, Jahr aus durch hervorragende WSOP Resultate auszeichnen, ist das eine andere Sache. Wir präsentieren ihnen nachfolgend eine Liste mit den Spielern, die insgesamt die meisten WSOP Preisgelder gewonnen haben. 9-10. John Juanda, Brent Carter (45) John Juanda gewann seine ersten Preisgelder bei der WSOP 1999, er saß bei zwei Limit Holdem Events am Final Table, wobei er letztendlich Platz 9 und Platz 7 belegte. Seit dieser Zeit hat er bei 43 weiteren WSOP Events Preisgelder gewonnen, wobei er dabei 20 Mal am Final Table saß und 4 Bracelets gewonnen hat (2002 – USD 1.500 Ace-to-Five Lowball Event, 2003 – USD 2.500 Seven-Card Stud Hi/Lo Event, 2003 – USD 2.500 Pot-Limit Omaha Event und im Jahr 2008 beim WSOP-Europe Main Event). Fast ein Drittel der USD 9,4 Millionen, welche er im Laufe seiner Karriere bei Pokerturnieren gewonnen hat, stammen aus Preisgeldern, welche er bei WSOP-Events gewonnen hat. Dieses Ergebnis verschafft im Platz 25 in der WSOP All Time Money Gewinner Rangliste. Juanda war bei der WSOP 2008 so erfolgreich, daß es ihm schwerfallen würde, dieses Ergebnis zu überbieten – sechs Preisgelder, drei Mal am Final Table und ein Bracelet im Main Event.

  • Learn How to Make Money Freelance Writing for the Casino/Gaming Industry!
    Learn how to make money freelance writing for the casino/gaming industry! FREELANCE POKER WRITING: How to Make Money Writing for the Gaming Industry Buy The Complete Version of This Book at Booklocker.com: http://www.booklocker.com/p/books/2570.html?s=pdf Freelance Poker Writing by Brian Konradt 14 PREFACE This book is slightly ahead of its time. Freelance Poker Writing is the first book showing freelance writers how to make money writing for the gaming industry. Why now? Both poker and casino-style games have been growing in popularity — and so has the writing opportunities. If you search for “poker writing” or “legalized game writing” on Google, you won’t come up with much information on how to break into this industry as a freelance writer. This does not mean writing opportunities don’t exist or freelance writers aren’t making money writing about poker and gaming. If you dig long enough, interview the pros in the industry, and research everything about poker and gaming, you will come up with what I came up. And I crammed everything I found into this guide for you. WHAT IS FREELANCE POKER WRITING? There are many popular casino-style games, but nothing matches the growth and popularity of poker and how poker influences society. In writing this book I have focused more on the games and influences of poker than on any other casino-style games. I use the term “poker writing” in this book to mean writing about the games of poker, as well as writing about the influences of poker.

  • Player Booklet, but WPT Will Not Be Held Responsible for Any Changes Or Errors Contained Herein
    GREETINGS Welcome to bestbet Jacksonville for the ® Season XV WPT bestbet Bounty Scramble. The WPT bestbet Bounty Scramble is one of the most entertaining events of the year, and once again bestbet Jacksonville Vice President of Poker Operations Deborah Giardina and her team have secured an exclusive list of bounty players for this tournament. WPT Champions Club members Michael Mizrachi, Anthony Zinno, and Scott Clements are among the bounty players, as are three-time NFL Super Bowl champion Richard Seymour and our very own Mike Sexton, Vince Van Patten, and Matt Savage. If you are fortunate enough to eliminate one of the bounty players during the Main Event, you will earn a $2,500 bounty prize. ADAM PLISKA President, World Poker Tour In addition to the bounty prizes available, bestbet Jacksonville will award the chip leaders of each starting flight with a $5,000 bonus. This added value is one of the many reasons players continue to return to this fantastic venue each season. Last year the event attracted more than 400 entries and doubled the $1 million guarantee. It is my pleasure to welcome you all to this year’s WPT bestbet Bounty Scramble, and I thank you for continuing to make this event a success. I encourage you to experience all this incredible property and city have to offer, from the wide variety of poker and table games at bestbet Jacksonville, to Jacksonville’s great restaurants, beautiful beaches, and world-class golf facilities.

  • WSOP 2008: Zusammenfassung Der Events #36 Bis #38
    WSOP 2008: Zusammenfassung der Events #36 bis #38 Event #36: USD 1.500 No-Limit Hold’em, Tag zwei Beim mittlerweile vierten USD 1.500-No-Limit-Hold’em-Event waren die 187 Spieler für Tag zwei bereits im Geld und diesmal waren auch noch ein paar bekanntere Namen vertreten, wie beispielsweise Team-PokerStars-Pro Luca Pagano, Freddy Deeb, Aaron Kanter, Danny Wong, Isaac Haxton oder Dag Martin Mikkelsen. Ganz nach vorn reichte es für die meisten von ihnen allerdings nicht. Luca Pagano schied auf Platz 149 aus, Mikkelsen wurde 138. (beide kassierten USD 3.340), Freddy Deeb 80. (USD 6.012) und Isaac Haxton erwischte es auf Rang 66 (USD 7.014). Kanter und Wong werden wir dagegen am Final Table wiedersehen. 2005 bekam Aaron Kanter den Spitznamen „The Big Killer“ verpasst. Er spielte damals einen sensationellen Main Event und bugsierte unter anderem Titelverteidiger Greg Raymer sowie Phil Ivey aus dem Turnier. Damals hatte er sich online qualifiziert, belegte schließlich den vierten Platz und kassierte USD 2.000.000 Preisgeld. Zwar spielte er auch danach immer wieder Liveturniere, sein Geld verdient er allerdings weiter beim Onlinepoker. Am Freitag machte er jetzt aber wieder bei der WSOP auf sich aufmerksam und hat den Sprung an den Finaltisch beim USD 1.500 No-Limit Hold’em geschafft. Mit 200.000 in Chips ist er allerdings der Shortstack und hat zudem harte Konkurrenz. Danny Wong aus Los Angeles zum Beispiel, der in seiner noch jungen Karriere schon fast zwei Millionen an Preisgeldern abgeräumt hat. Darunter ein zweiter Platz beim Main Event des Bellagio Cup II im Jahr 2006 für USD 561.115 sowie Siege beim Five Diamond World Poker Classic und bei der Turnierserie Legends of Poker 2007.
