No WSOP for me :(

Oh well, I tried and failed.  The last chance I had for qualifying in what is bound to be the largest Hold-'Em poker tournament in history ended in a heads-up (one-on-one game) last night with my K9 being pummelled by an AQ hitting a straight.  Denied!

Still, I can blame my Nottingham landlord for promising to get broadband piped into the flat I am

You managed to get down to being heads up, with the winner going to the WSOP main event? That's a damn fine result even if you didn't win, good work.

Actually, not quite. It was a double shootout event. 81 people (or as many as sign up, less last night as it happened) all pay $160 and nine tables start rolling. The winner from each table then plays off in a final table and the winner of that one goes to the WSOP

Some you win...
