The ‘poker brat’ is on the verge of yet another big cash result and, maybe, another title. Phil Hellmuth is sitting pretty, second in chips, in the Bay 101 Shooting Star event. Hellmuth is a whisker behind chip leader Andy Seth after leading for the majority of the first three days.
Seth has been in hot form during the final stages of play. The chip leader has already sent Lou Diamond and Scotty Nguyen to the rail and is in confident mood as the remaining six players take to their seats today.
Seth told the WPT; “I’m going to keep trying to do what I’ve been doing.

Jucatorul profesionist de golf si protagonistul unui scandal sexual, Tiger Woods a refuzat oferta de sponsorizare a celor de la Paddy Power. Paddy Power, compania mama a celor mai populare camere de poker din Irlanda, a declarat ca i-a oferit lui Woods un contract de $75 milioane.
Woods, dupa ce a fost prins pe picior gresit de sotia sa care a intentat divort, a suferit financiar foarte mult pentru ca sponsorii principali si-au retras ofertele. Dar, in ciuda acestor lucruri, Tiger nu a fost de acord cu oferta propusa de gigantii irlandezi de pariuri.
Paddy Power este bine cunoscuta pentru publicitatea agresiva si senzationala, asa ca aceasta propunere a FOST serioasa. Ei nu se vor lasa si in cel mai scurt timp vor contacta din nou agentii lui Tiger.

Lorsque les résidents plutôt âgés du centre “The Twin Falls Home” situé dans l’Idaho ont pris leur siège pour participer à leur tournoi de poker hebdomadaire, les vingt habitués ne s’attendaient à ce que la police locale débarque dans l’immeuble pour mettre un terme à la fête. Pourtant c’est ce qui est arrivé à ces hommes pour visiblement leur dernier tournoi à $20.
Tandis que la partie est régulièrement sérieuse pour ces adeptes d’un certain âge, une règle établie entre eux stipulait que les vainqueurs devaient donner une majeure part de leurs gains au centre où ils vivent. Ils pensaient que cette règle les protégerait de toute illégalité. La police locale en avait quant à elle décidé autrement !

The robbery of the European Poker Tour in Berlin shook the poker world earlier this week and, we we go to press today, German police have announced they have no suspects or leads over the raid as yet.
The “Oceans 11″ style heist saw players and casino staff flee in fear of their lives as armed gunmen stormed the Hyatt hotel in Berlin. It was originally reported that the thieves got away with €1 million but subsequent reports are indicating the figure was a few hundred thousand Euros.
We have footage of the raid taking place in a video clip here

Golf pro’ and serial cheater, Tiger Woods, has rejected a sponsorship deal from Irish gaming giants Paddy Power. Paddy Power, parent company of one of the most popular online Irish poker rooms, is reported to have tabled a $75 million package to Woods.
Woods, under fire after allegations about his private life came to light, has suffered financially after several of his mainstream sponsors pulled out of their deals. But, despite that, Tiger wasn’t keen to accept the huge deal on offer from the Irish bookmaking giants.
Paddy Power are well known for their publicity stunts but it’s thought that the deal WAS a serious offer and the company are set to talk to Tiger’s agents again soon.
