1- Scott Montgomery has a blog?2- You (or anyone else) read it?I think Daniel bet on Eastgate also.Most of Montgomery's blogs are bad beat stories. He is annoying. -
Probably wouldn't want to mention this if you're at his table on day 2a. It might distract him and prevent him from playing his best poker. (from Bluff magazine) WSOP: Day 1a Chipleader Eric Cloutier Facing 15 Felony Charges * Brett Abel | July 4, 2009 at 5:44 pmEric Cloutier has a mountain of chips and, apparently, a mountain of legal troubles back home.With the fame and glory of being a standout player at the World Series of Poker comes a major spotlight.The attention Eric Cloutier, chip leader after Day 1a of the Main Event, will receive may not be the type he wants, however.According to reports, Cloutier was arrested in February on more than 500 charges and will be arraigned in Louisiana court on 15 felony charges. Some of the charges include money laundering and tax fraud.Cloutier, originally from Mont-Laurier, Quebec, went to Louisiana to play hockey for the Louisiana IceGators as a left wing in 1997 and played there for two seasons. He is now the owner of Marley’s Sports Bar and Karma nightclub, both in downtown Laffayette, La.The Alcohol and Tobacco Control of Louisiana arrested the 34-year-old on Feb. 26 after he allegedly tampered with cash registers to veil and incorrectly report his sales, according to The Daily Advertiser, a Lafayette newspaper.He faces 15 charges, which was lowered from 505 originally, said Laura Gerdes, public outreach coordinator for the Attorney General’s Office. The charges include laundering more than $100,000, four counts of filing false public records related to business taxes with the Louisiana Department of Revenue and one count of filing false public records with the Louisiana Alcohol Tobacco and Control office.According to various reports, Cloutier is alleged to have laundered more than $1.4 million over a three-year period and was arrested after a nine-month investigation.ATC officials told KALB-TV the more than 500 initial charges include two counts of felony theft — over $126,000 — as well as 340 counts of obstruction of justice, 92 counts of filing false records and 67 counts of computer fraud.KADN, a television news station in Lafayette, reported he allegedly set up his registers at both businesses to not account for state and local taxes, which is what resulted in the tax fraud charges.Cloutier’s arraignment will be on Aug. 18 in Lafayette. The ATC has also filed charges against Cloutier. He will need to return Louisiana by July 14 to appear in court in Baton Rouge. The Main Event ends on July 15, Day 8, with the final nine players, who would return to the Rio Hotel in Noevember for a live broadcast of the final table.The first day of the $10,000 World Championship No Limit Hold’em (Event 57) began Friday with the first of four Day 1s. Day 2A, which is when Cloutier will play again, begins on Tuesday.

Our last home game had an unusual run of set over set. We don't even have a shuffle machine, so I'm pretty sure the Copags were rigged.

Title says "...2008...", but isn't this 2009?

Best Trip Report ever.Hoping that 2010 is my first WSOP. Wish I still golfed.

So, basically you're guessing that he couldn't do it anymore when he was 22, because he suddenly and unexpectedly left his house for the first time in 5 years?i have a friend who was able to do it when he was younger (17 or so). by the time he was like 22 he couldn't do it anymore. i think its just a flexibility thing as he isn't very well endowed. -
The IP isn't going to help your cause at all. It's the dive you stay at if you're in Vegas for a bachelor party and you don't want to waste any valuable Spearmint Rhino cash on a hotel room.

Definitely value bet river. I just looked at it more now that we're in break.Maybe it's the drugs and/or alcohol, but that was a fast hour.5,107 chips...338 of 635gla.Cool, thanks for the info. As for the hand...nice hand. I maybe make a small bet on the river hoping to get called light. Otherwise, well done sir. GL and hope to see you at the FT. -

TY.Received and in.I'm 1-for-2 when staked (and I paid the win out in FCP stakes), so hopefully I'll make FCP and the Big East proud. Sadly, it's more likely that I'll *^#%ed on the river.

I'm running poorly, and I went to 'Cuse, so my chances may be slim.On the other hand, I was wearing my original "Villanova 1985 National Champs" t-shirt during this years semi's while I was at a great bar in New Orleans, so that may count for something.Giving away 2 stakes, NSB, to the 5.50 6max on stars @ 615e. I'll chose by 5:45 and will be shipping from my friends name. Post why I should give you teh steak. -
Burying the map sounds risky. I'd burn it, just to be safe.Now do i keep a map to the booty in my safety deposit box in case I ever get amnesia?Of course not, bury the map as well for protection from thieves! -
I may be wrong, but I think after Bush/Frist/Goodlette made their clumsy attempt at implementing UIGEA the WSOP stopped accepting all third-party registrations. Once that small part of the Bush disaster is cleaned up, the WSOP could easily reverse that policy.Does Tilt give you money and expect you to register yourself? -
Gotta be smart enough to only accept the offers from Uganda.

They had a huge party for the tourney draw on Thursday night. Common sense says hire a car or get a room for the night. I'm guessing he could afford either.

I love that he survived a series of near-impossible freerolls, but didn't know what he was playing for.I wonder if he knows that he'll have to pay income tax on his prize package?

TARP cost about 245 billion, almost all of which has been repaid or is on track to be repaid.The entire US budget in 2010 was about 3.55 trillion.The poker bust is still horse---- though.
