I was thinking I might cash out this afternoon.  Just what I need is a passed law locking me away from my $$.

I've heard 7.  But it has to depend on the way they're shuffled, IMO.

It is ensured by seven.

Hopefully, I'm not too late.  I just emptied my sportsbook and poker accounts.

Although my gut feeling is that this doesn't pass, based on the exceptions for internet lotteries and on-line horse race betting.

Stupid government.

Wow.  A lot of good players with a lot of chips.  I guess it does reward overall poker skill better than other games.

I would love to watch that table....

You gotta believe ESPN is filming tonight.  Granted, it won't air for another month or two...

[ice grillin you]

doyel finished in 8th after being crippled by calling an all in and losing a coin flip...gthen he was busted two hands later

ivey finished 3rd after someone  called his all in with a straight flush draw and hit

its now down to bloch and reese...whove been heads up for 8 hours...bloch had a near 6-1 chip lead at one point....reese has since doubled up twice and now has a 4-3  lead...

i hope espn does this table justice when they air it...
