There have been lots of pro-heavy tables this year and tonight is no exception.


According to my cable guide, the World Poker Tour won't be seen in Las Vegas at 6pm PDT. Instead, we'll have to wait until 9pm. If this is true elsewhere in the West, there will be quite a few upset posters.

Nice tape on those logos.

Also, Tony's starting stack is hilarious to look at. What's that.. 6 chips?

LOL. tonite we have the oldest player to ever make a WPT final table last time we had the youngest, what luck!

I'm surprised they made Harrington tape over the Red Sox logo, but Gavin Smith's FTP shirt is allowed.

[Infinite1]

Doyles room shirt is of course uncovered too.

Sorenson's WSOP bracelet wasn't stud/8 but just stud (it was on TV and they'd never show stud/8 on tv...)

Okay now that the nitpicking is over.

Anyway if I can walk and am playing at a good enough level to make a WPT final table at 81 I'll take it for sure.

Sidenote--who'd ever believe in this era there'd be a televised poker final table where Gavin Smith was the "young gun"?

This was the after the WPT allowed logos at the table, problem is that it was for online poker sites, not sports teams. They've taped over baseball caps the other times someone has worn them at the table.

Whats with the tape on the hats? Harrington's hat isn't even a sponsor. Its a Red Sox hat.
