similar to a guy named 'moneymaker' winning in '03, poker couldn't have scripted this win better. (well, maybe doyle or ivey).

reese winning the first $50k h.o.r.s.e. tourney is going to catapult it to the "new" granddaddy event even faster.

obviously, the main event will always be huge due to the prize pool alone...but the 'best player in the world' title will go to the winner of this bracelet year after year from here on out.

So true, so true. It's also fitting than he [Chip] has long been recognized as the Best Overall PLayer in the World to this date and he is the one who won it.

Chip doesn't play many tournaments. He said he is only going to play the H.O.R.S.E. event and the main event this year. He is the consummate professional. There is no one better. Period.

That's great. I was hoping Chip would win it. Is this his first bracelet?

Nope, 3rd.

3rd bracelet, he won a 7 card stud and stud hi/lo in the late 70's.
