Default Re: God helped Jerry Yang win WSOP!

The irony just strikes me as hilarious to hear about a Jerry Yang calling for a god to win a poker tourny. Anyone from UConn here? I ask because my biotech prof was a Jerry Yang. Oddly enough, he headed the first group to successfully clone cattle from non embryonic cells. Not the type of man to be calling on a god to grant luck.

Also, to reiterate from another thread pondering religion in poker. Why would God be granting favors for a sin? That's the biggest mystery. I seriously doubt the Christian/Judean God needs to extort a percentage of Yangs winnings to conduct the daily business. That God would not condone that thought process which concludes a follower could enter the tourny to pay the whatever percentage tribute.
