Anyone want to kick in $50, name a player each and the first player to be eliminated wins his backer the cash ?

I'm going with John Duthie. I'll take action with anyone who posts within an hour of this post.

In less than 3 hours of coverage, Pokernews has already mentioned twice that seven women are in the event.

Pretty much equals the number of hands they've reported on as well.

Seriously, what kind of reporting is this?

"The Magnificant Seven"

Out of 148 entries in the $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. Event, there are a group of ladies we'll call "The Magnificant Seven." They are seven of the most beautiful and fabulous poker players on earth:

- Jennifer Harman Traniello
- Annie Duke
- Cyndy Violette
- Kristy Gazes
- Isabelle Mercier
- Jerri Thomas
- Maureen Feduniak

These ladies are like fine wine, they continue to get better with time. It's a pleasure to watch them.

Actually, they've mentioned 3 hands and only reported on two. Everything else is local color stuff.

I like these kind of stories better than hand histories:

[ QUOTE ]
Chad Brown Upset Over Error
After a dealer error that resulted in a river card having to be re-dealt, "Downtown" Chad Brown claimed the mistake cost him half the pot as his nut low was counterfeited. Eli Elezra and Cyndy Violette ended up chopping the pot, however it should be noted that the new river card would not have counterfeited an already pat nut-low. Whether Brown is unfamiliar with what constitutes a nut-low hand, or was just getting upset to prove his point remains to be seen, but what is for certain is that he is still a bit irritated.

Small Change Maybe, But it's Mine
David Grey wants his change, Now! Evidently the dealer took a little too long to give Grey his change from the pot (about 2000) and he was making a point of it. Bari Sklar decided to be the peace-maker and induce an apology. He wasn't making much progress and Bill Gazes just wanted to move to another table rather than listen to the banter. Sam Farha took the opportunity to lean back in his chair and relax. "Come on David, just apologize to the dealer. It's only 2,000 anyway." "I don't care, it's my 2,000," Grey said. Back and forth, until Bill Gazes finally asked the floor if he could move to another table. The dealer continued to deal, and all settled back into playing their cards. Sklar mumbled, "it was only 2,000." Grey just ignored him and went on to play the next hand.
