Of the Paris Hilton sex tape fame?

Not sure what's sadder. That that Rick Solomon made it that far or that I don't know the name of the guy in Paris Hilton's sex tape. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I have no idea whether the allegations about Annie Duke from Negreanu or anyone else are accurate, but I played with her all day yesterday and she was a class act: very friendly with everyone at the table, more critical of her own play than anyone else's, etc. She was willing to talk to me at the end of the day about a pot we played, offer her thoughts on alternate lines I could have taken, and even tell me how she would have responded to various actions on my part.

Moreover, she came over to me at the end of the second break today to check in and see how I was doing and congratulated me and offered some words of encouragement when I busted out. I have a very high opinion of her based on my experiences, but I have no idea whether those other stories are true or not. I hope those of you who have never met her will at least suspend judgment.

They're going to play 2 more levels and be over a day ahead of schedule.

Always there to bring a classy point of view to the muck.

Congrats on a great finish Andrew.

They can't actually finish the tournament a day early, can they? Why are they getting so far ahead of schedule instead of just stopping early today?

Does anyone feel like reposting or linking Vehn's response to Annie from a few years back? I could use a good laugh.

They can't when they're offering a PPV on Thursday. Their wisdom (or lack thereof) is to get more poker in now, just in case things slow down later on.

They can always have it sped up so much that they go from 27 to 9 on Tuesday and give the Final Table the day off on Wednesday to prep for the big day.

Wouldn't surprise me at this point.
