Well, my WSOP 2009 has come to an end and left me sick as a dog. I started feeling punky during the Ante Up for Africa tournament and went on a serious downslide since then. Stuffy nose, cough, headache. All around nasty cold. And to add insult to injury I got sick just as the Main Event was starting. I went in to play on Sunday, day 1c, after considering if there was any real possibility that I would be significantly better for Day 1d on Monday. I determined the answer was no after waking up on Sunday morning and was obviously right since it is now Tuesday and I am still sick sick sick. The weird thing is I actually played really well on Sunday just ran into some ugly hands and by ugly I mean opponents calling raises with K6 and hitting 66 both times. In one case my opponent called a big reraise with the hand. Bleh. That is why I love the main event! The good news is that Joe is still in with over 65K in chips heading into his day 2 tomorrow. My brother also lived to fight till day 2 and Erik Seidel is currently hanging on by his finger nails playing Day 1a. Chris Ferguson is still in as well. Lots of people to still root for
Sadly, Mike Matusows’s WSOP came to an end today as he got knocked out on day 2a. That is mainly sad because it means I won’t have another opportunity for a while to video him again. So as a parting gift, here is the last video I managed to capture of The Mouth before he headed off into the sunset. As an extra, you get a taste of Phil Hellmuth tilted by Matusow’s chicken wings. Yes, you heard that right. Chicken Wings. Is there nothing that won’t tilt Mr. Hellmuth?
