Wandering ‘Round the Room
Tuesday, June 2, 2009 - Gene Bromberg
I’ve been remiss in not mentioning the other UltimateBet pros who have been playing today. Matt Graham, who won his first bracelet during last year’s WSOP, is playing in today’s $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha event. And he’s among the 144 players still alive out of the 809 who started play today.
Annie Duke is playing in the $10,000 Seven-Card Stud World Championship (and apparently having a delightful time with Sam Grizzle sitting at her table):
And the newest UltimateBet pro, Liv Boeree, cashed in the $1,000 Stimulus No-Limit event. I overlooked the fact that Liv was still going strong in the Stimulus event until after Phil Hellmuth was knocked out of the Champions Invitational, and as I headed over to the Brasilia Room to take some pictures I learned that she’d just been knocked out. Now, I know that it’s downright impossible to believe that the words “overlooked” and ” Liv Boeree” could ever be used together, the mere idea is disturbingly alien. Rest assured, I will not let her slip past without me taking a few pictures and posting a few updates. Seriously, stop with the dirty looks, the muttered curses, the bags of dog doo thrown at my head. I’m terribly, terribly sorry.
