Michael Carroll FT'ed in the 2005 3k NLHE.

Pretty anonymous final group. LOL that a guy from Perth Ontario is in the group. If it is the place I am thinking, it's an itty bitty stain on the map.

David 'Chino' Rheem is a pro...he has a FT in the mixed holdem event this year. Him and Matusow were at the same table earlier, apparently taking turns rolling over the table for a while

With a unfathomable need to get the eyebrows worked. It'd be like making out with ScarJo and finding out she has fucking dog breath.

Someone on FCP made a great point.

What if the final 9 all decided to chop it up??
Not even showing up to play the FT.

Something like $3.4 million per.


And they all just show up in November to split the $ up and have a great laugh at Harrahs expense. It wont happen, but that would be AWESOME if they did.


How long is the delay gonna be between the playing of the FT and the airing? I forget.

They have something like 20 hours to edit down the footage and get it ready for air.
