Tournament
Report
'Layout
of green, red aces too, USPC
, he�s captured you�...�Flakes�
aka �Johnny World� is sitting
on top of the world tonight,
after playing through three
days of white heat to become
the USPC No-Limit Hold�em
Champion! Not bad for a first
time no-limit hold�em tournament
win for Johnny World, as he
is coasting away with a Harley
Davidson motorcycle, a Rolex
watch, a trophy, a whole lot
of cash and the much coveted
title of USPC Champion. Very
gentle, always in control,
nonchalant, yet gutsy, like
an $80,000 call to win with
a king high...John entertained
us with a show that was out
of this world. Outside of
poker, John likes.. poker...other
interests include..poker..and
with his beer, he likes...poker.
What else is there? �And I
say to myself, what a wonderful
poker world....oh yeah!�
Even
Phil Hellmuth Jr. had high
regards for the heads up play
between Johnny World and Erik
Seidel. Thank you Phil, for
the final table play-by-play.
In
just 14 short years, Erik
Seidel has climbed the poker
ladder of success, and today
he was elevated one wrung
higher by taking 2nd place
at the USPC, where the �top
guns� of poker came to compete.
Erik enjoys travel, music
and tennis, and is respected
as one of the movers and shakers
of poker.
�Don�t
go all-in with two 7�s� says
Eric Buchman, who placed 3rd,
and a very admirable 4th went
to Hyun �Charlie� Bae, as
it was his first no-limit
hold�em final table.
A
most sincere congratulations
and thank you to all who participated
in the USPC tournament!
Tom
Gitto, Room Manager and Dave
Marshall, Tournament Director....great
job! You�ve made us all very
proud!
