Johnny Chan is now poised to make his 11th bracelet

Not to be outdone by the Poker Brat, Johnny Chan is chip leader at a final Omaha PL table.

He may just get his 11th bracelet and take some of the spotlight away from conceited Phil.

I guess we should suggest a poker forum. Cuz poker sure ain't no sport.
Don't get me wrong. I love the game and I enjoy playing.

Of course, this is probably the closest match for poker discussions.

Quite a few people could argue against that. If a sport is dictated by a game of competition than it's definitely a sport. And it has a huge spectator base. Playing 12-16 hours straight trying to make every move perfect is very fatigueing.

But I get what you are saying. If you want, I won't post about poker. It's no big deal to me. I'm somewhat fanatical about it and may be the only one.

Hope he gets it and then Doyle gets his. In due time either Allen Cunningham or Phil Ivey will pass them.

I'm with you. I think Cunningham will do better in the long run than Ivey. The kid is goofy but he can play. Makes great decisions under pressure.

Now I hope Chan get's 15 this year... I'm a Chan Fan.

[Woogie]

I am rooting for him, just to irritate Phil.

I think the Poker Tournament Forum would be a better fit, but being from Arkansas, what do I know.

A. Very little.



I don't know about poker, but chess is damn sure a sport


Anyway, I hope Chan wins a whole bunch more and kicks Phil's butt.

It's not public though. That's all.
