Euro Poker Year Review -- December 2010Gus Hansen Wins Big, Ladbrokes Aims High, and Daragh Thomas Bows Out |
|
Player of the Month: Gus Hansen completes a great year with victory in the Full Tilt Poker Million in London.
Quote of the Month: Michael Piper realises he’s just thrown himself to the lions in the form of British comedian Jimmy Carr. “Oh fuck. Fuck fuck fuck. Really? Fuck! OK, my shoes are untied. God, I wish I knew I was gonna be on stage earlier, I wouldn’t have dressed like a poor schmuck! FUCK, my undershirt isn’t tucked in at all, I must look like a huge slob. OK, do I have any bogeys? I don’t think I have any bogeys. I’ll just stop in the toilets on the way, though. FUCK! Fuck fuck fuck fuck. OK, SHOWTIME BABY!”
Story of the Month: Ladbrokes confirms approach to buy 888.com.
Hand of the Month: For a cool million bucks Gus Hansen makes an equally cool call in the Poker Million. “With a slight chip lead, Hansen raised, [Tony] Bloom moved all in, and Hansen called. Hansen flipped over A-8 and Bloom showed A-6. An 8 came down on the flop and Hansen stayed ahead to be crowned champion.”
Blog of the Month: Long time Card Player writer Daragh Thomas bows out with his final blog entry
