Awesome promo. Only 150 players, eh? You had worse odds winning the Aruba seat. GL.

Yup... and the top 3 win this (and the Top 10 get something). The Aruba Poker Pro tourney was winner take all. Or did you mean actually winning the Aruba seat? Even the WSOP seat I won was 1 in 60...

I've been waiting for literally 7 months for 150 people to qualify. I was in the #10-#12 group (3 of us won my tourney) way back in November.

This is news to me. I have an ipod shuffle now and was actually planning on getting a Nano just for the WSOP.

I imagine they wanted this to happen much earlier. From what I hear UB's been having massive problems and just now is getting its shit back together. Maybe it's been so long everybody forgot about it except you

When you add up the value of this package, it would end up being my second biggest win ever, but not by much.... and it would be my biggest if you factor in the fact that I don't have to split with anyone.

Well, I say that, but "stolz" and I have agreed to give the other guy the $5k cash if either of us finished in the Top 3.

So, gooooooooo stolz!!!

Steve Stolzman - a friend that bdawg and I made in Aruba and hung out with in the Bahamas a bit. He's a great guy.... father of John Stolzman, who was at the time the youngest winner of a WPT Event. Great episode, btw, if you can find it for download somewhere. Steve (having backed John for 50% of him in the tourney) got a bit of airtime too.

He also got some tv time at last year's WSOP when he was at the feature table with Hellmuth. He's an excellent player.
