| Report |
A record 279
players saddled up to run in the second Seven-Card Stud High-Low
(Eight-or-Better) championship at this year’s World Series of Poker.
The final table included one former gold bracelet winner –
Jennifer Harman, a two-time champion. Furthermore, Lance Edelman was making his
second consecutive final table appearance in this event. But it was former
Hollywood actor (and widely respected tournament semi-pro) Chad Brown who
enjoyed the chip lead and seemed poised to win his first WSOP title.
As
he snapped on the gold and diamond bracelet presented to all WSOP winners,
Ethier was visibly thrilled with his victory. When asked why he left
horseracing in favor of poker, Ethier joked, “I got tired of losing.”
“I had a lot of winners…..but I had a lot of losers, too,” he
said. “I got tired of losing money every day, so I started to play poker,
instead.”
When asked what he plans to do with his coveted gold
bracelet, Ethier stated that he plans to give it to his son. “He’s my
best buddy,” Ethier said..
