Todays
controversial topic at the WSOP was the old chestnut of tax on winnings.
Apparently Julian Gardner, Bruce Corman and Steffan from
Sweden, a player and media room colleague, were picked up from tournaments and
told they could not play here again until they paid taxes on last years
winnings.
Julian and Bruce returned to play. Steffan left after
informing us he had been staying at the Rio for a week so why did they wait
until he was playing in a tournament?
ESPN demanded that the HORSE
tournament play down to 9 yesterday .Well they played until 9am to reach 9. As
a result the media room was a lonely place although with plenty of coffee for
once. As I write Andy Bloch is playing Chip Reese heads up. Both players are
guaranteed at least $1m. The final table has only lasted 4 hours considerably
under the media room 8hrs over/under line. Of course with $3m each in chips the
game could last another 4 hours.
Harry Demetriou has another final
table appearance to add to his CV. This time in the 6 handed tournie. Aussie M.
Guttman is the chip leader. Another tax problem? They don't call Harry "the
wise owl" for nothing.
