Title: Ruthless Ruthenberg
Post by: snoopy1239 on September 16, 2008, 01:19:16 PM
Congratulations to EPT champ Sebastian Ruthenberg for winning Season Five's opening event in Barcelona. He seemed like a very solid player and a nice chap too boot.

For those that missed the action and would like to read a recap of events, then please check out my tournament report by clicking the link below:

Loved the bit about Fossilman and the dress code.  Wonder if he'll try the regulation shorts/sandals combo in London too.

Well, I think he would have struggled in the past, but I believe the Vic loosened the rules for dress-codes recently. I recall the local shoe shop did particularly well a couple of years back. Ian (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=173) Frazer (http://www.blondepoker.com/blondepedia/blondepedia_view_player.php?player_id=173) was told he couldn't get into Luton last month because of a rip in his jeans, so he borrowed some duct tape, stuck it across the rip and then waltzed in. Silly really.

Caught your question being put to Negreanu on the stars radio show :)

Yes, it was one of my more probing questions. Can't believe he denied it, I have video evidence! In fact, Negreanu's a few feet away from me now as I write. I think I'll confront him about it.
