Title: British Bracelet Mania on the Poker Show next week Post by: TightEnd on June 26, 2009, 02:58:30 PM This week The Poker Show gears up for ‘The Big One’ — the World Series of Poker main event. Presenters Jesse May and Matt Broughton will catch up with a host of British hopefuls including recent pot-limit hold’em bracelet winner John Kabbaj, Dave “Devilfish” Ulliott, Ian Frazer, serial staker Neil Channing, and comedian and ‘triple crown’ victor Roland De Wolfe.
Flying the Irish flag is co-presenter Padraig Parkinson, who recently finished 14th in the pot-limit Omaha world championship. He makes his daily call to the show with all the news and gossip from the Rio hotel and casino in Las Vegas. Fellow countryman John O’Shea will also drop in for a chat. Tuesday sees the return of the weekly Poker Show Live turbo bounty tournament on Boylepoker.com which has $250 added, with guests, presenters and listeners vying for supremacy in this password-only tournament. Last week the winner of the turbo tournament was “Faughballagh” who is none other than Boylepoker pro and World Series of Poker main event finalist Scott Gray. Last week’s shows have been archived in full at http://www.boylesports.com/sections/poker/d.asp?show=ThePokerShow_Archives and included Daniel Negreanu, Isaac Haxton, and Marty Smyth. Fans can grab the individual interviews at http://thepokershowlive.com/listenagain.htm and also check out the controversial interviews with Tom “Durrrr” Dwan and Luke “_FullFlush1_” Schwartz which are still proving wildly popular downloads.
