With the final table set in the 2009 WSOP, we are now left asking which if the final nine can win this thing. We have had a curious eye on online poker heavy-weight player Phil Ivey and he is now poised to show the world what he can do.
One thing is that Ivey is on the lower end of the chip stack as he has 9,765,000 chips while the leader, Darvin Moon has 58,930,000 chips. Now that is quite a difference, but we have all seen what Ivey can do and there is no doubt that he will be well prepared and give it his all. Many know him as the face of Full Tilt Poker. He started playing at a very young age and entered the big time in 2000 in his first WSOP tournament. He finished 5th in the $2,000 No-Limit Texas Hold’em tourney and then sat down with some poker big wigs, among them was Phil Hellmuth, for the $2,500 Pot-Limit Omaha contest. While many would be very intimidated, Ivey walked away with his first Bracelet and thus started the legend that is Ivey. From that point on, he has been kicking ass and taking names. With total winnings of around $7 million, hs is always someone to be feared at the table.

What a great night with some of the best sluggers in baseball going at it tonight in the 2009 Home Run Derby. Round 1 must have seemed to last forever for Nelson Cruz and Prince Fielder who both belted out 11 homers in the opening round. That’s because there was a three way hit off with Albert Pujols, Carlos Pena and Joe Mauer who all hit 5 homers in the first round. With nothing too exciting happening, Albert Pujols, the hometown favorite was able to get a little help from a fan who leaned over and helped one of his hits over the fence. Not that he was not awesome, but we don’t think he would have made it out of the round without that help.
With the second round just ending, it’s between Fielder and Cruz who are both looking strong. We are putting our money on Prince Fielder as he seemed to come alive in round two and we think it will continue into the finals.
There’s still time to get in at one of the online sportsbooks and the lines are pretty even at this point.
The guys around the office have not been able to stop talking about tonights UFC 100. We have been waiting for this for a while and can’t wait to see the headliner event which is a rematch between UFC Heayweight Champion Brock Lesnar and the UFC Interim Heavyweight Champion Frank Mir.
The last time these two met up it appeared that Lesnar had the bout in the bag and was well on his way to another victory. But in the last few minutes, Mir was able to get Lesnar in a leg hold in which he had to tap out of. Looking at Brock Lesnar, you can’t help but think about what will happen to the other guy. This guy is a physical specimen that is amazing. But Mir is a very experienced and knows how to prepare, so this should be pretty amazing.
