This Week in Poker: Big Names Dominate
This week in tournament poker, the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure concluded with poker pro Jonathan Duhamel making four final tables and earning over $1.2 million. John Dibella won the Main Event and Leonid Bilokur won the High Roller. Freddy Deeb won the first World Series of Poker Circuit Main Event of 2012, and WSOP Circuit events continue this week, along with the Aussie Millions.
Winners and Losers: PCA Winners, Criminal Court Losers, and Rebellions (sort of)
With PCA in the rear view mirror, the poker community turns its attention Down Under, toward the Aussie Millions. Formerly a Full Tilt sponsored event, the tournament series is the biggest in Australia, with a prize pool that last year resulted in a $2 million first prize for their Main Event. Before that tournament really gets underway though, we get the opportunity to look at the winners from PokerStars annual poker festival. In other news, it seemed like a lot of legal issues continue to linger, but it’s not exactly what you think. You’ll have to look at this week’s losers to figure out what went on.
Freddy Deeb and Faraz Jaka Give Opponents the Business, with Style
Sometimes in the poker world, we become so preoccupied with the fact a player is winning, that we don’t often give enough attention to how they do it. Two exceptions to this rule remind how entertaining poker players can be. Professional poker players are – or can be – brand names, and last week, Faraz Jaka and Freddy Deeb displayed their brand of excellence. Faraz Jaka played his way to a third place finish in the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event and Freddy Deeb won his first-ever World Series of Poker Circuit Ring in the WSOPC Main Event at the Bicycle Casino.
Rematches and Redemption
Rematches are compelling. Perhaps it is the appeal of getting a second chance to succeed or an opportunity to learn from mistakes. Perhaps it is because the more familiar the foes, the more potential there is for meta-level thinking and well thought-out battle plans. Or perhaps it is just because we are a culture preoccupied with sequels. Never content for a story to end, we always want to know what happens next.
