The World Series of Poker 2006

Tags: , ,

I’ve always been a big fan of playin cards. In college I was a huge spades and pasoi player. I could start a game at 9pm and end the next morning around 6am. That has not changed a bit. The only thing that has changed is the type of game I play. Lately, its been all Texas Holdem. It seems to be the game of choice today.

Guam’s very own Santino Sgambelluri recently won the Paradise Poker Championships (Holdem Tourney) in the Bahamas, and he is now being sponsored to enter the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas this June. This is just huge for Guam. Im pretty sure he is the first from our island. A $10,000 buy-in with a chance to earn millions. I think the photo above is a aussie who won 7.5 million dollars at one of the holdem tourneys. What a rush it must be! I wish you the best of luck Santino! Six Seven One Represent!

    I think I made the wrong career choice!
