Participate In World Team Poker Event – Part 1

Lou Krieger, a celebrated author of books regarding the art of poker stated that, “I believe in poker the way I believe in the American Dream. Poker is very good for you. It enriches the soul, sharpens up the intellect, manages to heal the spirt and when played to perfection, fills the wallet.”

On May 19th at The Golden Nugget, nine Americans hoping to make that quote and the American dream a reality will join forces together as Team USA in the inaugural World Team Poker Event.

On April 5th, 2010 the roster for the prestigious event was announced and includes the monikers of some serious talent. Lead by Team Owner Phil Hellmuth Jr. and Team Captain Doyle Brunson, the American dream chasers will combine forces to battle some of the best players from competing nations.

Looking for pairs on the table? Well, there’s no doubt that team America will have at least one pair backing them up. The fantastic brother and sister pair of Howard Lederer and Annie Due are now well know as two of Team America’s all-stars. Duke, the double XX chromosome of the pair holds the title of the 2010 NBC National Heads-Up Poker Champion and also managed to walk away as the champion of the 2004 WSOP Tournament of Champions. Of course due to sibling rivalry Lederer can’t let his sister show him up and has therefore banked over five million dollars in tournament winnings throughout his poker playing career. Lederer also holds 2 WSOP bracelets.

The red, white and blue team consits of some great names, including Jennifer Harman, Allen Cunningham, Chris Ferguson, Mike Matusow and Erik Seidel.

Even the young are able to go after the American Dream and Cunningham is a true statement to that. Cunningham, at the age of only 33, has already managed to take home 5 WSOP* bracelets and ranks in the top ten on the all-time poker money list.

If you aren’t part of a team, then why not have a go yourself at Internet Poker. You can enjoy all sorts of different games including Full Tilt Rakeback and Everest Poker.

Blue Hawaii $3.65 Elvis Presley’s seventh film was the first of his “Hawaii trilogy” (including Girls! Girls! Girls! and Paradise, Hawaiian Style). While its story is daft–the King has just been released from his Army posting in Italy and returned to the islands, where he’s trying to avoid working in his father’s fruit business–the music is not: “Blue Hawaii,” “Almost Always True,” and the beautiful “Can’t Help F…

High Fidelity $5.07 Transplanted from England to the not-so-mean streets of Chicago, the screen adaptation of Nick Hornby’s cult-classic novel High Fidelity emerges unscathed from its Americanization, idiosyncrasies intact, thanks to John Cusack’s inimitable charm and a nimble, nifty screenplay (cowritten by Cusack).

The Little Mermaid (Fully Restored Special Edition) [VHS] $8.90 From the moment that Prince Eric’s ship emerged from the fog in the opening credits it was apparent that Disney had somehow, suddenly recaptured that “magic” that had been dormant for thirty years.

Ariel ca…

The Princess and The Frog (Three Disc Combo: Blu-ray/DVD + Digital Copy) $23.95 After the visual bombast of many contemporary CG and motion-capture features, the drawn characters in The Princess and the Frog, the Walt Disney Studio’s eagerly awaited return to traditional animation, feel doubly welcome.
