GOD BLESS THE GAMBLERS OF AMERICA - 7/10/07

I never thought it was possible, but Phil Hellmuth is no longer the world's coolest poker player. That title now belongs to Erick Lindgren, a man that could easily dominate the Tour de France in a goddamn wheelchair.

Watch these videos (or at least the top one) I found at pokernews.com



The aftermath...


Here was my favorite part from the article:

"Reportedly, an issue came up during the third round questioning what would happen if Erick shot exactly 100 in any round. The two parties realized they could not come to an agreement on the issue, and agreed that if Lindgren shot exactly 100 in any round, they would flip a coin – for the whole $300,000+. Gamblers indeed."

I'm jealous.
