Cantu gets tased, Galfond drops down and new developments in the Andreas Oscarsson case – it’s the PTP HNR for 11/23.
PokerListing founder Andreas Oscarsson’s murder continues to evolve into an increasingly strange and twisted narrative with no clear resolution in site. Pokerati’s got a quality summary of the current state of the case. Did you know 95% of violent crime in Sweden goes unsolved?
On the lighter side of things, Daniel Negreanu’s got a list of his top-ten non-poker moments posted on his blog. Review the list and see if we’re crazy for thinking at least 60% of these non-poker moments do, in fact, involve poker (or at least gambling).
On the taser-er side of things, here’s a great video of Brandon Cantu being put down by the pocket shocker as a result of losing a prop bet:
News from the world of high stakes: Phil Galfond continues to chronicle his adventures as a newly-minted midstakes grinder on his blog at Bluefire poker (read our Bluefire review here).
Galfond, along with fellow online phenom Andrew Robl were both called in as a last minute replacement for High Stakes Poker. Both made the trip (according to Galfond’s blog and Bluff, respectively), but no word on who they were replacing or how they did, although Robl sounds a lot more positive than Galfond.
The Isildur1 watch continues: he’s (as of this morning) $1.359.813,33 in the black from Oct 1st to present.
Tournament news: The Venetian has released their new live tournament schedule; details here.
