Cloutier gets his bracelet back, Bodog’s looking for a new pro and players threaten a Bellagio boycott. Those stories and more in today’s jaunt through the pokerverse, the PTPN HNR for 1/28/10.

Bodog’s been shedding their roster lately, with the current total of team Bodog currently consisting of two names – David Williams and Evelyn Ng. They’re apparently looking to bump that number a bit, according to Bluff – if you’re a woman, you could be the next Bodog pro. Interested? Here’s what you do: Send your Bodog user name, a pic and a brief bio to pro@bodog.com.

It would probably help if you looked a bit like this:

Live poker news: Hoyt Corkins emerged victorious at the final table of the Southern Poker Championship today. Interview and recap at WPT here.

Moving west a bit, poker players are apparently perturbed at the Bellagio for offering an unusually large amount of rebuy tournaments in the preliminary event schedule for this years Five Diamond Classic. More on the issues players have with the 17 planned rebuy events at Pokerati here.

Rush Poker rolls on; Pauly’s got a funny imagining of the life of a Rush Poker addict over at Tao of Poker here.

Speaking of Full Tilt, the Million Dollar Cash Game is airing now. Below is Part 1 of Season 4 / Episode 4:

Cake Poker is giving T.J. back his bracelet. So says the room in their official blog here. Excerpt: “As much as we would love to have a WSOP bracelet, or even award it to one of our cherished poker players, we can’t, in good conscience, keep it from the man who rightfully won it; which is why we’ve decided to return it to TJ Cloutier… just as soon as we’re done having some fun with it”

Play at Ladbrokes? Looks like personal data of customers has been stolen. The room says banking info wasn’t taken, but who knows. Read more here.

Rush Poker is still all the rage. You can only play Rush at Full Tilt Poker, but before you sign up at FTP, make sure you READ THIS.
