Tweets From the WSOP

The Twitter craze is in full force at the World Series of Poker, as poker pros aplenty are sharing their thoughts on the event, their performances and plenty of other random things. We searched through the various tweets to find some of the best comments from the WSOP, with our comments in parenthesis. Warning: plenty of non-poker content ahead.

Andy Bloch

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes… but what I really wanted for my birthday was a bracelet!

Todd Brunson

Gotta play tomorrow, so why am I still awake??????

Annie Duke

I’ll start with Marathon Man. Can you do better than Lawrence Olivier as a sadistic Nazi dentist? Really? I’ll throw that gauntlet down! (Lacking any big poker news, Duke decided to discuss her favorite movies.)

Marcel Luske

take of the mask and deal with reality, and you will see that the best have still to come …. (huh?)

Joe Sebok

go ike! go haxton! go ike! go haxton! math is idiotic! go ike! go haxton! (Sebok was rooting on Haxton in the $40K event, where he would eventually finish runner-up. Sebok and Haxton were one-time rivals after Sebok made a disparaging comment about online poker players.)

Annette Obrestad

Heading to the Airport. Will be in Vegas in 24 hours or so. YAY!

Shannon Shorr

Buying into the $40,000 event today with a Bellagio Cranberry and three Flags. I think it will sting less than forking up actual US cash.

Doyle Brunson

What the hell is this Death Match between me and Farrah Fawcett? have people gone crazy? She has pancreatic cancer..i’m healthy as a horse.

Erica Schoenberg

Just set foot in the Rio 4 the 1st time this year…smells like…Old Spice, B.O., and Doral smoke.. Ahhh the WSOP

Headed to the 1k NL event. I wasn’t gonna play but how can you resist a chance at such a HUGE first prize for 1k???

Phil Hellmuth

I am happy! I feel inspirational, a guy told me his mom lived 2 extra yrs becaure of me… Feels great!

I’m not mad @JeffreyPollack for denying NWP’s media credentials, just disappointed. I play $1k @ noon today. Updates here. Me so horny.

Jean Robert-Bellande

Dr Buss invited me to watch the Laker game at the dinner break. Go Lakers! Sitting on 6k in chips. (Tweet from the $1K)

Rafe Furst

#WSOP Omaha H/L fields r softer than low limit games on FullTiltPoker.com yet tomorrow’s NLH will draw over 6000. Tip: learn other games!

Daniel Negreanu

Sitting next to the funniest Filipino lady ever. She just asked me ‘why is Matusow always broke?’ ‘

Jeff Madsen

Fun fact : me and Shannon Shorr were born on the same day same year. Whattup blood brother

Maria Ho

Sick stats after dinner. 962 remaining in the 1k after 2900 started. That equals to more than 5 players busting a minute they said! Wowza!

Tiffany Michelle

I have returned to the scene of the crime at th Rio. Its early so the halls are empty as well as the registration line, thank God!

Layne Flack

Talk about spooky. I woke up with gavin smith looking over me without a shirt on. Must have been exausted. Fell asleep on his couch unti …

It’s game day, I’ve waited a year to redeem myself from last year, here goe’s nothing! Will tweet chip counts regularly (Gavin famously did not cash once at the 2008 WSOP.)

Allen Kessler

I will be at a mercedes drawing from 6pm-9pm have $150 in food comp to spend if anyone busts at WSOP 1B or Venetian

Justin Bonomo

719k at first break. That level felt like it was 5 hours long. Prolly just because I realy really really had to pee. (During the $40K)

Mike Matusow

Selling my book at the rio get your signed copy

Barry Greenstein

My girlfriend Alex is naming people who tweet better than I do. It would embarrassing if she left me for a better tweeter.

Allen Cunningham

New personal best for this year’s world series: lasted 4 hours (during the $1K)

Howard Lederer

Getting ready to go to bed soon. Big day tomorrow. My 24th WSOP (that’s right, I’m old). Can’t wait.

They say if you walk around your chair 7 times you get lucky. So I’m going to try that (during the $40K)
