WSOP Random Observation #7: Friedman’s A Pizza Work
June 11, 2010 by admin
Filed under poker news
This year Perry Friedman is the man making the early running for “Crazy Hat of the Series,” today wearing what appears to be a pizza atop his head.
Friedman is well-known for sporting eye-catching looks, last year changing his hair several times during the course of the series.
This year he has pulled a succession of bizarre hats out of his closet.
“It’s easier than changing my haircut all the time!” Friedman was heard saying.
Friedman may feel he is on easy street to the “Crazy Hat of the Series” title right now, but once the Main Event rolls around, we’ll see a bunch more players challenging him with increasingly incredible sartorial choices.
Last year’s clear winner wore a full Indian headdress so Friedman shouldn’t count his chickens just yet as we will undoubtedly see some more insane looks before the series is done.

WSOP Momentum: Brock "tsoprano" Parker
May 27, 2010 by admin
Filed under poker news
Parker was no stranger to the WSOP in 2009 but it wasn’t until that year that he really made his mark.
With two bracelets, a total of six cashes and over $800,000 in earnings last year Parker will be looking to capitalize on that momentum in a big way this summer.
Transitioning from the game of Magic to online poker, Parker was a legend on the internet long before he had a WSOP bracelet on his wrist. When he found himself heads-up against Daniel Negreanu in the $2,500 Limit Hold’em event last summer he was favored my many against the seasoned live veteran.
He defeated Kid Poker and just three days later he was heads-up again in the $2,500 Six-Max No-Limit event against Joe Serock. He managed to close the deal once again and joined that exclusive group of people with two bracelets in the same year.
Check out the video interviews we shot with Brock last summer and keep an eye on our Live Coverage of the 2010 WSOP to see if he can build on his success from last year.

Mercier’s Top Ten Under 30 at the 2010 WSOP

Sorel Mizzi
Sorel Mizzi is on absolute fire right now. If you want to know what a heater looks like … just stare into this kid’s eyes.
He’s already won 4 live tournaments this year with numerous other final table appearances, and just took down a SCOOP event this month. Expect him to be going deep in many of the NL holdem and PLO events.
Yevgeney Timoshenko
In my opinion, this kid has to be considered one of the best NL holdem tournament players in the world. His results speak for themselves, he is insanely tough to play against and I know I wouldn’t want him at my table.
Scott Seiver
Another one who is just on fire right now… going deep in everything, crushing everything he sees. He’s been regularly working on his mixed game play the last few months. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him holding up a bracelet.
Daniel O’Brien
One of my best friends in poker, and the kid just has flat-out skills. He has a table presence that you just don’t see in most players with online roots.
He can play multiple games and will be playing a lot of events this year, and I know how hungry he is. Fuel the animal!
Daniel Alaei
Plays tons of mixed games events, solid, aggressive in all forms of poker, and he’s been playing poker since he was born… it’s in his blood.
Brent Hanks
Another one of my good friends in poker. He eats online kids for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I know how frustrated he was after last year’s WSOP with no results, and I know how badly he wants to win.
Christian Harder
One of the nicest kids I’ve ever met, and in my opinion, is in the top 5 for NL holdem tournament players.
I know the NL events are hard to win because of the big fields, but this kid is skilled enough and so in tune to the game and his opponents, I think we’re going to see him deep in a bunch of events.
Allen Bari
Misunderstood by his peers, loved by his friends, hated by his enemies … I don’t care what you think of him, Allen Bari is going to win a bracelet this summer. That is my flat out prediction. He’s going to be playing the $50k 8 game and tons of mixed game events.
I talk poker with him all the time and he knows his stuff.
Marco Johnson
Plays a lot of mixed game events, solid player all around. Wouldn’t be surprised if he shipped a 2-7 triple draw tourney.
Justin Bonomo
Crushes all forms of poker. He’s going to be playing a lot of events this year and he looks motivated. I don’t know what event he’s going to win, or final table, but I’m sure you’ll see him deep in something in the first week or 2 of the series.
