I frankly just like how GWB sounds, plus it gets double bonus points for confused out of towners who wonder why I am driving over the president.

I've never heard anyone say out WSOP. They usually just say the World Series of Poker, or shorten it to the World Series if it's already been established we're talking about poker.
