KrazyKanuck makes the New York Times
At Poker's World Series, 838 Jokers, One King
....The biggest change this year was the influx of players who qualified through Web sites like PokerStars.com, which spent $160,000 on T-shirts, hats, plane tickets and hotel rooms for its players, nine of whom finished in the top 100 on Day 1. The lavish steak and seafood dinner the Web site sponsored Sunday night for its team was like a reunion of relatives who had never met, as people searched out the strangers behind the screen names when their aces lost to some lousy hand transformed by the last card turned. "Where's the Krazy Kanuck?" asked Bruce Van Horn, a pathologist from Ada, Okla., who placed second in the 1996 tournament and has been chasing ever since. Jim Worth, who lives outside Toronto and just sold his coffee company to make a run as a poker pro, went over to shake hands. "There's nobody on the site that I fear more on my left than you," Mr. Worth told Dr. Van Horn, paying him Hold'em's highest compliment. "I've had to change my play every time you sit down." |

Re: KrazyKanuck makes the New York Times
I always pictured Krazy Kanuck as a pathological cab driver, who was addicted to adrenaline, go figure..........
