They can now add

"She plays exceptionally bad and annoying poker."

Surely I can't be the only one who thinks that it's completely impossible to play bad poker and still be one of 27 remaining players in the WSOP ME?

Yes, she has been very lucky, and no, her poker isn't world class, but it's not "bad" with any reasonable definition of bad.

It is obviously very difficult to argue with "annoying"... [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

2:49 PM "El Diablo" busts Williamson
In an unorthodox move, a masked player has just entered the tournament at this late stage, surging into a top-ten position. Apparently, last night after play was completed, the masked Diablo offered Ms. Williamson a prop bet...backed by several notable posters from the internet poker forum 2+2, Diablo put up cash equivalent to her stack size and offered to play her heads up for her position in the tournament. She hemmed and hawwed and thought for a while, then for a while more, and then finally agreed. At about 3 this morning, the first hand of their match was dealt. Diablo took a look at his first card and immediately moved all-in, recognizing the need to play quickly if the match was to end before today's 3:00 resumption of play. Even that quick move was looking like it might not be enough, until a few minutes ago, Williamson finally called. Diablo's pocket deuces held up over her AJo.

A few players objected to Diablo's late introduction to the tournament, but the tournament director simply replied "He has chips."

Going all in for 1.1 Million chips with AQ when someone has raised to 36k (with KK) is bad poker, no matter how narrow your definition of bad poker is.

the worst thing about the internet is it gave an outlet for all the dorks in their parents' basement to spout what passes for humor in their lonely little minds.
