Default ok vince, i\'ll toot your horn, congrats.

from mike paul's website burgio doin well.....congrats sir- even though i hate you.


I had a list of ten names of players I recognized out of the 34 entrants. Nine of them failed to get their money back. The tenth name was lead Bad Boy, Paul Darden who won for the second time this tournament.


Plaza World Poker Classic

NO LIMIT HOLD’EM
$50,000 BUY-IN
MAY 16, 2005

11 PLAYERS
$550,000 PRIZE POOL


1ST PLACE – RANDY LEWIS $550,000

2ND PLACE – EARL VAN ALSTYNE

3RD PLACE – BOB BRIGHT

4TH PLACE – VINCE BURGIO

5TH PLACE – SIG SIGETY

6TH PLACE – JEFF FRERICHS

7TH PLACE – KELLY SCHWALBE

8TH PLACE – TAMMY BRIGHT

9TH PLACE – BOBBY BRIGHT

This was the mystery event of all time. The first regularly scheduled $50,000 entry drew eleven players when a TV contract was signed.

Then it was over in one day. So strange.

I'm going to try to interview as many people as I can to get you the story of what happened and why.


edit- well takin 4th, but not winning when this appeared to be winner take all....

meh....figured the folks here would like to know.

especially my buddy- mr. waking life paul phillips.
