Will he have the Big Slick car?

Big Slick tires, maybe.

I like the idea of the WSOP logo on the hood. Can't wait to see that in the winner's circle.

Umm, it's Robby Gordon. I doubt you'll see that hood in the winners circle any time soon.

You are more likely to see it on Sportscenter with a caption mentioning probation or suspension for the driver. Of course Robby Gordon is a step up from Larry Foyt, Harrah's last foray into NASCAR.

From the article:

Gordon's past NASCAR highlights include victories at the Emerson Radio 250 Busch race in 2004 and three Cup victories in 2003 at Daytona International Speedway (Gatorade 125), Watkins Glen International Raceway and Infineon Raceway. In 2003, he became third driver in history to lead laps in both the Indianapolis 500 and the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

I'm not a big Robby Gordon fan, but don't underestimate his skill. If a owner/driver makes it back to victory lane in Nextel Cup, it'll most likely be RG
