Professional players from sites like, www.vcpoker.com, at this years World Series have truly done themselves proud.
At the time of writing there is still the final 24 players of the main event to play for the years biggest prize, but all of the big names in the game have now completed their WSOP 2008. The last of these big names to fall was Mike Matusow in 30th place.
Having had a bet on him at vcpoker.com to make the final table this year at one hundred to one, I was as dismayed as anyone when his (A,J) on a flop of (A,A,x) somehow conspired to lose against a player holding (A,9) when a nine fell on the turn.
But Mike has already won a poker bracelet this year which is something which will surely make him feel better. He is not alone either, with many pros taking bracelets, other big names such as Daniel Negreanu, Barry Greenstein and Erick Lindgren also won events and in general the professionals have had a great year.
The reason this pleases me so much is that it contravenes the misinformed people who do not understand online poker and say that it’s a game of luck at www.vcpoker.com.
No one denies that luck plays it’s part, but skill is paramount if you are to win at the game consistently. With the professionals this year doing well and some all round great poker being played, I am already looking forward to next year even though the current year hasn’t even finished yet.
So a big well done to all competitors from vcpoker.com this year and especially so to the professionals, who really took the fight to the rest of the fields they played in, and good luck to all of them for the rest of their schedule this year.
