Epic Battle at Sun Poker!
Shark Vet Series at Sun Poker was taken down by long time Vet and avid Shark athletic supporter CEV2nd! Nice work Lee and a sweet $170 cashola score-arama. chachachachingy! Chingy was 6th!
Unknown chip tossin loon carlasw was hittin 2 outers and rammin and jammin for second and $102! Nice effort from the new girl (I think Carla?). Carlasw also launched my dumpy ass in 7th with a 2 outer on turn for a bigger set. I donked Titokhan earlier when he hit a str8 and my 9 outer came for the nut flush on riv. Sorry brudda (not).
freethinker was killin it as usual (3rd) and feared sandbagger Gilbee was 4th. Gilbert is tuff. Only 27 entries for a disappointing turnout. Lets go playas! This is a killer event. Sun apologized for the chip error (only 1500 starting chips).
This week its Uncle Tito! Titokhan hosts at Poker.com Shark Pool Party. HUGE add, NL hold'em, Britney Spears, Lindsey Lohan, (search engine help, pay no attention)64 funny cars and fire breathin, tire burnin' check raising action! Have no friends? Lets play poker Sunday night at 8PM EST. I'll be your friend. I never steal blinds and rarely bluff. I also am an honest car salesman.
Bring it, ladies.....

The Shark Is in Action at WSOP
Not Shark Hathaway, not Mark "the other" Shark Seif. It's Humberto!
from Cardplayer:
Humberto Brenes Is Having a Blast
Humberto Brenes is giving Spanish lessons this week.
“How do you say shark in Spanish?” he asked ESPN’s cameras the other day. And no, Mr. Scholar, who taught my ninth-grade Spanish class, it’s not “tiburon.”
According to Brenes, everybody should know that the English-to-Spanish translation of “shark” is “Humberto.”
During the tournament, the Poker Prince of Costa Rico has protected his cards with a novelty chip protector made to look like a shark that Seth Weinger, the owner and creator of a line of markers called Poker Faces, gave to Brenes at the Gaming Expo last week.
The shark has followed Brenes from table to table. He’s started calling it his friend. He even says the shark’s making decisions for him, despite the clear rule that calls for only one player to a hand. He has said the words “chomp, chomp, chomp” over and over again this past week while building his stack, smiling and laughing all the way.
Brenes, who has been playing tournament poker for many years now and has many cashes (he cashed in seven events at this year’s WSOP alone), has a real chance to make it to the final table again even though he sits below average with about $600,000 in chips.
And that would be phenomenal for Weinger, who debuted his product at this year’s WSOP. He created his line of chip markers, which feature 14 different characters that are supposed to represent different kinds of poker personalities, to fund buy-ins to major poker tournaments, he said. “It was just a stupid idea that I thought would be a fun thing to do,” he said.
He’s thrilled to have a high-profile player like Brenes enjoy his product so much, and expects the footage filmed will help his small business in a major way.
“He’s the perfect guy to have playing with it,” Weinger said.
Brenes just spent most of Sunday playing at the featured table, so people everywhere will be able to see the shark in action. They’ll also get to see Brenes play some poker.

I actually dislike people who bring their own card protector. If you don't have any chips to protect your cards, then find another profession. The only one that's worth anything, in my opinion, is the Casper lighter that Doyle Brunson has. It's more of a collector's item, not a card protector. Howard Lederer has rights to that one though.
I agree. Its like going golfin and using a special tee you brought from home.
I was at the Mirage one night and this guy had 10 stories about this fuckin coin he had that was so "special". Snooze fest. It even had its own lil pouch. Guy had a 8 dollar watch and 2000. card protector.
He left with only the coin.
