2008 WSOP /
National Championship Review
7
Players from all over the
state of North and South
Dakota

on June 27th to participate in the
"Destination
Las Vegas" National
Championship tournament.
The 25 person tournament was
at the Orleans Casino and up
for grabs was a $10,000 main
event WSOP seat.
Unfortunately the seven Dakota

short, but still had the next day to look
forward to. All 7 Dakota
players played in the WSOP
event #52 a $1,500 buy-in on
Monday June 30th.

Report From The Bay 101
Live blog & photos from the 2008 Bay 101
Tournament hopes and dreams of cashing in on the $1
million first place prize for the poker league crew
vanished at the end of day one of the main event. The
scene at the Bay 101 is a great experience, and
definitely the most fan-friendly stop on the World Poker
Tour that we have seen.
