Seems like anything that people wish against on Two Plus Two, the opposite happens in real life. Remember Phil Hellmuth was washed up last year? Then runs like god and plays perfect in WSOP. Remember Negraneu hated Anne and called her C word and she gets on Reality Show and gets own poker league. Remember people saying they better get their money from FTP and nothing happens. Remember Sorrel Mizzi and his scandals? Now there were multiple threads for weeks on Chino and he wins Epic Poker Tour. If you want you life to improve, just have someone start a thread against you!

Yeah. Have had a couple of beers so perhaps I will disagree with what I am about to post tomorrow morning, but it just seems like poker has crashed and burned as anything approaching a mainstream activity in the last couple of months.
Edit - it seems like the vast majority of big names involved (not all of them obviously) have been proven to be ****ing thieves.

Billed as a series of tournaments created for the very top professionals, who better to have represent the Epic Poker League as its inaugural champion than Chino Rheem? He is everything that true professional poker should be about: class, etiquette, sophistication, style, and respect for and by his fellow professionals.
The character committee that the league has introduced is a great thing to have as part of such an "elite" tournament series as well. And who better to form a character committee than Annie Duke, who is beyond famous for her pleasant demeanor and constant charm? Every time that I have the pleasure of seeing Annie Duke she sure looks like she is always enjoying herself at the table while showing immense respect to her fellow players, so the casual fan should be incredibly enthusiastic about having her on the mic as league commissioner. Her entire family is very prudent in looking after poker players' best interests for that matter.
Congrats to the Epic Poker League, the Duke (Lederer) family, and its inaugural champion Chino Rheem. Poker is truly soaring to new heights this decade!
