Re: WSOP Hall of Fame nominee/inductees 2012?
Maybe no one meets the criteria this year?
* A gambler must have played poker against acknowledged top competition,
* Played for high stakes,
* Played consistently well, gained the respect of peers,
* And stood the test of time.
* Or, for non-players, contributed to the overall growth and success of the game of poker, with indelible positive and lasting results
* Be over 40

Doug Lee: 2+2 N°1 comic relief, he deserves some recognition for that

Nicely done, especially with Chainsaw's pic. Seamless.

Why do you americans have this odd fascination with "halls of fame"..?
What an amusingly meaningless exercise.

Some euro people I don't know that are probably ignored because the HOF is too US-centered

Obviously, you would never qualify. We call your comments "sour grapes".
