Tidal Wave of Poker News!!!

COWABUNGA, SURFS UP!!!   it's a Tidal Wave of poker news coming straight at ya!

Ok Poker Surfers and Surfettes I know we've been gone way to looooong but we're back with some cool ass poker news for you! Here we go! (not like the bud light commercial, more like Tag-Teams "Whoop der it is!")

  • UB.com's UBOC series has been off the charts with major events, but most recently we saw a 3-way chop in the $162 buy-in No Limit Hold'em Deep Stack Sniper event, then a secret 4 way chop in the $2,100 buy in  Super High Roller Event that saw a very cool 387 players with a prize pool of $774,000! 1st place JARFISH scooped a nice $124,000 WOW!
  • GSN's High Stakes Poker is back for season number 7, but not without some sort of controversy.  PokerStars had swung in awhile back and bought up the sponsorship rights to the show, right out from under former sponsor Full Tilt Poker. So the question in the air is "will FT pro's be playing on the show" b/c if not we'll miss some of the games biggest names like Tom Dwan, Phil Ivey, and Patrik Antonius. Not to mention Howard Lederer and EDOG! Erik Lindgren.  We do know that Doyle Brunson, Barry Greenstein and Danile Negraneu, negranu, neg ...how do you spell is freaking name, even google's confused..uh grown man Kid Poker will be returning to the show which will air on it's new night Saturday at 8pm Feb.26.  and for the record it was filmed in the Bellagio.
  • Aussie Millions is underway and at the Aussie Millions Cash Game Patrik Antonius has been killing it! Patrik also had a killer weekend at the Full Tilt Poker tables raking in around $447,000
  • Grown man Kid Poker has said that he's trying to get passed the 50,000 VPP (points) he earned last year on Poker Stars and go for Poker Stars SUPER NOVA or also know as reaching 100,000 points. Read more here Grown Man Kid Poker
  • And Team Cowabunga Poker is still in it at the Global Poker League.
  Go Get 'em Poker Surfers and Surfettes!!! COWABUNGA!!!
