Wanted: World Series Of Poker
Bubble Boy
The last person knocked
out of the World
Series of Poker
main event before the money – traditionally know as
'bubble boy' – whistles an unhappy tune. It is a lament
of love and loathing - $10,000 invested, return on
investment zero.
It is a cruel blow
Mistress Poker mete's out on her suitor - after outlasting
almost 8,000 other players for her affections she discards
him into the unwelcoming, uncompromising Las Vegas
night.
But this year, Paddy Power
Poker reaches out with a sympathetic hand to 'bubble
boy.'
Hoa Mahn Nguyen from
Sunnyvale, California, is coming to the Irish Open 2007 -
Europe's largest and most historic no limit hold 'em
tournament. If Paddy Power Poker can find him.
The company is appealing
to the poker community to help track down the elusive Hoa
Mahn Nguyen.
Call us, call him, email
his brother, pass a note to his aunt, do whatever it takes
to get Hoa Mahn to Dublin over Easter weekend for the Irish
Open 2007. His package includes a ticket into the main
event, flights and accommodation.
This year's event, which
will be filmed for TV, is the biggest in Europe with a 2
million guaranteed prize pool and a capacity for 800 players
paying 3,300 (+200 reg) to play over Easter Weekend 2007
against the best players in the world.
What sets the Irish Open
apart from other poker tournaments is its historic legacy,
unique atmosphere, famous Irish hospitality, and legendary
reputation for camaraderie and 'craic.'
Last year, Dubliner
Vincent Melinn won the 350,000 first prize in only his
second ever live tournament and the final table was
broadcast live across Europe - a world's first.
