Congratulations to John Racener for his first gold bracelet. I remember John Racener. He was one of the 2010 WSOP main event final tablists, who won a massive $5.5 million prize. He looks different now. His hair is shorter and he's got a beard. Does he have any kids?

I dont think that any of them are up for the bracelet, which always is mentioned in the articles. Its all about finishing first and getting the big money. Isnt it the same saying he has finished first 10 times, with, he has got 10 bracelets?

hey look mike the mouth is at the final table, cannot say that he won a miraculous amount of cash but it gives him a few buyins into bigger tourneys i guess, of course if he wasn't staked or this this wasn't the banks money in any form of loan...

Well, i did a quick search over the net, and this is what i found about it :
Dealer's choice is a style of poker where each player may deal a different variant. As the deal passes clockwise around the table, each player occupying the dealer position chooses a variant which is either played just for the current hand or for an entire orbit.

Mike Matusow is an old-school player with a lot of experience playing this wonderful game of poker ... he's probably in any condition and can play well and correctly .... the more you do something the more you have automatic actions and losses
