Daily WSOP report: June 18th
The WSOP gets older, weirder, and better
Today at the WSOP, aging is not a crisis...it is a tournament category with a registration line. I'm getting older, which means the original online-poker dream is now eligible for the Seniors event, and an entire generation of once-young degenerates is right behind me with reading glasses. Meanwhile, Shane Littlefield has become this summer’s big winner by specializing in losing, turning Razz and bad hands into a very strange career highlight. Add in our behind-the-scenes gallery, and you’ve got poker’s full ecosystem: the aging dreamers, the math weirdos, and the machine keeping the circus happening every summer.
