I ran across a great little article called How People Build Poker Bankrolls that I thought was really interesting. Bankroll management is the downfall of many players.

Who would not enjoy a strong rematch? Funny enough , the WSOP is convinced poker fanatics will love to watch former adversaries go at it once more. The World Series of Poker launched a series of rematches from previous Main Event showdowns. The WSOP has done a great job deciding on the matchups, Chris Moneymaker vs. Sammy Farha (2003), Johnny Chan vs. Phil Hellmuth (1989), and the final they are

Mike Matusow's prop bet with Ted Forrest ended with Matusow and Justin Smith having to pay Forrest $2 million. Back in May, Smith and Matusow bet Forrest that he couldn't lose 50 pounds by July 15.
