Both 1st & 2nd place WSOP finishers qualified ONLINE!

Thats right, its happened again!!

Both Raymer and Williams qualified playing in satellite tournaments on the Internet, picking up where last year's champ Chris Moneymaker left off. Moneymaker, who won $2.5 million in 2003, lost on the event's first day.

Matt, do you post at RGP ?

Matt24 · May 29, 2004

no, what site is that?

Kiss1 · May 29, 2004

It's not a site. It's usenet,

rec.gambling.poker

It's where the "who's who" of poker hang out.

You can Google a sample
HERE

If you are interested in "anything poker" that's the spot.
