WSOP – Fame vs Fortune

Posted on 30 June 2009 by Samantha

So what do you go for, when choosing an event to enter at the 2009 WSOP?  Big prize money, even if you don’t finish as the winner vs Fame of winning a bracelet.

It probably depends on who you are and how big your bankroll is.  Everyone wants to win a bracelet at the WSOP, but if you already have a few chips in your back pocket and your mortgage is paid off, then you would probably go for the fame and not the fortune.

Some may say, well I’ll go for the fame, because the fortune will follow… hmmm but I would disagree on this point.  Just because you are famous it doesn’t guarantee that you will make lots of money.  So, I would probably go for the money first… fame is not that important to me…

Then I would go for an event with the type of poker that I am best at, so that I would be confident of my ability and of winning.

But heh… thats me, different strokes for different folks.

What would you go for?
