The Final Nine


It has gone down to the last nine players in the Main Event of this year's World Series of Poker.


The names are unfamiliar to me. They are - Philip Hilm, Tuan Lam, John Kalmar, Raymond Rahme, Lee Watkinson, Lee Childs, Hevad Khan, Jerry Yang and Alex Kravchenko.


It sounds like a full male list.


I had placed a bet late last year that the winner of the 2007 Main Event would be a female. The tournament has never been won by a woman and I think that sooner or later the event will be won by a person from the opposite sex.


There are a lot of great female players out there - I just cannot understand why they have yet to get to the WSOP bracelet in the main event.


Maybe next year.
