2009 California State Poker Championships at Commerce

By Pauly

Matt Savage is the premier tournament director in all of poker and right now he's down at Commerce running the 2009 California State Poker Championship. Matt has been utilizing Twitter to post his random thoughts, morning golf sessions, and important info about the California State Poker Championship. And I friggin' love the Chainsaw tweets. Pure comedy gold.

Seven events have come and gone and there are tournaments running over the next two weeks leading up to the grand finale... the $5,000 + $100 buy-in Championship event. That's the same one that Ben Affleck won a couple of years ago smack in the middle of the poker boom. Click here to read the structure sheet for the Main Event.

Since I'm holed up re-writing the third draft of Lost Vegas in the slums of Beverly Hills, I might take an afternoon off and head down to Commerce to check out the action.
