Grammy Shmamby, Steve Albini just won a World Series of Poker Bracelet

Post by drumsound » Sun Jun 17, 2018 12:31 am

For those of you who don't know, Steve Albini is quite a poker player. He hosts a game at Electrical, and plays in casinos often. He makes his way out to the World Series of Poker every year, and has spent some time comentating in the streaming booth in the past. Tonight he was at the final table of event #31 $1500 7-Card Stud event. He closed it out and won a very nice sum.

Most people who know poker probably think of No Limit Texas Hold 'Em, but Steve, being Steve, prefers the classic old school game of 7-Card Stud, the 16-track 2" of poker.
