  • The EPT always has open arms for celebrities from any background. The press like them because it gives us a different sort of character to write about. The players like them because, more often than not, they're good value. The celebrities we like the most are sports stars, as they offer a real competitive edge. Royston Drenthe, the Everton and dutch international footballer, is playing today. We'll try to bring you some interesting from him. All we've got so far is him folding to a 5,000 river bet from a certain Mike McDonlad.
  • Andrey Pateychuk is a beast of a player who has everyone raving about him after they've played with him. The EPT San Remo champion bet 2,300 on a {6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades} board and was tank-called by Fady Kamar who mucked upon seeing the Russian's {a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}.
  • We're doing out best to find a Phil Ivey hand for all his fan boys, but unusually he's smiling and laughing when we're around. We need the stare and him mixing it up back soon, please.
