Can’t make it to the 2007 WSOP? That’s okay. You can still read all about it…
The next best thing to being at the World Series of Poker is reading about it through all of the entertaining poker blogs that have exploded all over the net. There are so many poker or poker-related blogs out there right now that PokerStars can offer a yearly tournament for poker blog purveyors and end up with thousands of entrants.
One of the most famous blogs out there is the Party Poker blog. When you’re one of the most well-known and popular poker sites in the world, it’s probably not that hard to get your blog noticed. Most of the time the Party Poker blog has some interesting stories and tidbits from the insane world of online poker, but it’s not a great destination for WSOP news and opinion. Right now, by looking at the blog you wouldn’t even know the WSOP was going on because they aren’t even talking about it. If you’re looking for some fun poker info check out the Party Poker Blog, but if you’re looking for WSOP info give it a pass.
The best WSOP info from the Rio I’ve found recently comes from pokerblog.com. What an original web address, huh? If you want to know the goings-on at the WSOP down to the most minute detail, this is the best blog on the web. Even if you’re in Vegas and you’re looking for event starting times, I’d go here before I would go to the extremely inane official WSOP website.
The boys and girls at pokerblog.com know their stuff and they know how to deliver it in an interesting manner that won’t have you clicking somewhere else before you get halfway down the page.
Another good one? Bodog Beat. They’ve got a couple of guys at the WSOP covering all the events so their reporting is first-hand and first-rate.
