2006 Election Coverage

Don't Blame me, I Voted for the Nuts!

Poker Nut's News provides objective, and highly opinionated coverage of Online Poker. The following breaking news happens to be of the objective type. Poker Nuts News & Internet Texas Holdem do not endorse and are not affiliated with any political partys or politicians.

The morning after....Here's a snapshot of the outcome of the races for some of the sponsors and co-sponsors of HR 4411 (Unlawful Internet Gaming Enforcement Act)

Rep Goodlatte, Bob [VA-6] Won
Charlie Bass [R, NH-02] Lost
Sue W. Kelly [R, NY-19] LOst
Jim Leach [R, IA-02] Lost
Heather Wilson [R, NM-02] Even @ 6am EST 11/8/06
J.D. Hayworth [R, AZ-05] Lost
Robert Simmons [R, CT-02] Even @ 6am EST 11/8/06
Christopher Shays [R, CT-04] Won
Jon Kyle [R, AZ] Won
Mark Foley - Resigned

Note:
Although this information may be of interest to Online Poker Players, it the manner in which the bill was passed resulted in almost no public knowlege of the bill, and unless a representative was willing to vote against the "Port Security Bill", then they voted for HR 4411 as 'pork'. It is highly probably that HR 4411 played little or no role in the election results

 
 
Internet Player of the Year Race Featured by All in Magazine

PUBLISHED: NOV. 15, 2006

 

ITH is pleased to announce that ALL IN, the world's leading poker magazine, has begun to feature the 2006 ITH Internet Player of the Year (IPOY) race in its monthly publication. The IPOY debuted in last month's installment of ALL IN Magazine, and will continue to be featured for the foreseeable future. As a part of its coverage of the ITH IPOY, ALL IN Magazine is also providing updates of the IPOY Top 25 in each of its installments.

As previously mentioned, and despite the recent legislation regarding online poker, ITH still intends to crown the 2006 Internet Player of the Year at the conclusion of the calendar year. The criteria has been tweaked to ensure fairness for all players, domestic and abroad, and ITH anticipates an exciting conclusion to the 2006 IPOY race!

As anticipated, the InternetPokerRankings IPOY - powered by ITH - has enjoyed wild success in early returns. We at ITH look forward to the IPOY race picking up even more steam in the future, bolstered by premier online multi-table tournaments and the top Internet players in the world!

ITH's Hilger Final Tables Poker Stars $150

 

PUBLISHED: NOV. 2, 2006

 

On Wednesday, November 1, ITH received some good news to begin the month when website creator and poker professional Matthew Hilger reached the final table of the Poker Stars $150. Hilger, who eventually finished in fifth place last Wednesday, took home $5,560 in prize winnings. The Stars $150 remains a nightly piece of the ITH 2006 Internet Player of the Year criteria.
"I haven't played a nightly online tournament in quite some time so it was a lot of fun to do well," said Hilger, who competes under the username IonlyplayAA on Poker Stars. "I found the overall competition to be quite weak as most players were far too heavily focused on pre-flop action. Hopefully I'll be able to play a few more of these before year's end."

Prior to last Wednesday, Hilger had taken somewhat of a hiatus from online multi-table tournaments, focusing primarily on live play. During the summer, he won over 48K at the 2006 World Series of Poker after cashing in four events. Hilger is one of only 63 poker players in the world to have cashed in seven or more WSOP events since 2004. Two years ago, he set a personal WSOP best when we placed 33rd in the Main Event and won 80K for his efforts.

Congratulations to Matthew Hilger for representing ITH well last week, while also proving he is still a force to be reckoned with in the online poker scene!

IPOY Movers and Shakers (Oct. 31 to Nov. 6)

This past week began with a spark and ended with a bang in regards to the 2006 ITH Internet Player of the Year chase. Four esteemed players collected final tables from last Tuesday to Monday, Nov. 6, highlighted by two first-place finishes on Sunday and Monday nights.

First things first, a familiar player made his online presence felt last Wednesday night, as ITH creator Matthew Hilger finished fifth in the Poker Stars $150 on Nov. 1. Hilger, who primarily plays in live events nowadays, proved he still has what it takes to make a difference with his Internet play. For his efforts, Hilger raked in $5,560 last Wednesday, playing under the Stars username of "IonlyplayAA".

Update on the Quest for $1,000,000 - Bull Nags

Let's have an Update from everyone please! - Click here to update! -

What is "the Quest for $1 Million?

 - Here's the thread original thread...

2006 ITH Total: $166,721.30
Keep those numbers rolling!

I suppose I should also give Torch official credit for this idea - proving once again he is way too bright and creative for the USAF. Very Happy
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Two goals in this thread:
1. Get the total collected bonus for ITHers in 2006 to $1 Million.

2. Keep it simple for Bull. Surprised

Rules:

1. Only one post per member in this thread. When you have more chase data to add, edit you original post, and add it in

2. Only 2006 data please. If you started in December 2005 and finished in January 2006, it counts!

3. Just list accumulated bonus money by site. for example:
Absolute - $200
Party - $150
PokerRoom - $150
Total - $500
If you subsequently chase some more at Absolute, then edit the Absolute number and the total.

4. Only list bonus money collected. DO NOT INCLUDE POKER WINNINGS. I hope you had some, but this thread is for bonus money only.

5. Do not include rakeback, prop payments, or freeroll winnings

6. If you have a reasonable estimate on merchandise, you can include it.

 (i.e. if your bonus included an iPod Nano, you can include the value of that in your bonus total for that site. Ditto for loyalty program merchandise, that will count.)

Questions?
