Clash of Poker Dynasties in Special WPT Event

The Foxwoods Casino Resort in Connecticut saw a unique poker tournament take place on November 15 in which the game�s most prominent personalities and players competed for family pride and a $25,000 seat in the WPT World Championship.

�The structure is both interesting and fun,� said poker pro Barry Shulman � who played with son Jeff � of the 'tag-team' father-son game.

�Each team decides which player starts and there is a mandatory switch at every level and every time a team busts out,� said Shulman. Additionally, one time during the tournament a team can change players.�

In a personal blog, Shulman said he and his son finished third, losing to the Greensteins and Brunsons. �Any team could have come in first through sixth, though, because it was a very fast structure and didn't take much time at all for �fold� or �all in� to become the only two options,� he said. �I'm not complaining, but we held no cards and got no breaks.�
