I have been avoiding any updates from Bay101 until now. I am delighted to see Vanna Tea has survived Day2. She now is in the final 27.No longer chip leader but “A million miles” from the tournies at the Bike.
Everyday locals Freddie Legaspi and Toothless Nguyen made it deep into the $50k guarantee. Freddie was [...]

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010Vanna Tea reluctantly left Signal Hill last week to relocate to N.California. Well she reluctantly left behind the WOTG at the Bike. Not sure if she even unpacked before heading off to Bay101 where she is Chip leader after Day1a.That alone is worth $10k.
Pretty shocked that the results are in for the 7pm WOTG tournie.618 [...]
