UB.com is pulling out all the stops with their Online Poker Championship Series, offering a rock star NLH $200K event (see website here for details).
Hundreds of online poker players turned up to UB’s $200+15 buy-in Bounty event for a shot at parking themselves next to rocker royalty, as Team UB’s Scott Ian, and a few of his rock star buddies held court in UB’s poker room.
Ian is a long time player with UB.com.
JERRY CANTRELL(Alice in Chains), KIRK HAMMETT(Metallica), CHAD GRAY and GREG TRIBBETT(Mudvayne), ANDY HURLEY(Fall Out Boy), and SULLY ERNA(Godsmack) showed their best hands in last night’s $200K GTD, but failed to make the money.
Instead, six other online poker players picked up the bounty.
Players who picked up the Rock Star Bounty are:
• STACKOLOGIST XSAVAGISTX (Andy Hurley)
• TIETYMM HELVIS8 (Chad Gray)
• MAUIFISH SULLYERNAXXX(Sully Erna)
• BJ4TJ JERRYCANTRELL(Jerry Cantrell)
• RAFAELMADERA TRIBBS68(Greg Tribbett)
• I SPEW CHIPS KIRKHAMM666(Kirk Hammett)
IAN(406th), tournament co-host SHANNA MOAKLER(621st)and a number of Team UB Pros also came out to support the event, including ANNIE DUKE (665th), HOLLYWOOD DAVE (686th), MATT GRAHAM(230th)TIFFANY MICHELLE(212th), DEBO34(364th) and PHIL HELLMUTH, who ran deep in the tournament to finish in 78th place - just shy of the 72 places paying.
