The $100/200 No Limit Hold’em action on the site has been drawing quite some attention this week, Kelopuro being challenged by the likes of ‘dropdeed’ from the hand above and ‘nevitup88’ among others – the ‘Rabbit Hunt’ option on the site causing the latter to rue a ‘missed chance’…

Vegas may well be the focus of attention this month, but it’s not the only game in town!
