The World Series of Poker is in the can for another year. Sending the WSOP on its way, poker players have been celebrating its crazy final table rails, going all misty-eyed for the past two months…and handing out showers. It’s to get under the water and wash that Rio grime away.
Some love them, some don’t. This poker fan is clearly a supporter of the raucous rails that punctuated the Main Event coverage.
Not a huge poker guy. But I’m a little hooked by all the zaniness. Poker should be a little off the rails. Wanna get nuts, let’s get nuts!! https://t.co/USdgQlBAYd

David Williams misses the days when players would have heaps of chips to push into the middle. Maybe he’s just going all sentimental about his runner-up finish.
Popular opinion: I miss the days when they didn't color up and the guys had castles and were betting two hands stacks. #WSOP50

Layne Flack is all for self-improvement, and it’s to his credit. If everyone had his attitude, the WSOP might be unbeatable!
The more i watch poker on TV and online. I become more and more aware of how different the game is and how much there is for me to still learn. Does not pay to be stubborn in my ways or no limit poker will pass right passed me. If it hasn’t already. #humbled

Showers for one, showers for all, showers for the fold, showers for the call. It’s time to get under the damn tap one more time, poker players. Turn it up hot!
