    I can see Annette cleaning up all her sections.

    A WSOPE Win and a 2nd in an EPT Event. Quality.

    I'm sure his win in the WPT championship $25000 entry a week later was ample consolation

    .......yeah....but not ''Of the 4 days over Easter!!!!!''

    I understand it is a huge event with lots of preparation but it is one event. One event a whole doesn't make.

    how do you know she was only nominated because of that one event?

    I just said she was one of the main people behind the set up of the IO, I dont know what else she done this year. Maybe she was behind the WSOPE too for all I know!!!

    It was also the biggest field in European history at the time.
