Thank you, one and all, but...I'm not him either.
I admit it. When I was glued to the online reports of who was doing what during the WSOP this year, especially during the final grind towards the final table of the main event, I was completely convinced that the actress/comedian from "Grace Under Fire" was actually going to make it to the final table. Boy, was *I* confused. Turns out that Rhett Butler isn't Brett Butler (dang it, Brett is still a guy's name- can you blame me for my confusion?), but rather is a 44-year-old insurance agent from Rockville, Maryland- and was a serious contender for the $12 million top prize instead claimed by Jamie Gold.
So, why the trip down memory lane, especially one that makes me look more than a little like a doofus? Because I just got the word that TourneyBlog is going to get the chance to interview Rhett! Keep your browser tuned in for interviews with Butler as well as UK poker star Roland De Wolfe and The Maverick, Marek Kolk, the recent winner of the 888.com UK Poker Open!
It's like interview Christmas around here.
