Throwback Thursday: The Incredible Lance Funston
You can only WISH your WSOP experience could be this soft.
When it comes to playing poker, revisiting history is rarely kind.
A little viewed thread on Two Plus Two sought out the WSOP amateur who bet based on chip color and what came back was the incredible Lance Funston.
Sure, you don’t normally have ten minutes in your day to do anything, much less watch an ancient World Series of Poker video* but being a poker fanatic, you are going to really enjoy some of the throwback gems in here.
The clip includes Men The Master, Gavin Smith, Scott Fischman — all the titans of 2005. Plus, when was the last time you saw a hand have 6 way action to the flop? This video has it all. Happy Thursday and enjoy!
