Unhappy In Loving Memory of John Bonetti
John Bonetti passed away on June 28th, RIP John. Everyone should follow the link below and read Phil Hellmuth's blog. It was very moving and brought a tear to my eye.

This is the one thing in the blog that I truly couldn't stand:

Quote:
Alas, the river was the 8s. Still, what a tournament for Bono at age 73! Think age matters? Ask 73 Doyle Brunson, who is leading the $50,000 buy in HORSE tournament right now (Saturday morning)! FYI - on Friday I finished about 33rd in the Stud eight or better for another cash, but no final table.
Paying tribute to a friend, and you feel the need to talk about your own results? Seriously, Phil...even when you try to pay your respects you are a massive egomaniac.

Phil usually posts his tournament results in this blog. So I imagine that this entry was both a tribute to bono and a post of his results. It was a bit out of place in that part of the blog though.

I have no problem with someone mentioning their personal results in a blog of theirs. With that said, there are times (such as now) where it isn't appropriate in any way.
