Or perhaps the internet gives individuals a chance to make money off domain names.

The first ever PokerStars.net North American Poker Tour has begun, and an old familiar face is leading the way as Day 1 of the main event came to a close. Chris Moneymaker is responsible for starting the poker boom after winning the 2003 World Series of Poker main event, and now he is back on top after Day 1 of the Venetian main event. Close behind Moneymaker ready to make a strike is the likes of Carter Phillips, Daniel Negreanu, and the current WSOP main event champion Joe Cada. There is plenty of play left in the first ever NAPT Venetian main event, so only time will tell who will come out on top.

The Full Tilt Online Poker Series held two events on Thursday with a combination of a No-Limit Hold’em Cashout Tournament and a Stud Hi event.

The Stud Hi Limit tournament was Event #19 as ‘nadremark’ shipped the event for a solid $20,256 in cash money. Full Tilt pro Michael Craig fell just short of claiming the tournament, but ended up taking 4th place for $6,800.

Isildur1 was back on the high stakes cash tables, but this time the cards didn’t exactly go his way. Isildur1 dropped just over $950K as he battled top players in heads up play. He went up against Tom Dwan, Brian Townsend, and Justin Bonomo before dropping nearly $1 million. Isildur1 was playing a mixture of $100/$200, $200/$400 No Limit Hold’em and $200/$400 Pot-Limit Omaha, but lost to every player he played against. The losses on the day dropped Isildur1’s winnings for the year down to under $1 million. That is it for now, but rest a sure that an Isildur1 report is on the horizon.
