Lee Davy tries writing the weekly Calling the Clock column standing erect, but his back hurt so he sat back down. Erect. I like that word. Erect.
Life is not easy for the writer. I’m not talking about all that writer’s block bollocks, I’m talking about not being able to find interesting stories, or the slip of a finger that turns Calling the Clock into Calling the Cock.
Fortunately, this week, stories are not that hard to find. They may all originate from the same place, but that’s fine with me. I am, of course, talking about the World Series of Poker (WSOP), and this week the greatest tour in the world created three seven figure winners: Anthony Zinno, Jonathan Duhamel and Mike Gorodinsky.
Let’s begin with the 33-year old from Boston. Poker players come and go, like fallen leaves being blown around by the wind, but the wind doesn’t reach Zinno at this present moment. He is a star, and no wind can blow that far.
