Ken “Teach” Aldridge

The Omaha 8/Stud 8 players in the area are not messing around this afternoon. They are rolling in the Event Center in big numbers with 71 entries before the first break. That’s a great turnout for a non-hold’em game and they are building a very nice field.

Among the gang, we found Ken “Teach” Aldridge coming off a nice run. The popular player went deep in the WPT Poker Showdown Championship in Hollywood, made the televised final table, and finished sixth for $261,700 after a couple of tough, televised beats. Aldridge is sporting some shiny jewelry today, the WSOP Six-Handed bracelet he won in 2009.
