After some poker fun, here’s some more. In his latest CardPlayer blog post, Phil Hellmuth, besides many interesting stuff, talks about his meeting with Bill Clinton this August. As it turns out, Phil was invited to Bill Clinton’s Charity event in Lexington, Kentucky:
"We would spend part of the day at the Lexington Hearing Center with Bill Clinton (and) then head off to Clinton’s charity event…"
"My wife and I were honored to sit right next to Bill (at) the Gala dinner!"
The always nice UB sponsored pro also showed a beer can with his face on it to the ex-president after his speech. Nice touch, Phil! Here’s a picture of the great event:
The thing is interesting because in the US, presidential candidates, present presidents and former ones usually don’t associate with anyone. Let alone with people who make their living as a gambling professional. But it was always obvious that Bill ‘Slick Willie’ Clinton stood out from the crowd of the US Presidents.
