WSOP Champions
After talking to Amarillo Slim I decided to add his recollection of the 1972 hand which made him the WSOP Champion. (I do not know the suites of puggy pearsons cards)
His description of the hand goes like this " I had a K J, Puggy had a 6 6, the flop was 8-8-K, it was top pair, I bet all in , Puggy moved in, and my K-J was good "
