CASINO CITY REPORTER A STEP NEARER WSOP MAIN EVENT
22 June 2007
Sixty Cent Main Event project moves to fourth
trade exchange
Readers may recall our story last month about Casino
City reporter Aaron Todd and his project to "trade up"
in a series of barters starting with a 60 cent online
poker check in order to gain a $10 000 World Series of
Poker Main Event seat before applications close for the
July competition.
This week Todd reported the successful completion of his
fourth trade exchange which leaves him in possession of
a limited edition Super Bowl XXXVI football signed by
Adam Vinatieri. Todd earlier traded his 60 cent PKR
Poker cheque for a stack of Golden Palace souvenir
chips, coverting those into fragments of the childhood
home of reggae singer Jimi Hendrix.
In his latest report, Todd reveals that Josh DiPietro, a
sales manager for Herb Chambers Dodge in Danvers, Mass.,
wanted the pieces of the house as a gift to his unborn
son. His father was a big Jimi Hendrix fan, but
unfortunately, he never got to meet his grandchildren
(Josh also has an 18-month old daughter). He died in a
boating accident five years ago.
"I just thought it would be something he'd love to
have," Josh said. "Thinking of some of his songs brings
me back to some of the good days and good memories."
The man who signed the football, Adam Vinatieri, made a
number of memorable field goals for the New England
Patriots, and kicked the game-winning field goal Super
Bowl XXXVI as time expired.
In pursuit of his World Series of Poker Main Event goal
(the competition starts on July 6) Todd launched a
special and entertaining website at
www.sixtycentmainevent.com, detailing his moves to
date.
