The 2006 World Poker Challenge
The 2006 World Poker Challenge was set, and 28 players were going to get paid out of the 251 players who had put up $5,000, spreading the $1,217,350 prize pool among the just over ten percent for this no limit tournament. The final table was filled with pros and newcomers: Mike Thurman, Joe Tehan, Steve Sung, Erik Cajelais, Tex Barch, Shannon Shorr, Francois Safieddine, Erik Seidel, Zachary Cherry and Justin Bonomo. In the end, it was Erik Cajelais who won the bracelet and $405,230 as well as a $25,000 seat in the World Poker Tour Championship.

Poker slang:
- TRIP - Three of a specific kind, as in "Trip sixes".
- OFFSUIT - Not of the same suit. "I held A-Q offsuit" or "The flop was 10-6-2 offsuit". When speaking of 5 or more cards, not all/ of the same suit, i.e., no flush, as in "button had A-K-10-8-7 offsuit."
- GOOD GAME - A game with players worse than you so that you can expect to win a lot of money.
- DEALER'S CHOICE - In home games, a rule that permits the dealer to name which poker game to be played that hand. Often limited to selecting from a list provided.
- RUNNER-RUNNER - A hand made using both of the last two cards dealt.
- BUNNY - An eight. So named because one can easily draw "rabbit ears" above the numeral 8, "paws" in the middle and "feet" at the bottom. (Do this only at home, and not on cards that will be used for play.)
