Add Three More Names to the Team PokerRoom Roster - By Seth Shafer

Sep 3, 2008 Saturday saw another edition of the Double Trouble get underway, which would award three players with tickets to major live poker events. The winner of the Double Trouble would be off to Niagara Falls with a $15,500 trip package in hand for the 2008 WPT North American Poker Championship, while 2nd and 3rd place finishers would claim a $7,000 package each to the PokerNews Cup in Melbourne, Australia.

As always there were plenty of familiar names in the field from past live events, including Wieringen, nammer4life, J Carlisle, KristapsK3, dj_stiff, Pokahovec, whassup x, and AKplus.

In the end, though, it'd be all fresh faces for the final four, with J Carlisle the last of the veterans to fall in 6th place. big wilson (who attended the 2008 WSOP to root UpChitCreek on), BingoBillen, .hades., and sexyNatascha were the last four players left standing, and BingoBillen proved to be the unfortunate bubble boy, bowing out in 4th place.

With a trip package of some sort locked up for the final three, all that was left was to determine who'd be heading for Canada and who for Australia. Here were the final three finishers, with the packages they won:

1st: .hades. ($15,500 WPT Canada package)
2nd: big wilson ($7,000 PokerNews Cup package)
3rd: sexyNatascha ($7,000 PokerNews Cup package)0
