Boxer Out on Day One of WSOP

Heavyweight boxing champion Lennox Lewis was spotted at the tables of the $10,000 buy-in World Series of Poker. Reports are that the former champ had fun but he failed to make it past day one of the WSOP main event.

This years WSOP has drawn almost 9,000 players and Lewis was considered a long shot to win it all. "In boxing you know what cards are going to be dealt, in this you don't" - Lennox Lewis, describing the difference between poker and pugilism.

Texan Doyle Brunson, known as the "Texas Dolly" and the author of several poker books said "If you have been sent to the rail as Lennox Lewis was, you still have the opportunity to play poker at sites like DoylesPokerRoom.com."
