[The Buzz]

An interesting blog post by Steven Levitt, the author of Freakonomics and a blogger for the New York Times.

Apparently, there's a man in the running for the WSOP Ladies Event title.

Levitt's question at the end is the best part of the story ...

So here is my question. Which is more embarrassing, (a) the World Series of Poker running a ladies tournament and having a man win it, or (b) actually being the man who wins the event?

Levitt just posted this to his blog:

Addendum: Reliable sources have confirmed that the Hoa Nguyen playing in the ladies event is a woman, so it is indeed a case of mistaken identity.
