When poker was super hot - like the weather in L.A. this weekend - players couldn't get enough of it. It wasn't enough to watch the plethora of poker TV shows and listen to podcasts; poker fans wanted to see the real deal. And Live at the Bike gave it to them with live webcasts [...]

I'm really looking forward to the day when I can get back to my old self. Porn, booze and poker are the breakfast of champions while I'm stuck with the Swimsuit Edition, tap water and tiddly winks. That changes a little this weekend when some lovely ladies come winging their way into town. We will show them a good time in town and fill the vegetarian full of god's tasty critters . Unfortunately I was...

Well as far as business I have been sick off and on for the last few weeks so have not been doing much prospecting at all. I have had the flu and been pretty much bed ridden for a few weeks. I have been able to do business thanks to referrals. I am going to suffer from not being able to prospect so I just sent out 20 flyers to businesses to call next week to see about going in to do my presentations...

One year ago today, Kate delivered twins. My girls are 1. We were cleaning and blowing up balloons and getting gift bags together for all the minnows who will be tromping through our house. Today we'll be picking up cake and ice cream and thawing and throwing chicken on the grill. "All this work," Mom said, "and they won't even know it's for them." This party is not for the girls. It's for us. We...

Curtain Time for Barack Obama, Part IV, was posted yesterday . This part details the pervasive corruption in Chicago politics, the first convictions, and how those involved just happen to be donating to Senator Obama--what a surprise! Part V will be posted next week. Speaking of curtain time, we all may want to pay some attention to Chaitén, the volcano in southern Chile that is continuing to erupt....

TUNICA, Miss. -- There have been a couple of noteworthy things playing poker here. One is that people have no concept of pot odds and whether a call is warranted. In one case, at a NL$1/2 game at the Gold Strike, this one guy makes it $26 to go pf, leaving him $32. The guy to my left thinks about it for a while and finally reluctantly folds. After another guy calls with AK and then the folder sees...

Life on Tilt: Confessions of a Poker Dad is John Blower's debut novel and while this post isn't meant as a review - I don't have the book to hand - here are just a few reasons why I may not be rushing out to buy it: 1. Hero's name - Johnnoe Zandoken . Please: this isn't a poker player's name. It's the name of a man who works in a circus, in 48-inch shoes and a red nose 2. Kenna James ' foreword - "...

The word on the street, or at least the word on popular poker blogs like Pokerati and Wicked Chops, is that High Stakes Poker (HSP)—a favorite of many poker aficionados (and yes, that includes me)—will fold what thus far has been a winning hand. Pokerati quoted HSP co-host A.J. Benza this way: "Far as Gabe and I know ... the show isn't coming back. The network is going to go in a different direction...

I did some standup (what people usually call "striking", after a long time away from it and focusing on BJJ (what people usually call "grappling"). I was expecting to be pretty terrible, and I was. My timing and reaction time is just way off. I'd get hit with jabs and push kicks over and over and be too slow to counter or even block. I just got beat up, but it was good. No one went beat me up too badly,...
