$2500 BC Poker Championships -- Main Event I busted out late in Day 1 of the BCPC. As in the 1k, I felt I had a fantastic table draw. I got to see tons of flops for really cheap, and a lot of people made poor post-flop decisions. We had one guy flat-call with the nuts closing action. I could go on. Maybe I'm being hard on people since this was a main event and thus a lot of people probably satellited...
That's Mish's headline today , not mine. As Mish (and others) noted, a hacker (or an insider) broke into the University of East Anglia's Climatic Research Unit and downloaded 156 MB of data. These include lots of damaging emails. (News reports: New York Times , Boston Herald . UK Telegraph , etc. As reported in Watts Up With That , here's one particularly devastating email: From: Phil Jones To: ray...
I have talked about these guys in the past, in their own songs they combine reggae, rap and hip hop to provide a great sound. Here they have reggae'd up Viva La Vida, and frankly I like this version than the original. Check it out for yourself and let me know what you think.
Gentlemen, here’s an new, hilarious version of Bing Blang Blaow. Enjoy!Lyrics: Sit down, pour a drink, I’ve a story to tell ‘Bout a villain who plays Heads-Up 50 NL. I’d been crushing the game, Had a big winning session. Zigging and zagging With guile and aggression. Just fifteen more minutes ‘Fore hitting the sack, When a new guy sat in, With a full fifty stack. We traded...
Busy relaxing weekend? Wrote posts for Poker From the Rail and MNPokerMag today and yesterday. Will be covering the Sunday Warm-up at PokerStarsblog tomorrow. But much like the Oreo, the best stuff is in the middle. Guys night complete with some much needed live poker before the big WPBT trip (you are going right? right') in 19 days. And tomorrow afternoon will be reserved for Favre-gasm and recovery...
Interesting to read the comments of new German finance minister Wolfgang Schäuble and to compare them with the statement earlier in the week by Ben Bernanke. While the latter had said that it was very hard to say what the fundamental price of an asset should be and therefore it was difficult to say that it was overvalued (this, btw, was a sentence before he said that assets were not currently...
2+2 has a thread about the 5 poker pros that tilt you the most. I found the following posts humorous even though they do not necessarily reflect my own views. Annie Duke - loves her own voice, doesnt let others have their say, is a complete tool imo. She's also a UB c*cksucker. Pokerlistings says shes "articulate and attractive" wrong on both accounts. Phil Laak - can't stand the bloke, I...
During the Presidential election campaign, President Obama promised no new taxes on the middle class. He defined that as people earning less than $250,000. Americans for Tax Reform has their list of the tax provisions in the Senate Health Care Bill. Many of these tax provisions would impact the middle class: - Individual Mandate Tax; - Excise Tax on Comprehensive Health Insurance (would likely tax...
I gotta say, @Phil_Hellmuth really is turning into one of the best poker reporters out there … I read his blog, follow his tweets and generally occasionally love his vids; you can tell he is actively working on his 21st-century media game. Most recently, at his own TASER Foundation charity tourney in Phoenix — the biggest [...]
Hmm, you know, it’s what been perplexing me, too … how some of the people who are pushing hardest for “our issue” are the people who stand to lose the most (in the short-term at least) should the Barney Frank or Robert Menendez bill(s) pass. The only explanation I can come up with is religious [...]
Funny … just about everyone in poker is trying to branch out of it, including Phil Galfond, who is trying his hand at artsy film movie noir: via PokerListings. Thanks Gary Wise for the tip/man-lover cheerleading. Related Posts Shark out of Water? (3) Lady Gaga to Play APT Macau? (0) Benecio del Toro, 50 Cent to Appear in Poker Movie? [...]
Woke up early this morning and made fairgirl some toast to go. No jam, just butter. I'll never get that. There are only a few small remaining Mason jars of homemade jellies and jam straight off the farm sitting on our dwindling pantry shelf. Fresh stuff, not store bought fruits. And fairgirl opts for toast sans jam? An extra dollop goes on mine. The aroma of fresh ground coffee beans fill the
Week 11 is the hardest week of games to pick thus far in the NFL season. Period. I may have said that one or two other times that I recall here this season, but that's because it was true. At the time, some of those weeks were the hardest of the season to that point. Well this week sets a new bar. Week 11 is chock full of games between one decent team and one bad team, in one or the other's stadium,...

You’ve never been to a poker tournament like a World Tavern Poker Open. This isn’t your uneventful, lackluster tournament with a sea of serious poker faces, a drone of chip stacks shuffling and the occasional outburst from a painful suck out. This is a real smack talkin’, beer drinkin’, brag worthy, can’t be out done, spirited Vegas poker tournament. Prepare for the wildest 4 days of your life. Returning
WSOP 2009: The 2009 World Series of Poker Schedule Hot off the presses, the World Series of Poker has just announced it’s full lineup for 2009 tournaments.
