Reviewing Tri “Slowhabit” Nguyen’s “How I Made My First Million from Poker”

Date: Thu, Dec 1, 2011

I just got done reading a pre-release copy of Tri “Slowhabit” Nguyen’s “How I Made My First Million from Poker.” It’s definitely not your typical poker book and if you’ve read some of Nguyen’s previous books on poker strategy this is an entirely new look at the game. In many ways it will remind you [...]

What is a Professional Poker Player?

Date: Tue, Nov 22, 2011

I’ve been doing a lot of light reading lately and nearly every poker magazine article is written by “a professional poker player.” Likewise, watching many of the televised poker events the commentators will often identify a player as a “professional poker player.” But just what the heck is a professional poker player? Is it someone [...]

Bomb Threat at Hawaiian Gardens

Date: Mon, Nov 21, 2011

I guess this is a follow up to my previous post on bad behaviour in California card rooms. So Sunday I was out and about running errands trying to get ready to fly out of here on hey to sneak in a little poker since I was near Hawaiian Gardens and I didn’t feel like [...]

The Changing Business Model in Poker Media

Date: Wed, Nov 16, 2011

Funny enough Hard Boiled Poker covered a topic I was pondering a blog post about. I’ve written in the past about the poker media and how the fact that they derived a large percentage of their revenue from the very poker sites that they were covering tainted their motivation to dig too deep or ask [...]

That’s What A Bad Beat Jackpot Looks Like

Date: Tue, Nov 15, 2011

It’s been quite a long time since I’ve been at a bad beat jackpot table so I needed this to remind me of what one looks like. Looks like the BBJ was $100K. Not bad. Related posts:Party Poker’s Biggest Bad Beat Jackpot in History The PartyPoker BBJP went north of $1 million this week... Phil [...]

Stingrays in Grand Cayman and Skydiving in Cali

Date: Mon, Nov 14, 2011

Some more non-poker related videos. Here’s a video shot in Grand Cayman of a stingray feeding dive we did. The funny part is that for all of the danger people think is involved with diving with sharks I actually received my worst animal related bite from a stingray. While trying to feed one of the [...]

Shark Diving

Date: Thu, Nov 10, 2011

Last night I did an interview for the Poker Affiliate Listings radio/podcast show and Jeremy mentioned my list of travels. Well, coincidentally I’ve been going through a bunch of old videos and such and ran across some stuff that I thought I would share for those of you who enjoy some of the non-poker content [...]

Oh Behave

Date: Tue, Nov 8, 2011

“You have to write something on your blog about live players.” A friend said that to me the other day and while I normally don’t do requests I thought it was a timely subject as many online players transition to live poker. In the course of maybe four sessions I’ve either seen or have had [...]

What Online Poker Can Learn From The Dotcoms

Date: Sun, Oct 30, 2011

The other night I was invited to get-together with some of my comrades from the old dotcom days. It was good to catch up and see people I haven’t seen since HTML programmers with no formal education in software engineering thought nothing about asking for (and getting) $75K+ starting salary and a BMW signing bonus.

Date: Thu, Feb 3, 2011

The second super satellite event of the Partouche Poker Tour is scheduled for February 24th through the 27th in Aix en Provence. Some of you may remember the cheating debacle from last year involving Ali Tekintamgac and alleged members of the poker media helping him cheat. This season has been clear of controversy so far [...]

The Online Poker Arms Race

Date: Sun, Jan 23, 2011

Before I get started I wanted to take a second and thank Michael Jones over at Part Time Poker for bringing together three seemingly unrelated topics which I had been stewing on for awhile. Him mentioning all three in the same article sort of forced me to sit down and put digital pen to digital [...]
