The Shark Tank

I decided to relax and get a massage this morning and sent Suited to
the 1/2 NL table at the Hilton. She won a little bit and I’m very
relaxed. Were goofing off and doing tourist stuff.
I’ll probably play a little after dinner tonight. Elmo and Chrisjp

I took up Full Contact Poker’s offer to give me a microscopic share of Daniel’s winnings if I wear their hat and I’m meeting them today to collect a bunch of gear.
I arrived just in time to miss Matthew busting out of the $1,500 PL event.  I did get to watch him collect a big [...]

I leave for the land of sin and sun in about five days now.  I’m starting to get amped up about it.  I will try to post live updates here as best I can.  The WordPress post-by-mail interface is not very good, so I don’t know how patient I will be to do so but [...]

I officially launched the ITH People’s Champion Fund a little less than a week ago and we have raised almost $7,000 so far.  Of course, the strongest supporters joined up quickly and there will be some people who sit on the fence and sign up right at the last minute, but I think we probably [...]

I was doing well enough for a while, but two big hands did me in.  In the first hand, I flopped two pair and wound up making a crying call on the river to see the flush that I knew he had.  That cost me a good-sized chunk of my stack because on the first [...]

I’ve come up with what I think is an excellent idea to send an ITHer to the WSOP ME.  We are going to organize a ITH only tourney where participants put in $200 to compete in a MTT to send someone to the main.  My innovation is that the losers will all retain 40% (or [...]

I’m so angry about this I can’t hardly focus. In my mind, this is the next PokerSpot. There are just too many rooms and we know nothing of their long-term viability and financial health and there is no way to sue them.
I’ve now seen three different posts on different forums with this same [...]
