There’s been lots of buzz in the Vegas poker world about billionaire Andy Beal coming back to take another shot at The Corporation. Word on the street is that Andy got up a $2 million before Ted Forrest turned Andy’s win into a $3 million loss. Lou Krieger has some interesting insights into Andy, his desire to keep playing, and how long he’ll stay away from poker before taking another stab.

Hi, my name is Bill Rini and this is my poker blog. I've been blogging about poker and the poker industry since around 2003-ish. Like most people I started out playing poker as entertainment in home games whenever we wanted to sit around and smoke cigars, drink beer, and eat pizza, and needed a good excuse. I started playing online shortly after the first online card rooms opened and it wasn't long before I was playing 20, 30, or even 40 hours a week or more. One day I received a phone call about a program manager position at Tiltware which was the company that consulted to Full Tilt Poker on software development and marketing. After Tiltware I spent about 2.5 years working at Party Poker where I was the poker room manager.

He didn’t stay away too long. According to “credible sources”, CardPlayer said he was headed back this past weekend. So much for a retirement; I wouldn’t even call that a hiatus. Seems more like the 8 year-old kid that just got beat and took his ball and went home crying.
