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.

Oh, crap! I forgot. I had some great posts (by others) bookmarked, too!
Next time. Sorry, Bill.
Just one point of clarification. I share few to none of my wife’s Quaker views on poker. However, I did stop playing for a short while, and I believe I called this the “Quaker approach” to poker.
