In a recent post I made the unfortunate mistake of calling Russ Fox, Rick Fox. As we all know Russ Fox is a noted poker author and organizer of the Escargot poker series. Rick Fox used to play basketball or something.

You can see how I could get the two mixed up. One is tall, dark and handsome and the other is a basketball player.

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.
