Poker. Travel. Repeat.
In case you haven’t heard, Phil Hellmuth captured his 13 WSOP bracelet the other week in Cannes. It was his second bracelet of the year after taking down the $2500 Razz event in Las Vegas earlier this summer. This WSOPE title makes Hellmuth the only person to have won both a WSOP and WSOP Main…

First off, I would just like to say thanks to Bill for allowing me the chance to write for his site. I have been a regular reader off and on for a while after discovering that his was one of the highest read blogs around at this time. So when you hear something like that…
While the impact on poker players and poker operators has been well documented not only in the poker community but also in the mainstream media, not a lot has been said about how affiliates were impacted. Shortly after Full Tilt began issuing statements which implied that they might not be able to get players paid…
Some old photographs of Las Vegas in the early years.
When Full Tilt Poker launched Rush Poker in 2010 it was a breath of fresh air in an industry that hadn’t seen much innovation.

I finished up listening to the Howard Lederer 2p2 PokerCast with Mike and Adam last night. Another, somewhat painful, three hours of Howard rehashing the rise and fall of Full Tilt Poker.

Phil Ivey’s Betrayal Ever since this first began I have…
I’ve watched the first four episodes of the Howard Lederer interviews multiple times since they were released. I’ve read and re-read Andy Bloch’s interview with Diamond Flush. I’ve begun to write a post about both several times. Because both are so lengthy and cover so much ground, it’s difficult to find a concise way to…
Anybody who has been reading this site for a while may remember that I’ve written about Zynga real money poker in the past. Originally, I wanted to dispel the idea that Zynga was guaranteed to become the next PokerStars due to their size and player base. At the time, I noted that Zynga had failed…
I’ve been chatting with the folks who helped put out All In: The Poker Movie and I thought it might be interesting to hear from the director, Douglas Tirola. I have a few questions in mind but I wanted to open it up a bit and see what questions you guys might have for Doug.…
