World Team Poker Opinion

I’ll be staying in Las Vegas now until the WSOP starts and focusing on the 50K event.  After that I’ll decide if I’m staying longer in Vegas or taking a trip to parts unknown for awhile.  Even if I leave during the Series, I have plans to play some of the events. I just played […]

Still in the Desert

I’m in Tucson Arizona, that’s southeast of Phoenix and just about 60 miles north of the US/Mexico Border.  I’m here to continue working on my quest for great health and a good life.  I may have to quickly jet in and play the World Team Poker event at the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas on […]

Back to my old ways

I have played a mega session of cash games with Daniel Negreanu, Phil Hellmuth, Doyle Brunson, and Phil Laak.  The show will be televised on Fox Sports in the USA starting in June.  I am going back in today and I am not allowed to talk about the results but I am back to my […]

In Las Vegas getting ready to play POKAH!

I’m staying at Wynn Las Vegas.  They take very good care of me here and gave me a nice villa with a pool.  I love it! Right now I’m getting ready to play in the Doubles Championship that is going on at the Golden Nugget.  So far I have been paired with Johnny Chan and […]

A Long Day With Viktor Blom

I played all day with Viktor in the PokerStars EPT Monte Carlo High Roller Event and got to know him pretty well as a poker player. I have my own observations and thoughts on poker players, especially after spending table time with them, and I have to be honest here.  Viktor has talent but he […]

Busted from the Main Event at Monte Carlo

I am in Monte Carlo, and just busted from the main event.  I lost 80 percent of my stack on a nasty 10 on the river when I flopped a set of Jacks.  Life really treats me so well that I am very happy to come here and get busted within the first six hours.  […]

London

I am back in London.  I was in the Isle of Man for a few days and my return trip went through Liverpool to London where I had to take a ferry and train so the trip took quite some time.  I am focusing on Monaco.  I will be going there to play the EPT.  […]

Bluffed by Isildur1

I really thought he was coming to play the PartyPoker Big Game and we had worked everything out with Eddie Hearn, managing director and organizer of Matchroom Sport, and he would be allowed to play in a mask if he wanted and we were going to raise the stakes when he came in because he […]

Staking Isildur1

Isildur1 is back online, creating a lot of noise in the high limit games and I’ve mentioned in a past blog post that I would stake him and now I’m inviting him out to play the PartyPoker.com Big Game IV in the UK from April 11-13th at Les Ambassadeurs in London.  I am offering to […]

Pauly’s Pen

The poem that Pauly used as a beginning for his post on Phil Hellmuth and me, the G, is a classic but what goes on between Hellmuth and me is beyond classic.  If you want to read more about the poem and find a varying definition of what it means, read here and here. If […]
