Date: Tue, Nov 15, 2011

Stingrays in Grand Cayman and Skydiving in Cali

Date: Mon, Nov 14, 2011

Some more non-poker related videos. Here’s a video shot in Grand Cayman of a stingray feeding dive we did. The funny part is that for all of the danger people think is involved with diving with sharks I actually received my worst animal related bite from a stingray. While trying to feed one of the [...]

Shark Diving

Date: Thu, Nov 10, 2011

Last night I did an interview for the Poker Affiliate Listings radio/podcast show and Jeremy mentioned my list of travels. Well, coincidentally I’ve been going through a bunch of old videos and such and ran across some stuff that I thought I would share for those of you who enjoy some of the non-poker content [...]

Oh Behave

Date: Tue, Nov 8, 2011

“You have to write something on your blog about live players.”  A friend said that to me the other day and while I normally don’t do requests I thought it was a timely subject as many online players transition to live poker. In the course of maybe four sessions I’ve either seen or have had [...]

What Online Poker Can Learn From The Dotcoms

Date: Sun, Oct 30, 2011

The other night I was invited to get-together with some of my comrades from the old dotcom days.  It was good to catch up and see people I haven’t seen since HTML programmers with no formal education in software engineering thought nothing about asking for (and getting) $75K+ starting salary and a BMW signing bonus.

The second super satellite event of the Partouche Poker Tour is scheduled for February 24th through the 27th in Aix en Provence. Some of you may remember the cheating debacle from last year involving Ali Tekintamgac and alleged members of the poker media helping him cheat.

The Online Poker Arms Race

Date: Sun, Jan 23, 2011

Before I get started I wanted to take a second and thank Michael Jones over at Part Time Poker for bringing together three seemingly unrelated topics which I had been stewing on for awhile. Him mentioning all three in the same article sort of forced me to sit down and put digital pen to digital [...]

Finally, something original! by Yair Panet

Date: Thu, Jan 20, 2011

Recently, we had an online discussion about the lack of a genuine social experience around online poker. I stressed my view that although poker is by essence a social game, the online sites (perhaps barring Zynga) are pulling their hands from making a real connection between the players (since I’ve started writing this post Pokerstars [...]

A Night Out

Date: Sun, Jan 16, 2011

Last night was fun. Mark from Melted Felt and Sit and Go Planet fame was in Bangkok with Erika and I texted new BKK resident, Tim from Pokerology, to come meet us at my friend Scott’s birthday party over on Soi 22.
