New blog!
With VegasSlotsOnline no longer publishing poker content, I'm moving most of my writing back to my personal blog, starting with this year's personal account of the Irish Poker Open

Last day in Seville hanging in hotel lobby like a pair of homeless bums before our cab to airport
Hot young mystery lady left us “minding her bag” while she supposedly runs an errand
Feel like I’ve seen this movie so posting this as first clue in the case we die in an explosion in the next hour

A lot of people were surprised how aggressively I play the early stages

When I started writing books with Barry he was literally the worst player I knew. Now he crushes
When we started it wasn’t long before our webmaster Dave started crushing
