It’s been a week now since I left Las Vegas. Hurricane Sandy’s extensive wipeout of Long Island’s power grid made going home pretty pointless, and so I remained a guest of the Rio for 8 days longer than I had planned. Luckily, myself and most of my friends and family suffered only minor damage [...]
While at the WSOP, I had several opportunities to play in some rather interesting home games. Over the summer, I played holdem, plo, pineapple, three-card holdem, 5 and 6 card plo, pot limit badugi double draw, pot limit stud (starting with 4 cards), chinese, and a few other even stranger games for just an [...]

As you can see, I proudly made supernova today, and I’m on target to reach [...]
Well, it’s been quite the ride the past few weeks. There have been some changes and tweaks to the bets and lots to report (when was the last time I included actual pokerhands in a blog?). I’ve really been getting into mixed games lately, and working really hard on breaking down [...]
It has, quite obviously, taken me awhile to write a new blog entry. It’s not that I don’t have things going on – there’s certainly been plenty to write about – I’ve just been unmotivated to write in blog format this year. I have a half-dozen posts partially written and have been writing [...]
PokerStars blog post about the final table and his win.
Also he final tabled SCOOP 1 and SCOOP 28 for $350k in cashes.
