Diablo 3 Beta: First Impressions
Avatar Knockoff, or Blizzard Masterpiece? I managed to get my hands on the Diablo 3 beta the other day, with the timing disturbingly similar to my finals schedule (only one more quarter of these things…). Not about to let that [...]
Full Tilt Poker Sale Inches Closer
Sale Not Done, Despite Reaction
Full Tilt has been on an up-and-down clusterfuck roller coaster this past week and right off the bat I will say that they have no one to blame but themselves. It all started with the additional complaints against Full Tilt [...]
This is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things
The Nuclear Bomb Oh boy, has the last week been one drama-filled spew fest for poker. Between Epic Poker and Full Tilt, its no wonder Congress doesn’t just go the opposite direction and make poker illegal in the United States. [...]

The last time I had a 13 hour day was…well…it was last week actually…but still it was a particularly long day as we had to burst the bubble in the inaugural Epic Poker League event. I actually spent the entire [...]
Embedded in the Poker Media: EPL 6-Max Main Event Day 1
So here we are. The main reason most of us (indeed 99% of the people with media badges) are here is for the main event, and day one was…to say the least, quite action packed. Since I’ll blow my format [...]
Embedded in the Poker Media: EPL Pro/Am Final Table
OK, so the title is somewhat misleading. I didn’t really pay too much attention to the final table of the pro/am, mostly because I treated the day as my day off before the more important matters of the Main Event. [...]
Embedded in the Poker Media: Day 2 EPL Pro/Am
Today the players played down from 29 to 6 in the Pro/Am and the charity tournament took place in the middle of all that. Not to say that isn’t a distraction or anything, but mercifully by that time all players [...]
