Rich Muny – Online Poker Engineer

Browsing an edition of the local Louisville, Kentucky newspaper, I happened upon the social events section. I was surprised to see the announcement of a poker tournament; not just any tourney, but the No Limit Texas Hold’em Derby Poker Championship. Over the past three years, this event has brought celebrities and some of poker’s biggest names to Louisville.

As it turned out, 2010 would be no different. Poker legends Phil Hellmuth and Team Full Tilt member Chris “Jesus” Ferguson would be there, playing alongside actor Jesse Spencer (Dr. Chase o

Window shopping for Christmas gifts

Owen Lock — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 08:45:50 +0000

When it comes to buying Christmas gifts for loved ones and friends one would probably wish for a readymade wish-list, although fitting it into the budget may be another thing.

Gifts received or given bring us just as much pleasure and yet most of the gifts we’ve got have been things we don’t really need. The things we’d most wish for are rarely ever found under those glittering wrappings.

It’s so much easier for children who simply get to write out a wish-list for Santa or might even say it aloud in front of a parent and magically find them in the sock on Christmas Day.

Until they realize, of course, that Father Christmas’ gifts are actually delivered by their parents, which is when the items on the wish-list might suddenly grow larger in size.

While preparing a gift list it’s always a good idea to begin with putting down the names of all the people you need to buy gifts for. Then jot do

The Full Tilt Poker Deal Moves Ahead

Owen Lock — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 03:40:46 +0000

According to the latest press reports and agreement has been reached between the owners of the online poker site Full Tilt and the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) over the final terms of their forfeiture agreement, despite reports that Chris Ferguson was creating problems. The deal with Groupe Bernard Tapie (GBT) can now move forward.

Laurent Tapie, the managing director of GBT, said that there are still several steps involved in the completion of the takeover of Full Tilt Poker by his firm. The immediate action required is to get the Alderney Gambling Control Commission to reactivate Full Tilt’s license. For that GBT is in the process of completing its due diligence, after which it will again approach the licensing authority. G

Wider World of Poker – A departed veteran, gambling for profit, Hansen’s big game, and minor-celebrity poker

Natasha Laidlaw — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 15:07:57 +0000

I live under the thumb of a tyrannical regime. My actions are dictated by the whims of shadowy figures, who move throughout the country, placing their targets under de facto house arrest while they wait for many tortuous hours. Then, just when you we think the danger has past, a doorbell announces their arrival. In other words, I’m having a new oven delivered today and therefore cannot leave my flat. At least the 4 hour delivery estimate I was kindly furnished with gives me plenty of time to scrounge up some exciting news from the Wider World of Poker.

The Pascua Yaqui tribe of Tucson has taken a reasoned approach toward expansion: When the market is ready, the tribe is ready.

Mark Birtha, a Las Vegas gaming veteran, was brought in last year to develop the new project and operate the facility. He discusses the goals of the tribe and how they hope the new facility will help them accomplish those goals.

Liv Boeree–what keeps her up at night and what she values

Owen Lock — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 01:20:41 +0000

When you win an EPT title your world changes overnight; and if you’re Liv Boeree, the whole world comes knocking at your door. Or at least that’s the way it seemed when she described it to me recently. Liv’s win at the PokerStars 2010 EPT San Remo netted her € 1,250,000 and changed her life forever. It also brought her into the public limelight in a way she hadn’t imagined. PokerStars was the first to come calling, but there were so many others that her phone “rang off the wall” for days. The BBC, the Daily Mail, and others kept her going at warp speed, just fielding all the calls. “I was in national newspapers and magazines,” she said to me more than once, as if she still has a hard time believing it. “

Natasha Laidlaw — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 19:13:19 +0000

A new service from Bubbleprotection.com provides online poker tournament players a hedge against busting out while almost ‘in the money’, but not ‘almost’ enough. Well, we’ve all been there.

Remember the last time when you almost made the cut off point, when you were practically ‘in the money’, with a healthy stack, but something went wrong. Maybe some donkey on a lucky streak decided to re-raise all in with K-9o against your Queens (just because they like dogs) and the go and catch an inside straight?’

Maybe you just passed out at 6am piss drunk. Who knows.

In any case, this is where bubble protection comes in to save the day. The tournament

Jonathan Duhamel robbery suspects appear in court

Noah Reddall — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 08:19:32 +0000

It seems there is a new twist and turn in the home invasion and robbery of 2010 WSOP Champion Jonathan Duhamel each day, and what began as a simple case of robbery has grown into a bizarre case worthy of a Hollywood script. In the latest news coming out of Canada regarding the home invasion that lead to the theft of over $100,000, a custom Rolex, and Duhamel’s 2010 WSOP Championship bracelet the defendants were in court for a bail hearing when testimony started be presented.

The main player in the case seems to be Bianca Rojas Latraverse, a former girlfriend of Duhamel, who not only planned the robbery but also was loose-lipped about it, sending a number of text messages detailing her intentions. I
