  • AlwaysBluff Online Poker Player of the year-Tom “durrrr” Dwan

    the gist: He won the most money.  Period.

  • Online’s biggest loser

    the gist: Without Guy Laliberte the high stakes games on FTP would not go often.  He literally is the economy and seems to be OK with that.  Some people question whether or not this should be in a blog but I do not think Guy cares one bit.  The amount he has lost is covered [...]

  • Michael Phelps partying with Phil Ivey

    the gist: Phelps is big time into poker playing many live events.  He also is playing a ton online.  I am sure he doesn’t mind having the best poker player in the world on speed dial.

  • Phil Galfond is not going quietly winning 530k yesterday

    the gist: Tom Dwan has a huge lead on the field but one guy that could catch him with a good run would be Phil Galfond (omgclayaiken online).
    OmgClayAiken wins 530k, this was one interesting hand

  • Funny phone conversation with BarryG and Phil Ivey

    the gist: Phil is playing online rehashing a trip to Cabo.  Some funny bits, it is only about 10 minutes and since there is nothing else to do but play online poker this is worth a listen.

  • Tom “Durrrr” Dwan has 3 million dollar lead on rest of field

    the gist: with all the fake player of the year BS being talked about there is one that actually has no debate at all.  Money won online.  So far this year that player (for no limit holdem) is Tom Dwan.

  • Chino wins WPT Doyle Brunson Five Diamond-The Redemption is complete

    the gist: As the self proclaimed best player at the final table of the WSOP many people believed that David “Chino” Rheem would breeze through the field of Amateurs only to bust out in 7th.  In a story as old as time a little more than a month later brings his redemption.  He had to [...]

  • Old guard will be watching New Guard on television, except for Hoyt Corkins

    the gist: If you want a short list of the best young players in poker you do not really have to look much further than the final table of the Five Diamond.  Chino Rheem, Steve Sung and Amnon Filippi all made it while sending home names like Mike Matusow and Clonie Gowen.  The only old [...]

  • John Phan wins Cardplayers “Player of the Year” for 2008

    the gist: It has long been argued that these awards are complete BS and if you look at the past winners it pretty much confirms it (other than the year Daniel won).  John Phan I think will also go down as a noticable exception, he had a phenomenal year taking down two WSOP bracelets and [...]
