Date: Wed, Sep 17, 2008 Internet Tournament

This basically applies to people with Windows-based PCs.  Most people on Mac and Linux don’t have too much to worry about, but a bunch of the steps can be taken by the non-windows folks as well.

This can’t be good use of sales space

Date: Tue, Sep 16, 2008 Internet Tournament

If anyone is worried about the paper supply in Costa Rica, I can confirm that everything is okay. I can also confirm that store managers in Costa Rica are not at all concerned about efficient product placement in prime sales spots in their stores. This is a picture I took on my cell phone at [...]

Interview and blog traffic

Date: Tue, Sep 16, 2008 Internet Tournament

A couple quick things to post about… First, I did an interview with stevesbets and Part 1 of it is up on PocketFives.  I tried to make it interesting, so hopefully people enjoy it.  Part 2 should be up later this week (it’s done, but I guess P5s wanted to split it up a bit). Second, here [...]

The Joys of Returning Home

Date: Thu, Sep 11, 2008 Internet Tournament

So I get home on Monday and as I walk into my condo, it smells like a garbage dump.  I wasn’t sure what to think at first… until I flipped a light switch and noticed the power was out.  I’m a little scared at this point to open up the freezer, but I do so [...]

Typical Costa Rica Travelers

Date: Mon, Sep 8, 2008 Internet Tournament

I’m sitting here at the airport gate here in Atlanta. I’m about to fly back to Costa Rica and I’ve basically realized there are only a few types of people who go to Costa Rica. 1. Packs of 19 year old American girls 2. Shady-looking middle age males who are probably involved in sportsbooks 3. [...]

Date: Sun, Sep 7, 2008 Internet Tournament

Great event, I really enjoyed it. It’s 3:30 AM and I’m pretty tired, but here are some of the good pics that I got. Keep in mind that I was in a private box rented out by FIGHT! Magazine, so we were kind of far away compared to other seats. Of course, [...]

BetUS Poker SEO Review

Date: Fri, Sep 5, 2008 Internet Tournament

I am going to start mixing in posts with pages for my Poker SEO section. This is an SEO review of BetUS Poker, which is a subdirectory in their website. I’ll start off with the bad and sloppy things that I see on the site: 1.  http://www.betus.com/poker/Default.aspx returns a 200. But it still redirects to [...]

UFC 88 (wheeee)

Date: Thu, Sep 4, 2008 Internet Tournament

I’m starting to get really excited for this weekend.  First, tomorrow night is the FIGHT! Magazine party.  I’m not sure if my blog readers are aware, but FIGHT! is a property of BLUFF Media which I own a small piece of.  Whatever you think of BLUFF, you have to commend them for growing FIGHT! mag [...]
