Some good news and bad news
Date: Mon, Jan 7, 2008 Internet Tournament
I’ll start with the bad news… 1. One of the hard drives in my laptop died. I have two hard drives in there set up in a RAID, but, unfortunately, I picked the RAID option that gave me one big 200 GB drive… Bad choice. One dying basically meant both died. 2. The [...]
2008 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure
Date: Sun, Jan 6, 2008 Internet Tournament
Obviously I am here… but a lot of people have been asking me where I’m going to put up pictures. You can spread this link around: http://www.pokerjpg.com/ At least for now, I’ll be putting up pictures there. I just installed the Gallery2 software there today, so I’m still playing around with it. I’m sure it will get [...]
Credit Card Roulette
Date: Sat, Jan 5, 2008 Internet Tournament
If you’re ever wondering what credit card roulette is like, I took a video of last night’s festivities at Carmine’s here at Atlantis. This was only a $600 bill, but you get the idea.
gifafi website scare
Date: Thu, Jan 3, 2008 Internet Tournament
One of my most precious domains (gifafi.com obv) gave me a little scare today. My friend Eric AIMed me a few minutes ago asking what had happened to gifafi.com, so I looked at it and it goes to some Global Media Ministries page or something. My first reaction was, wtf, was I hacked? Did I [...]
A little tilted
Date: Thu, Jan 3, 2008 Internet Tournament
I’m pretty much ready to get out of Philadelphia. It’s where I grew up and it will always be home in some way, but there are a bunch of things that I don’t like about it (well not Philly itself, but being away from my current home). First, I don’t have my own place here [...]

I hope everyone has a fun New Year’s Eve and a happy conclusion to your holiday season. For those of you headed to the Bahamas, I’ll see you in a few days. Also, good luck to UGA in their Jan 1st bowl game against Hawaii.
Full Tilt, Borgata, craps and more
Date: Fri, Dec 28, 2007 Internet Tournament
Last night was interesting. First, I can’t say the name of the person who I’m writing about for various reasons, so we’re going to call him Sean. Anyway, I am friends with Sean from way back when and we’ve become better friends over the last few years. Since I live in Atlanta and Sean lives in [...]
GB2005 owns
Date: Thu, Dec 27, 2007 Internet Tournament
A few months ago Gary “GB2005″ Bogdanski mentioned to me that he could hook me up with a sweet night at the Nets if I was going to be in the area at all (he’s their equipment manager). I knew I’d be home in the northeast over the holidays, so I looked at a calendar [...]
Sportscenter Tilt
Date: Sat, Dec 22, 2007 Internet Tournament
Bear in mind that I watch Sportscenter daily, I have done so for a long-time and I love the show. It’s on in the background all day. But… there’s a problem with Sportscenter that bugs me like crazy. What’s that? The absolutely RETARDED video game matchups that they put on there. I was watching [...]
thepokerdb SEO update
Date: Fri, Dec 21, 2007 Internet Tournament
This has really gone better than I could have ever hoped for. Literally every day when I check google analytics, thepokerdb’s search traffic (well, actually BLUFF) has gone up. And we haven’t even done some of the most important things! We know that we have a really long way to go with it and that [...]
Sorry about the downtime today
Date: Thu, Dec 20, 2007 Internet Tournament
I’m really getting upset at my hosting provider. I’ve been using the same dedicated server host since the spring of 2006 when I initially went there to host thepokerdb.com. But I asked them to do something REALLY simple last week and they’ve screwed it up like 8 times since then. First they [...]
First time I’d ever seen this
Date: Wed, Dec 19, 2007 Internet Tournament
I was playing pool last night with some friends of mine at a place called Twain’s in Decatur, GA and this happened, which I hadn’t seen before: This is an iPhone pic so it’s a little hard to see, but the balls are basically pinned against each other. The 14 isn’t even really on the table, [...]
