I keep wondering why no one seems to be blogging about the difficulties U.S. players are having getting money out of Full Tilt Poker these days. Personally, I’ve made two withdrawals that are overdue, the site has stopped writing checks … Continue reading →

While reviewing The Big Game, I used to watch a commercial for Poker Stars, in which many of their top pros narrated a hand.
