I bluffed off my entire stack. I got 7 8. The amateur player raised to 20,000. I had 250,000 left. I called, the big blind called. Flop comes K J 2, two diamonds It was checked to me. I bet, big blind called, other guy folded. The turn came […]

Were about 80% through the tournament now. We’re getting close to the money, we can smell it. I got into a pot with Steve Dannenmann. Steve finished 2nd in the WSOP Main Event last year, and picked up 5,000,000 dollars. It was nice to knock him out, and get another notch […]

Its been an interesting time from the halfway point to the ¾ stage, where we are now. I have been grinding really hard. My stack got down to about 110,000. I took a big hit from Juha Helppi. I ran into quad tens against Ace Jack with the board reading 10 […]

I came in this morning with 109,000 in chips, in the top ten percent of chip stacks. What a table I had. The champion of this event in 2004, Martin Dekjniff was in the middle of the table, but didn’t have a whole lot of chips, just under 50,000. Allen Cunningham was […]

I played my day one today. We started with 50,000 chips. 606 players entered. $3.75 million to the winner. Even the 100th place player gets $43,000. It’s a fantastic event. You get seven days of play.

Well, I’m in the final of the Intercontinental Poker Championship. This will be heads up….everyone will see this on CBS.
My biggest accomplishment is knocking out the Russian out twice. Having a Lithuanian background, I love to knock Russian’s out. I’ve got Ralph Perry’s number. Ralph called me with King Jack suited, […]

An amazing game today. The first heat of the Intercontinental Poker Championships. What a field. The lineup was Tony G in Seat one, Doyle Brunson, Daniel Negreanu, and Carlos Mortensen. I was in the mood to play today. I’m not here to lose my money. I’m not here to […]

I’m in Las Vegas preparing for the Intercontinental Cup coming up on the 14th. This will be aired on CBS all around America, so everyone will get to see this. We have 21 players from every poker playing country in the world that they have selected. We have Johnny Chan playing for […]

Its all over. Team USA have outclassed us. We just weren’t good enough today. But, it was a great match, and it will be great TV. Our soccer player was out of sorts a bit today, and made a few mistakes, folding a couple hands he could have checked. But, […]

I really enjoyed the concept where teams get to play other teams and great poker players get to mix with soccer stars.
Today team Australia played vs Canada that included Evelyn Ng & Daniel Negreanu
We dominated from the kick off with the first victim being the Canadian soccer star, soon Evelyn followed and we were […]
