Having been in and around professional tournament and high stakes poker world for the past 6 years, this blog will do its best to provide you with the stories that the "mags" don't want to publish.
I'm not an angry man, nor am I "out to get" anyone, but the real stories of what goes on "inside" the world of poker are the ones we'll publish here. Too many of the commercial magazines are afraid to touch stories that put poker or poker rooms and players in any light other than good. We'll tell the REAL story, whether or not it hurts.
Before I post my next post I need to consult with the folks at the WSOP, but I'll tell you the story I'm working on. There is a poker player from Bakersfield, Ca. who qualified legitimately to play in the WSOP main event despite his handicap of being BLIND. The WSOP has apparently (according to KGET) told this player he cannot play in the main event. Being fair, and a journalist, I will attempt to get BOTH SIDES of the story. Watch for it in the next 3 days, as I'm going to give WSOP officials the weekend to respond to my queries.
