Being a woman in poker is hard – a lot of women have to prove themselves twice as much because they do not get any respect even though they show great results.
The girl I met up with last night at PartyPoker’s World Open had much more than great results behind her – she had the respect of her colleagues and an amazingly big heart.
I have only seen Sandra Naujoks on few...

It’s over, we have a Champion, and that man is Sam Trickett!
Trickett was phenomenal in his Heat, and equally prolific in the final, impressing anyone who watched him from the comfort of the commentary booth.
Heads-up, he was facing one of the world’s hottest talents, but he didn’t release his finger off the trigger and was able to bamboozle one of the game’s great minds.
As...

Poker is not a hazardous sport and that is why some people get into it but hanging with your poker buddies can be very dangerous.
Last year’s World Open winner Phil Laak almost lost his life when he went ATV-ing with his friend, Antonio Esfandiari.
The group went bezerker and The Unabomber ended up in a hospital with 7 broken bones and some plastic plates in his eyes. Pretty...

‘He is a huge online shark! He has made 3 million USD in less than 3 years, he actually is a machine’, I heard as I was passing the set in the Palm Beach Casino yesterday on my way to set up for another day of poker.
I glanced over the table and saw Yevgeniy Timoshenko - I knew they were talking about him but it was hard for me to put the actions and the face together....

I met up with a really good friend last night in the break of the World Open VI heat 2 and we talked about the value of money in poker.
I always see poker players as people I chat to, hang out with and give most of my time to, as the casinos are always my second home. I don’t see them as millionaires who could probably buy up half of the city.
That amount of money would be life...

What a week it’s been in London! I didn’t even recover from the WPT London, I jumped straight into the World Open to work my multi-tasking magic. Interviews, pictures, being an absolute tweet machine, according to Andrew Robl, who won the Heat 2, actually and before I know it, got so close to fulfilling my Triple Crown dream. Last week I spoke to Phil Ivey and got some good...John Duthie wins heat 3 of the World Ope...

The jubilant champion today is John Duthie, the EPT head honcho admittedly finding some big hands in crucial spots, but still deserving of his victory after making a few timely bluffs and applying the pressure when weakness was smelt.
Like Mahmood, his style is equally bewitching, and often highly unpredictable, but that’s what makes him such a dangerous player and an acquistion to...
