A couple days ago, I announced the start of the Blog’s third essay contest, Buy the Coach. Maybe the process of explaining how you’d prepare for the final table of the WSOP Main Event is a daunting one or you’re taking admirable care in crafting your entries, but I haven’t gotten very many responses.
I’m giving away three $200 + $16 buy-ins to the FTOPS X Turbo NLHE event on November 11. Right now, it looks like your chances of winning are excellent – if you enter.

I’m trying to maintain some equilibrium in my life because, after all, results-oriented thinking should be discouraged in poker. The key is to play well all the time. The results will follow, but not always equal to the quality of your play.
That’s the theory, anyway. But results feel good – or bad. Getting aces cracked doesn’t pay any bills. In fact, for the most part I can’t even WRITE about losing the way I can about winning.

Dear Uncle Tilty:
Nobody can say it hasn’t been a rocky road for us lately. The World Series was a disjointed mess. London was a disaster. When I look back on it, I think some of the writing was good, but there were definitely times I wanted to quit, and probably some times where I should have been fired.

You’ve made the Final Table of the Main Event of the 2008 World Series of Poker. Congratulations!
But don’t rest on your laurels. You’ve made $900k but there’s up to $8.1 million more on the table. With almost four months between making the final table and playing it out, you have an unprecedented opportunity to improve your chances.

I just read the news that OJ Simpson was convicted in that robbery case that involved the Palace Station, some of his memorabilia (including, I thought I once heard, the suit he was wearing when he was acquitted in his murder case, which has to qualify as ”ironic” on some level), and a group of “friends” who raced to sell their story to TV, tabloids, and tabloid-TV. Not surprisingly, several of them “flipped” at trial.
It’s probably now safe for me to tell my side of the story. That is, the Full Tilt side of the story.

Congratulations to John Juanda, 2008 World Series of Poker European Champion. Like nearly everyone else, I was following the marathon final table from home, thanks to outstanding daily reports from media director Nolan Dalla and superb table-reporting by Pokernews.com.
