I’ve been really fighting to keep my head above water the last several days. Consequently, some of the Full Tilt news updates have been sitting on my computer, half-written for several days. In addition, I have another pair of blogs with some good things for online tournament players to think about, currently incomplete.

We wuz robbed.

Speaking of the Super Bowl, it is (A) the world’s biggest gambling event, (B) a gigantic big deal in Las Vegas, (C) a gambling-poker downer during the game itself.  The entire poker world is watching game so there’s no one (but us) to win all the juicy Sunday tournament prizes.

Last Sunday, January 25, at 16:37, Full tilt went over the 100,000-player mark for the first time in its history.  To confirm this, I contacted Uncle Tilty.  I fear I may have touched off a minor riot in the Full Tilt Palace.  “If we are over 100,000 players, it’s the first time.  And this is how I find out?  From YOU?”

I called my hotel’s transportation department for a recommendation on a ride to the New Orleans Airport. I should have taken the giggling on the other end of the line as a bad sign.
