Bloggers On The Rail – Million Dollar Cash Game

britblogger2008 Bloggers On The Rail   Million Dollar Cash Game

For 5 weeks we ran a Brit Blogger Challenge to award two players a trip to London to watch the Million Dollar Cash Game.  The Challenge drew players from throughout the United Kingdom and the play was entertaining.  In the end, blogger Acornman and reader BURNLEY FC BB10 (Bullmeister) outlasted the field and earned their way to mingle with the big names and watch the high stakes action.

Acornman forwarded on his trip report and it he had a great time.

For more Million Dollar Cash Game coverage from Germany and London, check out Michael Craig’s blog as he followed along with all the action.

Bond18 – Around the World in 90 Days: Day 96

“So you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.”

–Harvey Dent

When I think about the entry I wrote last night I think it’s important to elaborate on a few things, especially the continuing to unfold Cornell Fiji story.

I failed to mention that Steve had a considerable hand in creating the TJ Cookier comic (though it was addressed in the post.) I originally wrote the script  while relaxing in Macau then sent it off to Steve to get his input, additions, and editing. This was roughly a week before the drama began to unfold. When the thread went up and began exploding with views Steve sent me (as well as his backers) a private message doing his best to explain himself and everything that happened. I agreed not to share the exact contents of that message, though a considerable bit of it was made public with his approval.

Million Dollar Cash Game Mania!

The Million Dollar Cash Game is taking place right now in London, and our brother in Full Tilt Poker blogging Michael Craig is there now live blogging the action on his Full Tilt Poker Blog. I’d suggest that all you high-stakes poker fans out there go check out Michael’s posts and get a taste of the action for yourselves. I personally enjoyed this post on Phil Ivey basically pwning Mike Matusow’s soul. Poor Mikey, you were running so good during the Series and then this had to happen. We feel for you buddy, but you can’t let Ivey into your head like that.

For those of you who live in Europe, you’ll be able to watch the Million Dollar Cash Game on Sky Sports starting next January, so keep an eye out for that. As for the rest of you, well, this is why YouTube was invented…

Welcome to Poker From The Rail

Welcome to Poker From The Rail, a poker blog brought to you by Full Tilt Poker. We aim to give our readers the best in poker news, entertainment, pro interviews and somewhat intelligible blogger-iffic rants. We’re also extremely pleased to host Bond18 on his poker quest as he travels Around the World in 90 Days, as well as AlCantHang and his band of Bloggers on the Rail as they dissect the inner-workings of this little game we like to call poker. Al has some great posts from guest bloggers lined up; don’t miss out on this taste of poker blogging at its finest.

This new and improved version of The Rail has a few features that did not exist in our previous incarnation:

  1. We now have a five-star rating system, so be sure to rate each post that you read.
  2. You’re also now free to leave a comment about any individual post or the blog as a whole. You don’t have to be nice, but we tend to respond better to constructive criticism. If your comment is too crude or insulting, we will not publish it.
  3. Our new related posts feature automatically generates a list of related posts at the end of each post. So if you like a post, be sure to check out one of the related posts, you might enjoy that one as well.
  4. If you do enjoy a post, you can now share it with a friend using Digg, Sphinn, del.icio.us, Facebook, Mixx or Google.
  5. You can now view the most popular or highest rated posts by looking in the sidebar, as well as find the post you’re looking for by author or category.

    This is the new Poker From The Rail, now loading in under five minutes. Enjoy…
