We usually have a blogger-iffic rant to present to you every Friday, but I’m really not in a ranting kind of mood today. Instead, I feel like it’s been a while since we’ve really clued you all in to what’s going around here at Full Tilt Poker. Blame the WSOP, blame Tiffany Michelle’s breasts, blame us for not doing our jobs properly. Hell, blame Canada if you want. Whatever the case may be, you guys deserve better. So here’s a quick rundown of what’s going on around these parts, plus a little teaser of great things to come:

Welcome back to another round of the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge, where we take 64 of our top pros and face them off against one another until we’ve determined who’s number one. This week’s match is a seven seed versus 10 seed affair, with David “Flag Draper” Chiu taking on Barny “Not a real mobster” Boatman. One quick note before we get started: I’m an idiot. I completely underrated Chiu as I was making the seeding for this competition. He deserves to be a much lower seed than he is, and I apologize to everyone out there for this grave injustice. With that said, let’s get this party started:

Email us at pokerfromtherail@fulltiltpoker.com with any comments, questions, or conspiracy theories about the battle for Tiffany Michelle’s breasts. On to the show:

Welcome back for another round of action in the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge, where we take 64 of our top pros and face them off one by one to determine who’s the top dog of them all. This week’s match is our final six seed versus 13 seed showdown, with Steve “Fly like an eagle” Zolotow taking on Jon “Thank god my favorite band isn’t Limp Bizkit” Turner. Today’s match will once again be slightly abbreviated due to prior engagements (i.e. getting drunk); we’ll try our best to return to our regularly scheduled programming as soon as possible. Let’s get this party started:

Welcome one and all to the show that never ends – that’s right, it’s time for a little Reader Mail. Unfortunately, due to time constrictions, I’m going to have make this a rather brief mailbag today. The powers that be have decided to move us out of our dungeon and into gen pop at this very time, so we’re busy picking the Post-It notes off our walls and pouring out a 40 for our fallen homie. But, as they say, the show must go on. Hit us up at pokerfromtherail@fulltiltpoker.com with any comments, questions, or general concerns for our safety now that we’ve been removed from our sanctuary and forced to mingle with other “real people.” On to the show:

Welcome back to another round of the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge, where we take 64 of our top pros and pit them against one another in metaphorical steel-cage death matches to determine the greatest Full Tilt Poker pro of them all. This week’s match is the third of our 6 seed versus 11 seed showdowns, with Andy “Tilt happens” Black taking on Jordan “Luck has nothing to do with it” Morgan. Let’s get this show on the road:

Welcome back to another breath-taking edition of Reader Mail, where we put the “fun” in fundamentally poker related reading. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride as we rip into this week’s mailbag. Email us at pokerfromtherail@fulltiltpoker.com with any comments, questions, or any half-baked ideas that occurred to you when you were uh, well, half baked. On to the show:

Welcome back to another round of the Full Tilt Poker Heads-Up Challenge, where we take 64 of our top pros and pit them against one another in a Mortal Kombat style showdown. OK, so nobody gets killed, but you get the idea. This week’s match is the second of our six seed versus 11 seed showdowns, as John “May or may not be from Miami” Cernuto takes on Niki “I shouldn’t have switched screen names” Jedlicka. This should be a good match folks, as we have an established vet taking on one of poker’s young guns. One quick note before we get started, today’s match will be a slightly abridged version of what we normally do, as I’m feeling lazy today and could only be bothered with seven categories, not the usual nine. Without further ado:
