Never lacking an opinion, compncards brings his individual blogging style to Poker Junkie. Compncards is probably best known for his work covering the 2008 World Series of Poker.

Unlike many players that picked up the game seriously since 2004, compncards prefers Limit poker over No Limit. Considers his best game Stud 8 or Better but has had success in Limit Holdem tournaments as well. Numerous professional cashes including deep runs in Limit Holdem events during the 2006 and 2007 WSOP. He also thinks that the Main Event at the WSOP should be the $50,000 H.O.R.S.E. event and not the "lottery" that the Main Event is currently.

While his opinions may not be popular to all, you can be assured that he will speak his mind regarding issues in the poker world.
