Live Poker

Yesterday, I was browsing through my twitter (shameless link placement) and I ran across the following tweet from Gloria Balding: GloriaJoy[http://twitter. com/#%21/GloriaJoy] Packing like a mad woman to move across the country to Virginia. Countdown T-Minus 4 days. As a resident of Virginia, the first thing that came to my mind was.

Christmas is this weekend and I figured I would blog about what I am thankful for as we are approaching the holiday season. First, I am thankful to be alive. As simple as that sounds, last year I could not have told you whether I would live to see another Christmas. I will blog about that sometime in the future.

The WSOP Europe has reached their final table with Shawn Buchanan, Chris Moorman, and Jake Cody headlining.   Normally I would wait until after Main Event was finished to update my predictions, but since none of my predictions are impacted by the final table, I figured I would go ahead and share how I did. *Phil Hellmuth Will Have One Strong Showing and May Take the POY Lead - Push* After Hellmuth whiffed Events 2 through 7, I almost considered this a loss, but since my wording said "may take the lead" I get to call this a push.   I know, I am angle shooting my own predictions.

The World Series of Poker Europe just kicked off on Friday at Casino Barriere de Cannes Croisette and the Hôtel Majestic Barrière in Cannes, France. As usual, I like to make predictions regarding the series, but I am a bit late getting to them this time around. Here are some of my predictions for this years WSOP-E. *Phil Hellmuth Will Have at Least 1 Strong Showing and May Take POY Lead* Phil Hellmuth has been on a tear at the WSOP this year and I believe that he will continue it through the WSOP-E.
