Bloggers On The Rail - Top Blogger Tourneys
Posted by AlCantHang | Filed under Bloggers on the Rail
At the dawn of online poker, it was practically impossible to arrange a private tournament on any of the sites. Iggy would spend countless hours working with sites that did not have the ability to have private events and were not terribly interested in doing so just to get a blogger tournament scheduled every few months. Obviously that all changed and now you can have you own private tournament in the amount of time it takes to write an email.
Popular actor, author, and blogger Wil Wheaton was one of the first to really run a large, regularly scheduled private blogger tournament and set the standard. These days you can look under the Private Tournament tab in the Full Tilt Poker game lobby and find pages full of private games. The blogger tournaments are more laid back than your standard multi-table tournament with the same buy-in, with plenty of banter between participants and generally better play. But, as with any blogger tournament, always beware of The Hammer.

Bloggers On The Rail - No Rhyme Or Reason
Posted by AlCantHang | Filed under Bloggers on the Rail
Today’s blogger list includes some you’ve probably never read. From these five you can learn a little something about the game, get yourself a laugh and then pad your bankroll at the end. Some are famous and one is infamous. I give you one of the best blogger MTT players then easily the worst. An ex-lawyer, a tall flyover funnyman and a link to the Liz Liz Lieu flickr page. There is no rhyme or reason with today’s list. Just some of my favorite people and good reads. Enjoy.

Bloggers On The Rail - Top Five Poker Blog Survivors
Posted by AlCantHang | Filed under Bloggers on the Rail
It’s nearly impossible to track down when the first blog dedicated to poker hit the internet. In the early days, poker blogs would pop up every day and just as quickly disappear. There were few bloggers who could dedicate their entire site to poker and stay interested enough to keep it going.
My next five recommended sites have not only survived but continue to improve. They offer up their daily words to the poker gods and we thank them by wasting our workday reading them.
