So Close But Yet So What
by Tommy Angelo 06/28/2009
I'm not saying I'm unsympathetic or anything, like when we went double or nothing on the last hole and it came down to where all you had to do was make a three-foot putt to get even.I was rooting for you to make it, but then again I wasn't.

by David Apostolico 06/27/2009

Vanunu - My Favorite Poker Game
by Daniel Negreanu 06/21/2009
That’s a strange title, I know. Vanunu is the name of a poker game that we invented way back when I was playing in my $1-$5 game in high school. To this day, it remains the most thought-provoking and skill-demanding game I’ve ever played in my life.
