It wasn’t an especially interesting week for the most part until Friday, when the US government seized the top poker websites.  I haven’t played online poker in years, so it didn’t directly effect me, but there will be more fallout from this.  I’m finally in a groove with Free Picks and Fun and had some [...]

by Marc July 21, 2010
