Birthday Break

Only time for a quick post as I am leaving town for a couple of days. So a short break from the regular WSOPish goings-on around here as I take a quick trip to refresh and recharge. And . . . it so happens . . . it’s my birthday. So I might have a piece of sheet cake. Or at least a popsicle.

Meanwhile, scroll down if you to read about Friday’s hearing of the House Financial Services Committee on the question “Can Internet Gambling be Effectively Regulated to Protect Consumers and the Payments System?” And down and down and down.

If you need a laugh after that, go download the latest episode of Beyond the Table -- or just play it on the player over there on the right. This one was recorded the day before the WSOP began, so none of the voices you hear belong to WSOP bracelet winners. The last one for which that can be said, actually. Do note what Tom says about split games.

And when yr done listenin’, head over to PokerNews’ live reporting from the WSOP for all the latest.
