I've been spending some time chatting with folks on Twitter and have gotten acquainted with Trevor Holewinski. He runs a pretty cool poker blog called Pokerplasm. Trevor is also an instrumental force in the Twitter Poker Tour, a weekly 'home' game played online at Poker Stars and Full Tilt.
Recently, Trevor sat down with me and gave me a great interview at Tourneyblog. I'm happy to share it here.
Hey everyone, if you've got some time tonight - there's a special charity event at Full Tilt. Erick Lindgren is hosting. It's only $5 + 5 and benefits the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
I can't wait to play. I signed on before I found out my father-in-law has lymphoma. He was dx'ed just this week. Although we have high hopes he'll be fine, this cause is even more special to me now.
It's a great cause and a slew of full tilt's best and brightest have already put in their buy-ins including Matt Vengrin, Allen Cunningham and more...
Even if you're not in the US this week, why not think about what you're most thankful for? I am very thankful for poker. Lately, I've been sick with some lung problems and poker has helped keep my mind off the pain and the illness. It has kept me focused on something else. That has been a blessing of sorts. Poker, for me, is more than a game. It's therapy.
Happy thanksgiving everyone, even if you don't technically celebrate the US holiday of over-eating turkey and carbohydrates. Hope to see you at the tables. I'm mostly at Full Tilt these days, using my online handle there (panndyra).
Do you Twitter? Twitter is a mini-blog service where you can post short updates on what you're doing. I update there a lot under dcgoodson. Recently, some people got together and began the Twitter Poker Tour. Open to anyone and everyone, the games are played at Poker Stars and Full Tilt.
More info can be found at the Twitter Poker Tour's main web site or at Twitter at #TPT.
As I sit and watch the Omen II and this lady get her eyes get gouged out by a crow, I realize how much I love this holiday. The sheer destructive nature of the holiday. The deep darkness of it all. The devastation of the season. Reminds me of the camp and gore that ushers in the goodness. It is the evil 'cleansing' that we must do to bring out the goodness in ourselves. I'm ready to get evil for a few more days...time to play so NLHE.
BTW...nice batman costume, Poker Spokesman! See y'all Saturday if I'm still lucid :)
