Aruba around the corner, Annie Duke in Washington, and P0ker J0 working out??

Friday, July 31, 2009 - P0ker J0

Hey Hey Hey

Another Friday – wow the Summer is flying by.  It won’t belong before the weather starts getting cooler – and we all know what that means…..Aruuuuuuuuuuuba bound!  I just booked my flights yesterday so I’m on my way.  This will be my 5th year in Aruba and it truly feels like a family reunion.  I am so blessed to have met so many players that return each year with a smile on their face – just happy to be on one happy island.  Well this year will mark UB’s 10th birthday so I am assuming there will be many opportunities to celebrate.  We have a few big music folks in attendance this year too. Very exciting. I hope to see a huge turnout this year – all 0f the pros will be there and of course Mr. Hellmuth will be hosting a private VIP party in the penthouse.  Be there or be square!

So Annie Duke was Washington last week lobbying for poker players around the country.  She met with a number of key players in congress with the goal of educating them on everything poker.  By the sounds of things, her visit (along with other key poker players) has made an impact.  I guess time will tell but thanks to you Annie for stepping up and making a statement!

Before Aruba we have the WSOPE and I know many of my pros are headed across the pond to play some poker and no doubt have some pints while they are there.  I LOVE England and would do almost anything to go live there.  I love the people, the architecture and the history.  I only wish I was headed over there myself with the guys!  Oh well – cheers anyway!

Our very own Hollywood Dave played and WON the VIP tournament last Tuesday.  Kudos to you HD!!  This coming Tuesday watch out for the great Michael Binger to see if he can do the same!

Well I am off to the gym – wow you say??  Yes! P0ker J0 has started working out.  I do need to get in shape and I do need to be healthy but most of all – I have to be able to run and catch any person seen running away with my shoes in Aruba!!! :)

Have a good week

P0ker J0 out!
