Barry Tanenbaum has left the game
Unfortunately for us Barry Tanenbaum won’t be back to grace a poker table with his always cheerful demeanor and clean, whole attitude about the game of poker. His last post on his website was in July 2009. Linda Johnson’s tribute to Barry is only a small picture of how much he meant to the poker world. The statement ‘the poker world’ may seem trivial to some but that is how we experience people when we are ‘in the game’ and those memories stick forever.
I knew Barry from dealing to both him and his wife, but not personally away from the table. All I can say is we need more players like him. RIP Barry.

Family and fun!
I’ve had company since Monday, it’s been great. Jennie and Rain are here from Springfield. It’s been an all girl kind of thing with 3 year old Rain pretty much calling the shots. You know how girls are, even little ones, they know everything and it’s their way or the highway. She’s a serious hoot! Continue reading Family and fun!
November Nine – The Heat is ON!
Today’s the day the boys come back to the Rio and try to come out of the thick of battle as the last one standing! It will be exciting! It will be monumental for the one that takes down the championship. I’m thinking Ben Lamb!
Winter has come to the high desert
Everyone in Pahrump is either high or wishes they were and they live in the desert. OK, never mind. I doubt the average is high enough to include everyone. Point is it’s colder than a well digger’s ass at night right now. Continue reading Winter has come to the high desert
