Born 30 something years ago into a card-playing clan in the North of England: the low-roller's poker odyssey has taken him from the school common-room via down-trodden Midlands' casinos, smoky Cotswolds pubs, celebrity Soho drinking spots and of course the ubiquitous world of cyberspace to the home of poker itself, Las Vegas. Join his search for juicy take-downs, great pot odds and the occasional back-door straight as he goes for glory.

7th for Tom
An early night beckons - I have been down at the Rio today watching Tom make it to 7th - he started as the small stack and never improved although outlasting 8th and 9th netted an extra $50,000. He has a $130,000 pay-packet and is no doubt still there as it is down to the final two, with Marty Smyth, the other Irishman right up there with a Canadian. There is far too much testosterone down there. I have nothing interesting or even faintly amusing to say so I will leave you with a photo of what might have been - we were invited to a poker party tonight with Shannon Elizabeth.....
