First and foremost I would like to say Rest In Peace to Chip Reese, who was one of the best poker players in the world and a staple in the "Big Game" at the Bellagio. It's unfortunate that he died at the age of 56 but from what I've read he lived his life to the fullest. He died of pneumonia in his sleep and his funeral services are tomorrow (Friday). Also, R.I.P. to Pimp C of UGK.



In other news, today I bought the url to http://www.crookedstraight.com/ . I plan to launch the site early next year (damn that's only in a month). Hopefully with the help of some friends the site will be full of good stuff for people like me -- sports stuff, shoe stuff, music stuff, comical club reviews, poker stuff, girls (not sure to what extent) and of course the blog. There will also be other blogs on the site. It will be interesting to see how it goes. If anyone wants to contribute (if you have any ideas or want to write), let me know.

Supposedly tonight I am playing with Daniel Negreanu and John Juanda. I'm not going to get too excited about it until it actually happens. I'll report the details tomorrow.

Peace!
