 The first one's always free. -'Soapy' Smith
[This is a work of poker fiction set ten thousand hands in the future. Any resemblance to persons living or dead is coincidental.]
Montgomery 'Soapy' Smith, the greatest of all nineteenth century con men, was the creator of what we now call three-card Monte. In the 1900's it was called Soapy's swindle. The game required a pitch man to talk up the game, an inside man to run the game, one or more outside men to pretend to play the game, and a foolish man, the victim of the game.
The rules of Soapy's swindle have remained unchanged for over a hundred years. The pitch man talks the foolish man into watching the game. The inside man shuffles up and deals out three cards facedown before revealing the middle or money card to the crowd. The three cards, once again face-down cards, are quickly and confusingly rearranged.
The outside men, shills posing as players, bet even money on which of th... Continue reading The Poker Swindle
 Lewis Black, best known for his regular segment 'Back in Black' on Comedy Central's 'The Daily Show with Jon Stewart,' will perform his hilarious stand-up comedy for the first time inside the Danny Gans Theatre at The Mirage August 30 at 10 p.m. and August 31 at 9 p.m.

In the late 80s Black left ... Continue reading Entertainment Report

 UltimateBet has its hands full and some explaining to do, as does former UB owner and 1994 World Series of Poker main event champion Russ Hamilton.
The UB scandal officially began in January of 2008 when the site's management acknowledged that there was some credence to players' claims of cheating. But by July 2008, after the official investigation had been ongoing for at least four months, UB confirmed that the cheating actually began in January of 2005, meaning that it could have been going on for nearly three years. In the fourth month of the investigation, new accounts were still being linked to the software glitch that allowed one or more super-users to cheat on the site.
Enter the biggest glitch of all, courtesy of Nat Arem, the rogue investigator/poker player who was a key figure in breaking the Absolute Poker scandal wide open. That glitch's name is Russ Hamilton.
Arem took some information he was given and began researching confirm... Continue reading Russ Hamilton Connection in UB Scandal?

I received a barrage of emails and phone calls about the recently televised ESPN $50,000 H.O.R.S.E Tournament in which there was a lot of controversy over the actions of Scotty Nguyen and the reactions of....
 The majority of the World Series may be over, but before the final table of the main event even gets underway, there is the small matter of the WSOP-E to contend with. Last year was the inaugural year for the WSOP in Europe and this year they've added a fourth bracelet event to the schedule, which takes place at the Empire Casino in London's Leicester Square this September.
Just as there was in 2007, there will be a ÂŁ2,500 HORSE, a ÂŁ5,000 Omaha and a ÂŁ10,000 no-limit hold 'em main event, but they have also added a ÂŁ1,500 no-limit hold 'em tournament to the schedule. This will certainly appeal to many of the local players, who may have found last year's offerings a bit out of their usual price range.
This year at the WSOP in Las Vegas, European players bucked the usual trend and picked up a quarter of the bracelets on offer, so perhaps this year in London it will be North America's turn to take down an overseas victory. Last year all three bracelets in Lond... Continue reading WSOP-Next Stop London!
