Hi. PokerStars is holding a freeroll for bloggers with a $10,000 seat as first prize. It is not entirely free, as the price is posting a flashy thing on my website for a few days. The tournament is over and I am grateful to PokerStra for having run it, but I am cancelling the logo.

Aside from that, I have had a PokerStars account for a long time, even though I mostly play at Party when I play on-line. I love Stars’ NL heads-up SnGs, and I play them for parctice in case I ever make a final table . OK, I just enjoy them, and I happen to have an excellent record playing the 100 and $200 buy-ins.

Many of my friends work for PokerStars, and they are a classy and quality organization. So wish me luck as I try to freeroll my way to millions.

I also want to say how proud I am of the forum, and how grateful I am to the 80 of you who have registered and are sharing questions and answers. There are dozens of these forums on the web, several huge ones and others by other CP columnists and other poker luminaries. I feel great that you have chosen to spend some of your time here. I hope you find it worthwhile. If you have any suggestions to make it better, please let me know.

Some of you have been asking about the whereabouts of the 2005 World Poker Player’s Conference DVD, during whichI did my seminar about the skills required to make one big bet per hour and the general order in which people acquire them. Apparantly they have had significant production problems, and are still trying to put out something. I am beginning to doubt we will ever see anything (watch, as soon as I post this, they will announce the DVD), but if does become available in some form, I will post it here.
