I will be doing two radio shows and a charity seminar in May. The first show, with Al Spath and Konana Luce,. will be on Roundersradio.com May 12 starting at 6:30 PM eastern. The second will be on May 15 at 8:00 PM eastern with David Apostolico, also on Roundersradio.com. Both will available for podcast a couple of days later.

On May 23, I will doing a charity seminar In Nashville Tenn with high stakes player Terri Evanowski. This event, with registration starting a 5:30 PM and dinner served at 6:30 PM. It will be at the Hampton Inn an downtown and will include a dinner catered by Valentino’s Restaurant. Complementary soft drinks will be served by the Tennessee Titans Cheerleaders. In addition, a poker event will held with the opportunity to win a $10,00 seat to the World Series of Poker Main Event and Round Trip Airfare. The cost of the evening is a tax deductible $500 donation to the Leukemia and Lymphoma society, and you can get more details from .

Holdemradio.com is, at least temporarily, out of business. The owner has run out of money, and the site is closed. Thus, all of the podcasts and other previous broadcasts are no longer available. This is really a bad beat, as I listened to some, but never downloaded any (I still live in the dark ages of the internet). If anyone has any of these recorded (like the ones I did, or co-hosted with Dr. Al), please let me know. I would like to have them.

On a somewhat more positive note, Dr. Schoonmaker, whose show I have been co-hosting, has agreed to move his show to roundersradio.com. This outfit has more listeners, and should be able to offer a better product. As Dr. Al is writing yet ANOTHER book (the man is a machine), we probably will not be doing the show on a regular basis until after May 1. We may tape a few sporadically between now and then, and these will be announced, here as are all of our shows, on my forum.

Thank you to those who listened to us, and I hope you enjoy the product in the new venue.

OK, nothing to do with poker, but I wanted to share this moment. I am having dinner with a bunch of professional gamblers, mostly sports bettors. This was Thursday, Jan 3, so inevitably, the conversation turns to the Iowa caususes.

“Does anyone know how the caucuses turned out?”

“O’Bama won by 9.”

‘Oh, how did Huckabee do?”

“He covered.”

I will figure out a way to make an ad soon, so this will stay on the front page. Maybe even a form.

In the meantime, here is the story: If you want to purchase a custom-autographed (by me) copy of Advanced Limit Hold’em Strategy or Limit Hold’em: Winning Short-Handed Strategies, here’s how:

Send your name, address and phone number, the recipient’s name and address (if different), which book(s) you want, what you want me to write, and a check or money order to:

Barry Tanenbaum Books
P.O. Box 28783
Las Vegas, NV 89126

Price for one book: $24.95 plus $4.60 Priority Mail = $29.55
Price for two books: $24.95 x 2 pus $4.60 Priority Mail = $54.50

If you just want me to write something sort of standard, I can do that instead.

While I am willing to autograph the short-handed book, please remember I collaborated on that book but I was not the author. They live in Canada and are not available to me for autographs.

Thank you.
