Hold 'Em Radio Weekend

Hello all,


Well, a week in Vegas was well spent. Hope you all heard the weekend live tournaments on Hold 'Em Radio (www.holdemradio.com) as there was some great play that went on there. It was truly a pleasure to meet all of the listeners that we have and, yes, take their chips in person rather than online! Yours truly went very deep, but not quite deep enough, on the Saturday tournament (finishing 13th) and, on Sunday, I was the table announcer for the final table. Congratulations to July2 and RCGott for taking down those places!


As far as my own play other than the HER events, I did OK. My cash game vibe seemed to be running well and I was up on those games, but the tournaments just seemed to escape my grasp. That's the way it works, though...in the train of tournaments, if you can cash in half of them, you're making something.


Hold 'Em Radio has been down for the past week, which is unfortunate after such a great weekend as we had. It seems the site was hacked on Friday and, after delaying as much as possible, was taken down for a rebuild. As of this morning, the stream for the site is running and we will be back on the air come Friday night.


Now comes the time when I call on the readers of this blog. Last year, I spent the entirety of the WSOP for PokerNews, who now seems to think that I can sit in Austin and give you the same coverage that I gave last year. I encourage you to bombard the PokerNews site and ask "Where is Earl Burton?". Perhaps they may get the message.


Until later...
