G'day BC, (If i can call you BC?),
LOVE the podcasts you have done.
Really informative and at times super indepth, giving angles on issues that I have never thought of.
Your knowledge of poker, the industry and past and present trends really comes out in the podcasts.
I guess they are a time consuming thing to do and take quite some preperation and scheduling with your guest's.
I really appreciate them and enjoy them.
Peace

Ok, I am going to try and get some actual traffic going to my blog. I'll start by posting some of my favouritest videos ever

^^^^ This gets me every time. Why didn't they let him play sooner?

Anyone who has bought my first book, The Mental Game of Poker, we are now half way through writing the sequel. If anyone has any questions on that, ask away.

Hi, good news!

But:
Term "Fish" ???
Why do you insult the people wich playing for fun in poker?

Not that I speak for Barry but I don't imagine it's intended as an insult. It's just the widely-accepted term (not just in poker) for a "newb". It's also easier to type than "recreational player"

Yes

But this is one fo the most "stupid" aspects in poker recreational players should be respected and im sure within PS someone is intelligent to come up with a name short and fun but not insultive + instruct theyr trainers to do the same u should lead on this 1

Nice vids ♦

It's a good job Pokerstrategy don't promote the use of the term 'fish'.

I'm going for Greg Merson tonight. The most proven player left in the field, has a solid stack in third place, and is on a heater.

Plus as our interview with him revealed, he hasn't overprepared for the final table like some players have, he is going in there with the game that got him there.

Myself and Jared Tendler wrote a piece about this last week, about how the Octo-Nine have been preparing.

In non-poker news.

Who watches Walking Dead? My favourite show by miles at the moment.

That Derren Brown zombie clip is epic that guy have you read his books? Or seen his newest thing, Apocalypse?

Love his book, and Acpocalyspe was amazing.

I saw him live a few years ago, also amazing.

He pretty much is one of my top 3 entertainers of all time

My wife got me tickets for my birthday but i was ill ♠_frown: will def try and get to his next tour though

He did the thing where he throws balls into the crowd and someone who catches it gets a reading.

The girl next to me got the reading, he was perfect as always, then when she came back I overheard her talk to her friends and she couldn't believe it - proved to me he doesn't use plants.

His memory tricks in his book I still use to this day.
