Standing Down

Sadly… this will probably be the last time we see Charlie in his 300 gear. I doubt I will ever get the response I desire so consider this my last comment on the issue.

Jennifer Harman Charity Event

Ryan and I will be in Vegas the 17th through the 19th and will be attending the Jennifer Harman Charity Event. This is all being done to beneift the Nevada SPCA - a no kill animal shelter. All the pros are coming out for this one too! Check out this press release for details. There will be a silent and live auction followed by a $330 rebuy no-limit holdem tournament. LaB is working on 2 original artworks that will be auctioned off and 100 percent of the proceeds will be donated. We will also be selling colored limited edition prints (100 total) at the event.

If you are in Vegas and will be near the Venetian on Friday the 18th around 2pm.. Come join us for some fun and a good cause.

I was there last year and had one helluva time. I was doing really well too until I donked off my stack trying to bluff with J3, just so I could have a story to tell. I just didn’t think it would be THAT story I told.

Watch the blog over the next few days for more information.

Livin’ on Poker Road - Spin Off

Sky's The Limit

Ryan and I are doing a new strip over on Poker Road and will be gradually increasing our updates to twice a week. We are looking to do this after we get back from the Jennifer Harman event. Probably starting May 1st.

This spinoff is called “Sky’s the Limit” and I don’t think anything like this has been done before in webcomics. If it has.. not very often.. and not quite like this. Skylar will be hosting a late night talk show. (ie. couch/desk format.) During each “show” we will be interviewing a real poker pro/celeb. These interviews are being conducted by myself, Ryan & Matt Waldron via email, phone, or in person. We will try and fit as many questions we can in the 6-8 panels we are trying to stick to. We will then take the questions and convert the interview into a comic strip.

We already have a slew of pros lined up and our first guest will be “Kid Poker” Daniel Negreanu.

Check out the most recent LoPR over on Poker Road to catch up on the current storyline.
