As I wrote at the beginning of the year, I've decided to "spice up" my Featured Game responsibilities for Casino City.

Poker Player Tweets of the Week: Lame comparisons edition

24 January 2014
Wow, it's been a while since I've written a Poker Player Tweets of the Week column! My last piece came on Dec. 13, or a whopping six weeks ago. Where have I been? Or a better question: Does anyone care? I'll preserve the multitude of excuses I could make for not having written one of these since before ... (read more)
 

Top-10 poker players to follow on Twitter

13 January 2014
Since joining Casino City this past August, one of my jobs has been to write a weekly " Poker Player Tweets of the Week " column. I've spent a lot of time on Twitter following poker players and their daily musings. Some of it is highly entertaining. Other times, the players are just as mundane as the rest of us. ...

Analyzing a winning NFL season

2 January 2014
Betting on sports is really, really hard. Beating the vig at a sportsbook over a large sample is nearly impossible. Each week on the Casino City Gang podcast, the editorial staff makes picks against the spread for every single NFL game, betting a fictional $10 per game. (There are 256 games; we bet on the 249 that bet365 Sportsbook & Racebook had on its books at the time of our picks). ... (read more)
 

Spicing up my Featured Game duties

31 December 2013
One of my duties as Associate Editor at Casino City is to write weekly reviews of online slot machines, which appear in our Online Casino City Times and Casino City Times newsletters.

Poker Player Tweets of the Week: How to view your losses

13 December 2013
Nothing puts a damper on the holiday season more than a "Friday the 13th." Today's the day. I'm not a superstitious guy, but of course many people in the gambling world are. So today is a bit of a holiday itself, depending on which way you look at it. But let's ignore the hoax that is Friday the 13th ... (read more)

10 December 2013
The potential for federal online gambling legislation was the topic of an in-depth discussion in a House subcommittee meeting on Tuesday, but no clear vote or determination was made on the issue.

Poker Player Tweets of the Week: Glasses half full

6 December 2013
It's been two weeks since my last "Poker Player Tweets of the Week" column. Did you miss me? I thought so. Anyway, I have a couple of good excuses. For my international readers (I may be making a big leap using "reader" as a plural), last Thursday was Thanksgiving, the most glutinous of all the face-stuffing American holidays. ... (read more)
 

Ups and downs of New Jersey online gambling

2 December 2013
Thanksgiving was special for me this year, and not just because it was the first time that Thanksgiving and the first day of Hanukah were on the exact same day (and it won't happen again for another 70,000 years). What made it truly special is online gaming returned to New Jersey last week. So I made my annual November trek to my parents' home in Haddonfield, N.J. ... (read more)
 

Poker Player Tweets of the Week: Sheldon Adelson is evil

22 November 2013
In April, online poker launched in Nevada. Halloween marked the beginning of online gambling in Delaware. And on Tuesday, nine casino websites will go live in New Jersey. Americans want online gambling. But Las Vegas Sands CEO Sheldon Adelson, afraid of the business the iGaming industry could take from his land-based casinos, is staunchly staunchly against the movement. ... (read more)
