I played a bit of ring on Full Tilt.  I hadn’t been playing much there but I dropped in for a session. Then Black Friday hit.  TonyG tweeted that the principles there are liquidating personal assets to try to get the payout. Howard has his house on the market.

Mine Salting

You know the deal.  They make something look better than it is.  In a mine that’d revolve around firing silver and gold into barren walls.   At the WSOP, it those freerollers who are expecting lightning in a bottle — twice.    For those with limited writing skills, it is your moment to be fired from the cannon.
