DUBLIN BELLYBUSTERS

Ok, so yes there has been a bit of a break since my last post. But you see, I was meant to be moving on to bigger things. Full Tilt Poker commissioned me to write an article for them last month and the very day it was due to go up, BANG, the site is brandishing FBI stickers, having been indicted that very day by the Department of Justice.

It was a nice little piece on the 'Cultural Differences Between Poker in Europe and North America', 800 words of pithy observations and jingoistic abuse that will now be reconciled to my desk drawer to join my TV Series scripts, feature film script and countless other unloved, discarded shreds of dead rainforest that have yet to make the light of day.

Fingers crossed, Full Tilt will find a use for me in the coming months. As my friend Michael Craig pointed out, my value to them should, in theory, have gone up now that the US is no longer a viable market. If they do, I will at least be able to add one more 'difference' to my list.
