Poker After Dark New Season Monday


Article from Bluff Magazine: Proving that poker on television is anything but dead, NBC’s Poker After Dark returns for a fifth season beginning Monday night with “Close But No Cigar” week. Each of the six players in this week’s episode has made the final table of the World Series of Poker Main Event but come up short in their pursuit of the game’s most storied title.

Andy Black, Lee Watkinson, Dewey Tomko, David Williams, Allen Cunningham, and Mike Matusow all put up $20,000 to chase the winner take all prize of $120,000. Three of the players, Black, Watkinson and Tomko are all making their PAD debut while the other three players have a mixed record.

Williams has one win in three appearances, Cunningham has a single win in two appearances and Matusow will be looking for his first win after going away empty-handed in his first 10 times on the show.

The match will begin airing on NBC Monday at 2:05 AM and will continue for five consecutive nights in the same time slot. A special program called the “Director’s Cut” will air late night Saturday at 1 AM, right after Saturday Night Live.

Poker on Xmas

With no games at Johnny Joe's tonight (12/25) I am getting asked where there is a game tonight, rumor has it that Flop the Nutz is still hosting at Your Place on Progress Avenue at 8 p.m., however, I couldn't find anywhere on the internet to confirm that...

Holiday Schedule at Johnny Joe's

As of right now, there will be no poker at Johnny Joe's on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day or New Years Eve.... However we our trying to effort Hany into letting us play on xmas eve... since at least two dozen folks wanted too...

I know this is late notice, and the people that this effects don't read this blog, hell, more people hit this blog from the UK than here in central PA... but...

Al "Alfonzo" is making and bringing in ten pounds of peel and eat shrimp with lots of Old Bay and everyone is invited to bring a dish, i guess this is our poker "dysfunctional" family xmas party!

see you guys tonight and for the love that is the all holy nut flush, please, at least tonight, stop chasing draws (and draws i mean needing runner-runner to complete said flush) and for the sake of the holidays, stop playing like a complete and utter donkey! ;)
