Happy Mother's Day. It's Monday night, so if you haven't called your mom... you're in deep shit.
Anyway... here's a few things I read over the weekend and I thought you might be interested in, and here's a few nuggets from today's news cycle...
UB Cheating Scandal: First of all, congrats to Haley for a book deal! I'm thrilled she's finally going to get paid for her diligent and relentless investigative reporting into the UB cheating scandal. She did all of that OUT OF POCKET after she got fired from Poker News. While thousands of players bitch and moaned about UB in forums, Haley rolled up her sleeves dug through shit pile after shit pile to unearth small nuggets of truth and fragments of evidence of a massive cover up, scandal, and flat out fraud. By the way, here's an index of her Just Conjecturin' series. And don't forget to read her latest installment Volume 35: Norwegian Exposure. (Haley's Poker Blog)That's it. You know the drill. NGTFOOMO!
