Max, Max, Max – what kind of glasses are you seeing things through? Elton John’s? You look like a businessman and I am sure you wish you were! All i can say just like I said in my other video to you is that you have heart but now I am going to make the plank a little longer for you. I am even bringing James Dempsey with me, your friend from the Premier League Mixed Game Championship – the guy who you said couldn’t play poker but then went on to win the WPT Five Diamond in Vegas. Please try not to tilt as easy as your fellow countrymen.

For the first time, poker’s elite compete in three different disciplines of poker to find the most complete poker champion.

I’m back in France again after a short rest in England after playing at the Euro Finals of Poker in Paris. In my last blog I told you about the small cash I had in the 1k event. Over the next couple of days, I played their 2k event but frustratingly busted in 25th place (with only 20 getting paid).

The Premier League is back! And it’s expanded with a new creation of the Mixed Game Championship. Watch as poker’s top players battle it out in three different card games in the search to find the complete poker player. With names like Tony G, Luke Schwartz, Jennifer Tilly, Max Pescatori, James Dempsey and November Niner Matt Giannetti tonight’s no limit hold’em match will be one to remember!

What does our good friend Tony G like to get up to when he’s not at the felt? Play Twister with a couple of Pandas of course!
