The European Union is unhappy with the recent decision by the German government to legislate against online poker. The EU is planning legal action against the Germany on the grounds of it being against cross border competition laws and should be good news for German online poker players.

Huge crowds formed to watch the fire and traffic on the Las Vegas Strip was gridlocked as the fire on the roof of the 32-story casino & hotel sent flaming debris raining down and charred part of the “Monte Carlo” sign. Authorities said 17 people suffered minor injuries in the blaze, which firefighters got under control in about an hour.

I haven’t had much chance to play this week as I have been at a poker convention. The conference was great fun and really good to meet up with alot of the poker room’s but I’m now quite sleep deprived. Anyway we should have some new reviews on 4kingpoker with more great poker bonuses and I’ve also arranged for some more suprise tournaments for members too.

Scrawnybob’s Minimum Deposit Poker Challenge

I’ve increased my bankroll a bit at Pacific Poker up to $45.65 and at Titan Poker up to $11.65 which is steady but progress. However I took a bit of a beating at Bodog with KK getting crushed and getting a bit tilty after that I think I’m now down to $25.76 which isn’t great but it was never going to be an upward straight line building my bankroll.

The aim is to get each of the bankroll’s up to $200 each, which I think should be possible within around 60 hours play, so given that I’m playing with proper bankroll’s at other sites I will probably be playing an hour or two a week so this gives me until the end of the year fingers crossed.
