A Great Time was had by all at the PPP - Irish Winter Festival!

Why is it that good times go by so fast? Sometimes I wish I could hit the pause button so to ensure that I take in all the fun and excitement of an event. Times such as the (just finished) Paddy Power Poker Irish Winter Festival were absolutely amazing!

There was song, music, plenty of laughter, and poker talent galore; along with a wealth of personality to go with it! Indeed it was one of those times that I was looking for the pause button.

With almost every European country represented – it was no wonder people came from far and wide to take part in the festivities, so congrats to all who made it the success that it was.

I would also like to extend a congratulatory note to the PPP staff for keeping the ship a float – ya did well – fair play! To Eric, Noel, Paul, Ross, Mike, Evan, and many others who played their part away from the felt – Take a bow my friends, you deserve it!

Anyway, a lot to catch up on … so what I'm going to do is up date you with three different postings here on the blog over the next couple of weeks. How does that sound? Good!

By the way, did I mention that I played in four different bounty tournaments on the site last week? I'll tell ya now – they were an absolute blast! I was really surprised too with the level of play – it was very solid. Also the questions, and particularly the comments cracked me up – very amusing indeed are some of the PPP players! I'll be looking forward to the next one, that's for sure! Remember too, if any of you have some questions, feel free to do so at the end of each posting in the comment section.

So, be sure to check back for the next up date. I'll be letting you know how day one at the IWF went and how my day two ended very abruptly.

Talk soon!
