Feel free to pass it on to other mid-stake guys who maybe couldn't make the move abroad and are looking at options. I had a blog similar to it on TL, but it...

The only intent here is to give some insight into my intent as Hero Poker's CEO. It is more of a personal story than anything else, so please just take it for what it is. “Being the CEO” First off, the irony of the title of 'CEO' do...

EXISTING PROMOTIONAL UPDATES Triumvirate Hero $100 Daily – US & CANADA ONLY “To the victor goes the spoils” The point of this tournament is that it is only top 3 that pay out and this will not change. It is a daily shot of getting back in the game. Not for the feeble hearted. -Triumvirate Hero $100 Daily has been modified to include Canada -Blinds have been reduced to 8min...

Before we decided to start our real marketing, as a company we decided to do a something for US poker players who just wanted some cash. So we put up 15k in a kind of private freeroll with no withdraw restrictions and tried to get out there to ‘regs’ who simply stoppe...

Even with all the craziness that has been the last two weeks, Stars is still the best poker company out there hands down. If there was any doubt, just look at the fact that Stars is doing the US cash outs and they even brought up the issue of the FPPs with the DOJ. Truth be told, I was concerned...

Am still working between contractions will keep you updated later Cheers. Dave 553 am update Lol the contractions are like going away but when they come they are uber strong. I think this is going to be a long labour. The contractions are now 20 mins apart n...

The network that Hero is on, Merge, has now become the top 10 site in the world for player liquidity and probably within 2 months will be in the top 5.

Robert F. Kennedy So as of now, I've stopped posting at P5s. Not because they weren't such a great site/community, its just that they are very US facing and I really didn't know what I should be doing with them as they have a lot of partner sites. But of course, I think I'm more comfortable here at LP. It took me a...

We live about 40 mins outside of Seoul, but our hospital is in Seoul because I wanted my second son to be born at the same hospital cause it was very good, but I was expectin...

I hate flying. Coincidentally, there are two full tilt pros here playing in the big cash game at Galaxy Starworld, Tom was here about a month ago, but right now there is just Joh...

When I asked my sponsored pros to come on, I didn't give them a minimum requirement to play on the site because I knew that a lot of their income was derived from playing on the major sites and I was more than fine with that. The reason being was that, while...

I wanted to update this blog sooner, but the feedback from LP.net as well as from another community site and my two months in the rakeback market wilderness has truly 'enlightened' me. In the last couple of months since launching Hero Poker, I feel that my path to 'poker start-up' enl...

Now at an educated site like LP, everyone knows what a rake race is and I would think that all grinders want one. SKIN=RAKEBACK=RAKERACE=RIGHT? So as a skin, it's obvious that I should follow suit and do a rake race right? It would be naive not to, but I didn't want to do...

Late registration was for an hour, so I was still helping stragglers get into the tournament and I had opened about 6 random tables to follow the action. In about 30 mins about half the field w...

[img]http://www.jdmfilmreviews.com/images/300-dvd.jpg[/img] As a CEO of a new poker site, HeroPoker.com, the most obvious difference between other sites is our VIP system. Coming from a PC gaming industry background, I'm really familiar with leveling systems and I understand what is appealing about them. Of course every site's VIP reward's system is very important and...

At the Grand Lisboa, you have the PokerStars Macau room, so they have a regional event every other month or so; you'll find that there are lot of lower limit entry level tables ther...

Over the past 4 years, I could say that myself and one other key person were directly responsible for much of the growth of poker in Asia. Now that quite the statement I know, but it is true and will likely stand as one of ...
