Spots are filling up fast for the poker tournament this Thursday night in Las Vegas. Dr. David Klein has done a good job getting the word out, and there are some pretty big names in search playing. I’m not a big time poker player or anything, but it should be fun to hang out with them. Imagine the inbound links that winners will get…

He also has a really cool project going on with ceramic tiles at the bottom of this page.

    Wow, that is the first comment ever about the tiles. I wrote that really late one night, and didn’t think anyone would ever read it!

    Thanks so much for promoting the tournament so much. There are now more seats available than there were originally. It sold out and then we opened more seats up.

    I look forward to meeting you!

    You’re welcome, It’s for a great cause, AND it’s fun too –

    I admit, I’m intrigued by the tile idea – I assume you’ll be needing pearl tile affiliates? ;)

    Looking forward to meeting you too…

    Did you get to meet Craig of craigslist? He is one of two famous nerds worth meeting in my opinion. The other one lives in Seattle.

  • James from Craigslist says:

    I did meet Craig ;) and your description doesn’t really fit.

  • Scott says:

    PF – No, I did not meet Craig, but I heard his keynote, and frankly, was not all that impressed.

    He is not a particularly dynamic speaker, and while he may be brilliant, it did not shine through. Compared with other Pubcon keynotes, not even close…

    So, who won all the big buck$?

  • Scott says:

    Dan Perry won all the big bucks, and Jeremy Shoemaker came in second.

    Personally, I had the worst showing I’ve ever had in a poker tournament, and was out before the first break. all the details

    (That’s what I get for choosing to drink water at the Microsoft party before the tournament ;)

    So, how exactly did you do? What hand busted you out? Is Shoe a donk or what?
