About the players:

Jerry "The Pro" Blackman - Simply put, an amazingly good player. He's come up with his own "10 Rules of Poker" that never fail him. His book will hit the store shelves sometime within the next 100 years. In the meantime he'll start tweeting so make sure you're following this rising poker star. Also check out his article Hand of the Week! with Jerry on our message board. Where Jerry will give a play by play account of the most memorable hand that week!

Ovidiu "The Vampire" Stoica - Hails from the mountains of Romania, this dog and poker enthusiast has been trying to figure out how to combine his two passions. We don't allow dogs at the table, but this shark will call your bluffs till the river. So you better have the goods.


Mike "Choke Hold" C. - Famous for his classic Hollywoods, you'll be sure you have a read when you call his value bets thinking they're bluffs. An exchange trader by day, poker hero by night.

"Iraq" Dan - He's served our country in Iraq and seen the violence of war. He brings this aggression to the poker table and you won't be able to tell where he's at at any point in a hand. His guerilla tactics let him backdoor the nuts every time.

Dan "Freshman" Freshman - The most passionate about the game- he'll play his ABC poker till he's the big stack so be sure to break out the XYZ poker when going up against him. Nothing quite as satisfying as sucking out on this semi -pro.

"I was on Fringe" Jake - Remember that episode where a hand comes out of the computer and kills the guy? Well, he's our very own Jake! Don't be fooled however, he might've been drawing dead on t.v., but his acting skills translate in a brutal way at the poker table.

Matt "Cake Smasher" Wittman -Entrepreneur and recreational player- "cake smasher" is a ruthless adversary and comic genius. Once this juggernaut gets rolling, there is no stopping big stack Matt.

Gilda "I'm not the only girl" D. - It's true! We have had the company of many female players here, and they never cease to impress. She might look cute and harmless, but this young lady is super aggressive and not afraid to send you home wearing only a cardboard box.

Nic (olo) Deperro - Easily the most disciplined and patient player at the table. Don't try to get him on tilt, its not going to work. Nic loves poker so much, he tattooed the suits on his arms, (or is that just to help remind him how to complete his flushes?)

Austin "I'm married and can barely play anymore" L. - Well that about sums it up. We miss you buddy, come back to us.

"All in" Alan - Extremely aggressive, Alan's stack is probably the deepest usually buying in for over half the chips in play. This fearless player isn't afraid to push his 72o for all his chips just to see the look on your face when he shows you the bluff.
