We love geek-readers (and listeners) that really get into our silly shizznit. Trevor in Carrollton, for example, may not have use for the Oliver Tse ringtone or even the Amy Calistri … but he has put together a ringtone featuring the theme song from Beyond the Table* and sends it along for your downloadable enjoyment:

Awesome. Now Karridy, Tom, SitNGo Steve and I will be alerted when we get calls that should be instantly sent to voicemail/”ignored”!
*Song is called “Along for the Ride” by Mink Rebellion.

LAS VEGAS–This post woulda been much more timely and sensible had it appeared a week ago, but hey, sometimes what happens in Vegas takes a little while before it becomes public.

Actually, large-scale LCD screens were sprinkled throughout the hallways and the Amazon itself, so we could watch the overhead cam pretty much anywhere we went. We just couldn’t camp out for more than a few minutes near the real action. But that was fine by me, because we’ll all get to see The Jerry Yang Show soon enough on TV, and the World Series really is about so much more than just poker. As it turned out, there was lots of fun stuff going on away from the table that provided a little insight into how the poker industry really works …
