Chip Reese Dead At Age 56
David “Chip� Reese, born in Dayton Ohio in 1951, is dead. Widely regarded as one of the best poker players in the world and the youngest player inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame, he died in his sleep last night, reportedly of complications due to pneumonia.Reese won three World Series of Poker Bracelets, including the inaugural $50,000 buy-in HORSE event at the 2006 World Series of Poker.

On his way out to California in 1974 Reese stopped off in Las Vegas to play poker. After winning $60,000 he decided to skip law school and play poker for a living, and when asked about his decision, he uttered the now immortal line, “Law doesn't have the same monetary incentive as poker."R.I.P.

A (Belated) Thought Of Thanksgiving
This is belated, to be sure, but I awakened this morning thinking about Thanksgiving and all the things, big and small, that I’m thankful for. One thing I tend to take for granted, but really shouldn’t, is the weather. And if the price is a lot of snowbirds who clog the roads in the Coachella Valley every winter, it’s a small price to pay.Yesterday we had 16 people—family, friends, and neighbors—for Thanksgiving dinner, and because we live in a warm climate, we were able to eat outdoors. It was a gorgeous day, and I wore shorts and was barefoot—we’re not really formal at my house—and thought how fortunate I was to live where I do, and not have to suffer real winters unless I choose to go to the snow.I’m also thankful that my commute to work is no further than a jaunt to a home office, or a trip to a nearby cardroom.All the cycling magazines that find their way to my door are filled with articles this time of year about maintaining fitness by cycling indoors on a trainer or on rollers, because the weather is too harsh in most places for all but the most dedicated to want to ride on the roads. But not here. If I ride mid-day, I can usually get by in a short-sleeved cycling jersey and shorts. If I decide to ride early, when it’s a lot colder, all I need do is add arm and leg warmers and maybe a vest over my jersey and I’m good to go.The sun is shining here as it usually does. The temperature is in the low 70s, and I’m stuffed full of turkey and all the fixings. And for all of this, I’m thankful.

The Antiguans plan to do this in private meetings with members of America’s Congress.They will also invite US lawmakers to tour the Antigua’s Financial Services Regulatory Commission and some Internet gaming companies to show their visitors that his nation has the capacity to adequately regulate gaming operations.The US Congress barred American banks and credit card companies from processing online gambling payments last year when it passed the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA), which denied access to the American market. As a result, Antigua, has sought $3.4 billion in trade sanctions.
