http://www.pokerroad...news.php?id=582I dont play tournaments very often but am very excited about this. Pokerroad will most likely score another hit. Having 2 great poker minds with different philosophies and styles along with a great host should make for a great show.

That actually looks pretty interesting.

This should straight out ROCK BALLS!!!But how will people react to Z-Justin....given, you know, the angle shooting (putting it kindly).

Meh. People need to forgive him. He only did it the once and he had alot of money taken away from him and imo hes been a great poker ambassador since. From all the interviews Ive heard/seen him in hes seemed like a very good guy and player. I really dont want this to start into a ZeeJustin ethics hijack though.

I'll agree he has changed his stripes...however..."only did it once" is more like he only got caught once.

Yeah thats not right what I wrote. I meant to say that he hasnt done it since, which he could be lying about, but I believe him.

[JubilantLankyLad]

ZJ seems to be doing the right things since he got caught, and from a distance, appears remorseful and to be trying to rebuild his reputation honourably. I'm not necessarily saying it's time to forgive him, but I'm willing to give him a chance. And besides, I'd definitely like more strategy podcasts and he should be a good candidate to speak intelligently about the game.

Nice, I might actually listen to this one.

We certainly debated this internally. I think Justin has gotten punished appropriately for the crime he committed. If he marked cards or used info from one of his hands to help him play another hand or had been able to see other people's hole cards, we would not have used him. His crime was entering tournaments multiple times to give him extra chances to win money. (Not to excuse this, but I have not yet met a player whose girlfriend plays the tourneys who didn't admit that he has taken over her account if she made it deep in an online tourney where he had played and had gotten knocked out. This is pretty much the same poker crime.) Multiple entries is clearly illegal, but I consider this a poker felony from which he has been rehabilitated. In some sense this strategy program allows him to have a retribution phase in his rehabilitation, since he will be giving back to the poker community.We could not come up with anyone better who could balance Daniel's feel arguments and stand up to Daniel in a poker debate.Barry

No one can replace Haralobos. No one else, including myself, would never openly criticize people by name on the air the way that he does. We take what we can get with him. When we start making money, we will get our own recording studio. He assured me if it was close to where he lives, he will gladly maintain the schedule we want.Barry

Pokerroad still isnt profitable? You guys seemed to pick up alot of sponsors over the world series and I thought that would have put you over the top.

[Moneyball16]
