Ignatius of Guinness and Poker AKA Party Poker Blogs is making that great leap to professional poker playing. He’s been playing poker at B&Ms and online for years and years, and he’s finally going for it:

This is truly crazy stuff. Hell, I might get bored in a month and end up taking another job, who knows? I’ve discussed this ad naeseum with the wife and a few others and it all comes back to the same thing: I’m open to the Possibilities. I’m now recalling the classic dialogue from the movie Risky Business:

Miles: Joel, you wanna know something? Every now and then say, “What the fuck.” “What the fuck” gives you freedom. Freedom brings opportunity. Opportunity makes your future.

Who am I to argue with 80’s cinema, much less Booger, Curtis Armstrong?

K, enough about me for now.

What the fuck indeed.

Iggy also reports that Mr. Wil Wheaton will be joining us in the Poker Blogger Tournament. There are now 49 players registered. It’s sure to reach 51 before the day is out. You have two days left to join in the fun.
