Im taking a job with cardplayer starting in April. To be quite honest I hope both survive and push each other to improve their respective products.

Did you get the job through Craigslist?

Btw, maybe I missed it but I don't think anyone has mentioned the anonymous comment someone from CardPlayer, allegedly, posted over at ThePokerBiz.com, ridiculing the Bluff deal and calling the WSOP mediocre at best.

Here's what it said in its entirety:

“Awarded?” Buying an overpriced package from the cash hungry WSOP is hardly a coup. More realistically the folks at Bluff have bitten off more than they can chew. Would not be surprised if the fees bankrupt them. Bluff is mediocre at best, as is the WSOP, and the whole thing looks like an impending slow motion train wreck.”

I'd call it sophomoric (and poetic at times) but that's like my ass telling my feet they smell. So I'll let someone else call it out for what it is.

I should point out that we have a page or two in Bluff each month that they pay us mad money for, if mad money meant free chicken and beer, and that yes I hope both survive as competition is good and CardPlayer does have some quality people over there. I would also say that with online forums, blogs, videos, etc., magazines these days are really only good for reading on airplanes or on the crapper and ironically those are pretty much the two places we get our pages done for Bluff.
