from article: "Last year, US high roller Andrew Robl, who describes himself as a "professional" poker player under the moniker of Good2cu, took home a cool $US145,000 ($A169,000) by playing online."

yeah but how much did he lose in polish brothels?

But he says online players can still be manipulated as gambling becomes more "technified". Many serious online poker players use bots, which record information and statistics about their competitors - from their strategies to the bets they made over the last 10 hands.

I'm technified, yo.

Very cool article, definitely a nice plug and an ego boost (as If I needed one). Hopefully, all the Ship It Holla Balla's will be getting more press time as we will have a new website coming out within in the next few months (with much more content and participation)...

Oh and to all the haters:
