Hey all, Jay “whojedi” Newnum here. I will be your eyes and ears as Alex attempts to defend his title at the U.S. Poker Championship at the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City. Sorry for the delay, but we had some internet issues here at the technically advance Taj facitilites.

Play is just underway with 90 minutes levels and the blinds starting at $25-$50. All players start with $30,000 in tournament chips.

Also, I wanted to say thanks to VeeRob for helping a brother out getting this all set-up.
