Of interest only to those WordPress bloggers who use it I’ve released an update for my Playing Card Smilies plug-in:

It’ll now work with v2.13 of WordPress. This also means that my blog is now working again instead of replacing the middle of innocent words with playing card images :) Enjoy!

Hello and welcome to my new blog, my name is Simon and through this page I hope to give you some insight into the world of poker through the eyes of a new player committed to improving his game and moving up through the levels.

So, who am I? Well as I mentioned I’m a relatively new poker player (only been playing since August) from Adelaide, Australia and am currently focusing on improving my no-limit Texas Hold’em game. I hope to be able, through this blog, to track my progress, share my successes and my mistakes, promote some of my favourite on-line poker resources and in general just have a bit of fun.

So thanks for stopping by, come join me as I share my poker experiences. Your mileage may vary.
