Let me start out by welcoming Michele Lewis to the Pokerati crew. She'll be a nice addition to the mayhem over there posting under the moniker Fresh Princess. She's been writing about her LAPC run. Michele Lewis is also a contributor to a new book called Women's Poker Night written by Maryann Morrison. Check it out.

The NBA All-Star Game Weekend is in full swing in Las Vegas. Flipchip has been all around Sin City snapping up random photos. Stop by and check out his photos on the Las Vegas Blog and the Poker Prof's Poker Blog.

If you don't know, I'm a frequent contributor and business partner at LasVegasVegas.com. We currently have three different blogs; Las Vegas Blog (Vegas Entertainment & News), Poker Prof's Poker Blog, and the Las Vegas Business and Politics Blog.
