Re: Pokerstars World Blogger Championship of Online Poker 2007 Was a bit phased by the requirements to post a banner on my blog but the instructions are extremely easy to follow. Also like the way they show you the end product banner so you can choose which one to have...shouldn't we have the same thing on here, with several choices of PL banner and a preview of what they would look like? I've got a scrawny little PL banner on my blog and would really like a much bigger one (oh, for God's sake...a bigger banner!)

Re: Pokerstars World Blogger Championship of Online Poker 2007 Struggling 162nd out of 188 left. Notice Lousaban sitting pretty across the table with nice stack...erm with lots of chips I mean. Turned chat off 'cos I got sick of some observers earlier on booing when the player they were chatting to lost chips. Good luck anybody else still in.
