Q: Name your Top Ten list of poker blogs.
T: These are in no particular order and are not necessarily my favorite blogs, but lately they just seem to be the ones I navigate to first when I see there is a new post available. I’m pretty cyclical with this type of thing so next week it could be different. If you are not on the list, please don’t wimper. I have a shit ton of brogs I read and it was much harder to pin it down to 10 than I expected.

Something about Wes, the game he plays, and the way he writes works for me. His title makes me laugh everytime I read it.Go Be Rude

I’ve enjoyed reading DuggleBogey from day one of coming across his brog. He gets into your head and, whether you agree with him or not, makes you think a little more about certain situations. He also throws out a good poker comic. That can’t be easy to do consistantly.High On Poker

Jordan is the funniest brogger I know. He also happens to be one of my favorite peeps. He tells it like it is, always wants to have a good time, and is like a sponge when it comes to learning the game. I can’t wait to hang out with him more often cause he is good people.Guinness And Poker

I’ve yet to meet Iggy, but have spoken to him on numerous occasions. All I know is you only have to speak with him once before you realize how genuine this dude is. I could have 100 new brog posts to read, but if I see he has a new one, it moves to the top.Low Limit Grinder

I’m probably not still a poker brogger if it is not for Mr. GCox25. He is what is right about poker, brogging, and friendship. We clicked from day one and meeting him at Okie-Vegas was hawesome. If you don’t know or read GCox, I suggest getting your ass over to his brog posthaste.Mookie

Mookie is one dedicated mofo. You can tell he loves poker and loves bringing poker to the people. He runs the best brogger tourney in the business and does so on a weekly basis. I really, really wish I could play his home game.Waffles

Love’em or hate’em, he is what he is. I like reading his random ass posts. You never know what you’re gonna get. I’m interested to meet this dude someday.Iakaris

Reading Iak’s posts makes my brain hurt. Still, he is one interesting mofo. He, similar to Waffles, is near the top of my “need to meet” brogger list.AlCantHang

When I need a good laugh or a break from the norm, Al is always there to fill the void. Drinking with Sir Al at the Bash was hawesome. Al is a man of the broggers, for the broggers.Dragonystic

Misery loves Adam, and it usually makes for interesting brogging. He seems like a good guy who is just trying to make a decent living playing poker. I don’t think he has a ton of readers (I could be wrong), but I think he should. Adam comes across as a very good poker player and I enjoy reading his brog when he does post.Thanks again Mookie for always keeping poker and poker brogging interesting. Keep up the good work.
