The Poker Scribes

I was pretty critical of Mike Paulle and Max Shapiro the other day.

But, they are far from the only tournament reporters on the block.

Tony "tikay" Kendall is rightly becoming well known over at blondepoker for his engaging takes on the European poker scene.

But, two others have made their mark recently too. Rolf Slotboom is writing reports for pokerpages and I must confess I was suprised how good they were. Check them out next time there's a major European event.

But, really the new king of tournament reporting is Brad "Otis" Willis who reports on PokerStars sponsored events here.

He gives a real flavour of the events and has taken tournament reporting to a new level. Next time PokerStars have an event, don't go anywhere else for your updates.

I agree.

No, I don't think you are being too hard on Paulle. Perhaps not hard enough.

Brad "Otis" Willis is the man. His reporting on the French open was first rate, telling it like it was with less opinion. His hand by hand accounts are priceless. He also gets the reports out faster than I go all in with the bullets.
