► This new and improved site is almost ready to be launched! The old site, pokervan.net, is going to be retired. Who wants a dot-net anyway? Thanks a lot to Aleks (Intypol) for helping me put it all together. I owe ya buddy!

► Check out vandweller's current series on DeucesCracked.com, "Real Life: Micro SNG Grinder". In this series, vandweller takes brand new DeucesCracked member, and frankly terrible sit-n-go player, veloblank, and coaches him into a solid winner over the course of eight episodes.

Next episode: Thursday, May 28th, 2009... "Episode Six: Complications? - Has veloblank reverted to his old ways? In this episode, the V-team takes a look at some of veloblank's short-handed, medium and high-blind hands. vandweller also explains how NOT using ICM tools to review one's games can help one find leaks. He reveals his humble origins as a vandweller, and velo wonders if DC coaches ever leave their homes."

► vandweller continues working on his upcoming live lecture course, "Notes From the Van". If you've consumed and digested all the SNG books and articles out there and are left wanting more, this course is the "more". This is top-flight info from a perspective you just won't find anywhere else. This eight lecture course will be launched soon, tentatively in August 2009. Keep checking the Courses page for updates.

► Work on vandweller's book-in-progress Sit-N-Gos From Scratch is going a bit more slowly than anticipated due to his working on a couple of labor-intensive endeavors (his upcoming "Notes From the Van" course, and a top-secret project for DeucesCracked.com), as well as a complete conceptual reworking of the entire book. (No biggie.) Completion and publication is tentatively scheduled for December 2009, but then again, who knows.

► Don't miss vandweller's two acclaimed "Blackboard" videos on DeucesCracked.com, "Flying Blinds" and "ICM from Scratch". Some members have called them the two best Sit-N-Go videos on any training site ever. We won't go that far, but we still think they are pretty good...and you can download and keep them for free.
