It’s been nice to get back to my roots a little bit.  As some of you know, before becoming a poker pro I was a web development consultant for about 5 years.  Since starting poker seriously, I programmed less and grinded poker more.  Obviously with Black Friday, the grinding has…”ground” itself down to a much slower pace.

For StolenBankrolls.com, I outsourced most of the development to a guy I’ve had pretty good results from with a previous project.  I wanted to do the site in Ruby on Rails 3 and given that I didn’t have any professional experience at this technology, it provided a good opportunity for me to learn something new and feel productive.  I wanted my developer to focus his expertise on the bulk of the work, but I also wanted to add some of my own personal touch…Enter the interactive map!

The past few days I’ve been working on making the site look a little nicer and make the navigation a little better.  I’ve added the green navigation bar plus a new totals page that shows where some of the biggest bankrolls have been submitted (by state for the US and by country for the rest of the world).  Check it out, I hope you like it:  StolenBankrolls.com/totals

I’ll be on the QuadJacks radio program tonight at 7pm central time talking about the FTP hearing tomorrow and StolenBankrolls.com.
