After six years of being the dealer of all things poker here at About.com, the time has come for me to stand up from the table and call it a night. I've highly enjoyed sharing tales from the table, giving advice, and helping more people learn the greatest game there is and sitting down to play.

I hope to see you at a poker table soon. And on that note, here are some resources to get you there:

• Home games 101
• How to host a poker tournament

Best of luck to you all!
