PocketFives: Tell us your thoughts on the return of regulated online poker to New Jersey.

Brett Jungblut: I think it is great that New Jersey has embraced a regulated online poker scene. Hopefully the people in charge can pave the way for other states to follow. The games, when they are going, have been very juicy.

PocketFives: What have you been up to since Black Friday? Did you relocate to continue playing poker online?

Brett Jungblut: Black Friday was definitely a life-changer for me, as I had been an online player since 1997, when I first started playing on Planet Poker and the screen name Gank was born. It forced me to play more live poker and I spent the past few years in Vegas grinding. Las Vegas, in general, has felt the force of Black Friday; the games are much tougher and very few true fish are around.

PocketFives: What are your favorite New Jersey online poker sites to play and why?

Brett Jungblut: PartyPoker is at the top of my list, as they have enough traffic in all areas to satisfy the needs of my ADD. My one piece of advice for all of the sites is to start running more guaranteed tournaments earlier in the day. It is almost impossible to grind until after 6:00pm or so tournament-wise because there are not a lot of MTTs now.

PocketFives: Do you plan on playing in the New Jersey Championship of Online Pokeron PartyPoker/Borgata Poker?

Gank: Yeah, I plan on playing a few of the events and winning at least one! After party at ProPokerSchool.com!
