It was another big Sunday on the virtual felt, and poker pros Jon "PearlJammer" Turner and Jude "j.thaddeus" Ainsworth are among those banking some coin. Read all about it in the Sunday Briefing.

Online poker pros are not always in their cozy homes, sometimes they're on the road grinding it out. Check out how Gualter Salles, Victor Ramdin and Dan Frank play on Sundays in this week's edition of The Sunday Grind.

Tony Dunst Introduced as WPT Raw Deal Host

After searching (suffering) through hundreds of audition tapes, the World Poker Tour has found itself a host for the Raw Deal TV segment it will be introducing. In the end, online poker professional Tony "Bond18" Dunst, who has always been unafraid to speak his mind, wooed WPT officials into hiring him for the role, which will be introduced to viewers for the first time at this year's upcoming Festa al Lago at Bellagio on October 15.

��For years, I watched the WPT every week and memorized the final hands, then would pick apart the strategy,�� Dunst said. "I��m looking forward to the opportunity to work with icons Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten, who were crucial to bringing our industry into its modern, global form. The WPT has given me carte blanche to be myself. I'll be as candid, blunt, and absurd as I like; a sweet deal, and I'm honored they chose me.��
