I like the colors, except for the green logo on blue.

What I'd like in the layout is bit more consistency with the vertical alignment.
For example, lose the date above the Poker.com ad and it would align with the sections on the right better. Also, I think the two green bars when you have "Items of interest" and right below it "Poker News" is superfluous. I think the colored title bars alone are sufficient to draw attention, you could probably remove the "Items of interest"

Also, I deem the "Latest blog entries" more important than the syndication feature, or the "Pending actions", so you could re-order those.

Just quick thoughts, and only my personal opinions.
