Yes, a new, unstoppable age has evolved that will change the poker economy forever. The technology moves at a rapid rate that will sustain poker's growth far into the future ( Read more... )

Talked with a lot of people. WSOP management just doesn't get it. They probably can't destroy the property and know it. At every turn there are problems; problems with easy solutions or caused by neglect ( Read more... )

I bought the Cloutier & McEvoy book. If you want to play Omaha of any flavor, that is the book. I had bought the Tanner & Kreiger and found it confusing. Not a bad book but one you need to read 3-4 times to start getting it. C&M makes it simple. I was playing O-H in under an hour of reading with good results ( Read more... )

The other evening 20/20 had a show about the blue and red battle. They showed a wealthy town in N.J. and one in bible belt Tejas. As a nation we really are showing what a second class education system produces. I got exposed to a liberal harpy who knows exactly what is good for the world and a bible pounding good ol' boy ready to send me ( Read more... )

Yes, Ultimate Bet. Used to play SnG's over 100 hours every month. Asked them to be like all the other sites and give us rake credit. Ended up in a wizzing contest with some support jamoke and said I'd play there only if it changed. Real Money wise that's the case. I did play the cardplayer freerolls there and every cent that I won I withdrew ( Read more... )

I opened this account on Titan to get a signup bonus for a site I like. Threw $50 on the site. Played a bit and went up/down/around and had $49.80 on the site. So, I took $4.80 to a table to lose and get my $45 off the place. Went to a table; waited for the BB; put on my .10 BB and then figured out it was a limit table. People will tell you ( Read more... )

I used to love poker. I'd play over 100 hours a month. And, I knew how to make a profit. That said, I've never been a gambler. It was always at modest stakes. I played for the 'intellectual' challenge. (I know; but, I guess I am a straight man at heart ( Read more... )

Well, my RSS feed from USA Today has another abortion article. Why does humanity choose up side where there can be no good outcome? From playground to senility we seem bent on that. I certainly tilted at my share of windmills too. We're all guilty ( Read more... )

I play a decent tournament game. Won a few and placed in a bunch. But, I'm not seriously +EV by most standards. I don't keep track but I'm probably up 600 to 800. Tournament play is a rough way to make consistent profits. SnG play is a better EV experience for most ( Read more... )

I have been reading the self-flagation going on by some 'Softies" and its fun in a voyuristic way. I just had to throw in my two-cents ( Read more... )
