Dropped $100 in my $1/$2 no limit game this past wednesday. I played well…I just didn’t really get any strong hands. I know…it sounds like an excuse, but it’s true. But seriously, if I were good, I should win the majority of the time, right? That’s what I think. So, does that mean my no [...]
We were finally able to scrounge up enough players on Monday night to have a full table. I can’t believe how hard it is to find players these days and I live in DC! Thankfully, I was able to get some players from the local yahoo group that I posted on. We had 11 players…four [...]
Signed up for Noble Poker this weekend. I wanted to see what this site was all about. Aparently, it’s part of the Playtech network, which is also what CD Poker uses. The interface is actually not that bad. It’s a hell of a lot better than the Prima Network (Pacific, Aztec Riches, etc.). Anyways, after [...]
I played in a free no limit hold’em tournament tonight at Fado’s. You can pretty much find a free no limit tournament any day of the night these days. The bars lure the customers in on otherwise off nights and make loot from people buying drinks and dinner. I paid $4.50 for a miller lite! [...]
My $10/$20 limit game stinks. I’m not exactly sure what I’m doing wrong, but I do know that I’m a losing player in $10/$20. My semi-loose aggressive play doesn’t seem to work in that game. More players call me down, more players check-call top pair, and more players raise preflop. I’m not adjusting well. Fortunately, [...]
I reloaded $1000 into Bodog last night. The 20% bonus is pretty money and I’ve already withdrawn my first $1k deposit a few weeks ago without any problems. All you have to do is earn 300 bodog points per $100 in bonus money. I played about 30 minutes of $5/$10 limit hold’em last night. I [...]
This describes the way I was feeling last night at my $1/$2 no limit game: During the 2004 World Series of poker, for example, he entered a $1,000 no-limit event that allowed players to buy back in as many times as they wanted within the first two hours–a structure that generates fairly loose play in [...]
Man…I got beaten up last night! $600 in a $1/$2 no limit game and we only played for about 5 hours. I don’t know what it was last night, but I felt like I needed to outplay everyone at the table. I played a lot of hands, and limped in with hands that I should’ve [...]
I meant to post this before my vacation, but I forgot. Anyways…here’s what Tom McEvoy wrote in his article in Card Player Magazine: “It is particularly important in tournament play to recognize leaks in your game and correct them as completely and quickly as possible. The top pros understand that playing mistake-free poker is their [...]
Well, I guess I should elaborate on this “poker cruise” that bodog.com sent us on. They decided to award one of their top affiliates with a free cruise because they were sponsoring part of it. The cruise was actually a normal cruise ship with non-poker players, but about 200-300 of the cruisers were brought onto [...]
It’s about 2am now and I just got back from the Poker Cruise that Bodog.com sent us on. It was friggin amazing. An 8-day cruise from L.A. to Alcapulco to Ixtapa to Puerta Vallarta to Cabo San Lucas and then back to L.A. I played a ridiculous amount of poker on that cruise and met [...]
