Empire Poker was really the only poker room that stiffed us of our money. After we referred a ridiculous amount of players to their site, they came back to us and said that they weren’t going to pay us because our players weren’t making enough money for them. Whatever! Here’s how I see it. It’s [...]

How did I get started in the affiliate business? About a year ago, I was looking to buy some Kem Cards for my home game. I found out that they were pretty expensive and very hard to find, since Kem was in the process of relocating their production facilities. Well, after numerous hours of searching [...]

So, I made it to the $1/$2 no limit game last night around 8pm’ish. I get there with about $300 in cash (the stupid ATM only allowed a maximum withdrawal of $200). There was already a full table going with about 11 players and get this…there was a waiting list. I was the 6th player [...]

I’m playing in a $1/$2 no limit game tonight with randoms players whom I’ve never played with before. It’ll be interesting learning, reading, and adjusting to the different styles of the new players. I’m going to bring a bankroll of about $400-$500. The main objective of tonight is to win money. Lots of it. I’ll [...]

Played in my regular $.50/$1.00 no limit game last night (we upped it from $.25/$.50 to $.50/$1.00). I ended up dropping my entire wad of $60 by 3:00am. We played for a whopping 7.5 hours on a Monday night! Ridiculous if you ask me. I was soooo frigging tired by the end of the night [...]

I got 43 hits on my blog yesterday. That’s the second highest day besides the day that Guiness and Poker posted my blog on his site. It’s kinda funny that I check my blog stats every day. I guess I find it fascinating that people actually read what I have to write about. Even though [...]

Bodog has odds for the Main Event: Bodog Poker Odds I think the best bet out of the whole list is probably 1/15 that a male will win the bracelet. That means, for every $1500 wagered, you’ll get $100 back. That’s a lot to risk for $100, but considering the fact that females will probably [...]

Check out this video about Negreanu talking trash to Barry Greenstein about his 7-card stud heads up match: Cardplayer video Pretty cool to see his emotions behind his blogs. The two blogs that I read pretty much daily are Negreanu’s and Arieh’s. Although, Arieh hasn’t really had too much excitement lately. All he talks about [...]

So, we lowered the limits on our $1/$2 game to $.50/$1.00 last night. I ended up taking home $55. I should’ve won more, but I got scared to make a big call on one hand. You can read about it in the hand of the week. I have a big problem making big calls. I [...]

I’m down to about $630 at UB. Mostly playing $3/$6 limit. Multiple tables of course. Played in my $.25/$.50 game on Monday night. I was up about $100 or so, until a drunk guy came in and started hitting every hand possible. I ended up walking away with $35. That’ll be lunch and dinner money [...]

I found this post on casinomeister.com: http://www.casinomeister.com/rogue/start-your-casino.html This website is like the online casino police. They go out and test all of these online casinos for “rogue” software and they report all of their finding on the website. Anyways, they have a link in this post to the “settings page” of one of these online [...]

I haven’t been playing online too much lately. I don’t know, I guess I just haven’t had too much time. I really do need to shape up though. I’ll be in Vegas in less than 5 weeks, so it’s time to get the A Game going. In the meantime, I’ll talk a little about the [...]
