JC Tran get’s hosed – where’s instant replay when you need it…
November 9, 2007In a hand where a guy moved allin on him with A/7o nothing on the flop, JC immediately called with Trip 9’s…in his disgust the guy attempted to muck his hand. Throwing his cards face down toward the muck. They didn’t hit the muck however, and the dealer exposed the cards…whereby the poker gods came laughning and went runner runner for a st8 and take the pot away from Tran. Interesting situation, Tran should be commended for how he handled the situation calmly like a true professional. Although, playing for millions, this sh$t shouldn’t happen.

Dapo takes down $100+9 on Pokerstars
November 9, 2007Dapo Fadeyi, a founding member of Team PROP, took down a $100+9 buyin on Pokerstars last night, under the alias greygoose8. He outlasted 300 players to take home the $8250 first place prize. Listen to Dapo breakdown his thought process throughout this event:
“Well going into the tourney my strategy was just to be patient early and try to pick up a few hands and generally if I can get away with a few bluffs early things generally go well for me. Things went to plan as I picked up some big pairs early and won a lot of small uncontested pots. I was one of the chip leaders the entire tourney. A major hand for me was … Read the rest of this entry »

Durrr amongst the Chip Leaders @ Foxwoods…Freddy Deeb and Zeejustin are aswell.
November 9, 2007He is known more for his cash game skills than his tournament prowess, but that doesn’t mean that online phenom Tom “durrrr” Dwan can’t build a chip stack. On day 1b of the World Poker Finals, Dwan jumped out to an early chip lead after doubling up with a straight flush and spent the rest of the day terrorizing his table and increasing his stack.

Negative Sum Game
November 8, 2007This post is about sustainability. It’s about inefficient legislation. It’s about the future. It’s about economic trends. It’s about special interest groups. It’s about corruption.
Are we talking about politics? No. Well, mostly no. We’re talking poker, and the future of the game we all enjoy.
Poker is currently a negative sum game… Read the rest of this entry »

Phil Ivey Wisdom
November 7, 2007From fulltiltpoker.com:
When it comes to advice about poker, my attitude is very simple: seek it out, absorb it, but while you’re at the table, forget it.
I’m a firm believer in learning the game by playing the game. I’m not saying there aren’t a lot of great resources around to help players improve their games or that poker books and tutorials don’t have their place. They do. However, the problem I see with people who rely on these kinds of aids is that they end up playing poker like someone else or – even worse – like everyone else. Read the rest of this entry »

October 29, 2007So you’ve read all the books, studied the games of the pros and rising stars, think you got this poker thing all figured out?
Now you find yourself grinding away at a .25/.50 table(s) trying to build your roll, because you know all about bankroll management, and you aren’t going busto like so many before you.

North American Poker Championship
October 28, 2007This tourney is a special one for us, being close to where our founder grew up. Niagara Falls, CA is considered one of the great wonders of the world, and really worth checking out if you’ve never been there. It’s crazy to think hundreds of people have gone over the falls in barrels….
Anyways, they are also playing a poker tournament there. Jon Little ended Day 1A with the chip lead. Many notables are doing well.

Blow up a Game
October 24, 2007Sometimes it can be fun to completely blow up a poker game. Team player Will Lin is an expert at this strategy, and it was fun to watch him play in Vegas this week.
Now, to set the stage: Will is a big game cash player with a few nice tournament results as well, so he has a bankroll to support this high variance strategy…but sometimes he wants to blow off a little steam by doing something similiar to the following:
Imagine you normally play 25/50NL (or higher), where a standard open raise is $200. If you drop down to the 1/2 NL game, where the normal buyin is $200-300, and the standard open is $10 you can create some interesting dynamics and truly be the ‘table captain’ by continuing to play above the game. What does that mean exactly?

One reason not to play @ Absolute Poker?
October 17, 2007Absolute Poker is currently in the midst of a PR nightmare, and perhaps a bigger concern for the online poker community in general.
Apparently, there has been evidence of ‘super accounts’ on the site – capable of seeing everyone’s hole cards, ip addresses, names, etc. These accounts won a lot of money and then proceeded to ‘dump’ it in 200/400 NL games, to a newly created account, that cashed out right away.
You can read more about it on Pocketfives or Two Plus Two poker forums.
It’s a scary thought, and certainly something to be concerned with while playing online. Thankfully, we’re all addicted and can’t stop playing, so we don’t have to worry too much! GG me.

Global Call to Action Against Poverty
October 17, 2007Today, 10/17 is Global Call to Action Against Poverty (GCAAP) Day.
Poverty is an issue that can impact people in a variety of ways from the global and country level all the way down to the individual. Countries can be weighed down by debt not allowing them to invest in appropriate infrastructures likes schools, communications, and hospitals – leaving the people of that country without much hope or opportunity.
