LOL. That Tara Rice chick has to be the most irritating piece of tv-presenter EVER, but the tournament does look like fun.
“Some of the nations top models who have appeared in national publications such as Playboy Stuff Maxim FHM and more converge in Reno Nevada for the annual Supermodels of Black Jack Tournament- includes a bikini contest”
It’s basicly a poor video, but I wouldn’t mind being part of that party.
Good news for all my readers, I’m having a winning month again! Found a great Pot Limit Omaha game organized by some rich kid nearby and I have yet to score a losing session, it’s that soft. I’m hoping to keep that up and steadily recoop from my December losses.
I’ll keep you posted, obviously!
For the online Poker providers and online Casino providers there is a huge difference between Players who play Poker online and Players who play in online casinos.
First of all the difference between a Poker Player and a Casino Player is the Gamble. Poker is not really a gamble game because it has a lot of math inside the game.
Players who play in Casinos online only do it for the thrill of the gamble. This is why the provider has to offer a completely different online casino bounus and online poker bonus. The structure of these bonuses are that far apart that we should take a look at them. The main difference is that if players win in a Casino en Ligne they win from the casino. If Poker players win they win from the other online poker players and the poker room will take the poker rake. The beste online casino is the Casino that gives the most back to his players. Most Casinos online have a give back percentage of 96%-97% but if you look good there are Casinos that give back a percentage of 98%. The most landbased casinos have a percentage of 80-90 s that is much less. In the online poker rooms you can ask for rake back. In Poker online Rakeback is very usefull for the player because he gets a part of his money back. So if you look for Casino on-line and Poker rooms online make sure you choose the right one.
I’ve been playing Baccarat & Punto Banco for quite a few years now and I’ve actually been able to maintain a positive record for a long time, but over the course of the past couple weeks I’ve completely slipped and managed to lose about seven thousand dollars on the baccarat tables in close to no time…
I’ve decided to take a break from baccarat and focus on my poker which has been going extremely well, mostly playing online on various online poker sites…
We’ll see where things end, and I’ll obviously keep you posted! 
I got real lucky yesterday. Was in Ghent, Belgium having a couple drinks when I noticed a member of the notorious Alosta Rounders crew, probably the most eccentric Belgian poker formation to ever walk the earth… I visit Belgium on a regular basis and have heard the stories about them crushing about every single game in the country — so I wasn’t surprised to see Alosta Rounders member Tim J. arriving at a high-society club in a silver BMW…
After a couple drinks I gathered the courage to step up to him… We got to talking… I got a signature… I was so happy, like a little child…
That’s pretty slick proof, isn’t it?
Playing online bingo is all about winning prizes, isn’t it? You can play to win that jackpot, or to enjoy the thrill of coming first in a single line or that full house. There are a large number of free bingo online web sites where you can play bingo just for fun, or to play free bingo and win real cash.
Most web sites that you visit now-a-days will offer you a free trial with no deposit, where you can play bingo for free, and if you win in the game, you will win real money. The competition among different bingo web sites is getting fiercer, and in this case, if you are a beginner or an experienced player, you can go for finding bingo bonus sites and win some real cash for yourself.
Most of the bingo web sites match the amount of your first deposit and then double the money. So you can start playing with the doubled amount. Some of the bingo sites also offer up to a match of 300%, so it is always better to find the best site. You can also search for re-load bonus sites, the percentage that is added to all the other deposits that you had made, and can vary from 20-100% on each deposit.
In a video by Cardplayer Magazine Sam Farha talks about the game he loves… I love Sammy. He pushes the action in any game he plays and he’s a true playboy too. Excellent video!
With the poker boom seemingly crossing all age and ethnic boundaries, I am surprised at the number of people who still do not know how to play Texas hold’em. Some are simply uninterested, but the ‘Cadillac of Poker’ intimidates many willing would-be participants, as this nickname implies that the game is for experts only. Having taught numerous novices myself, I guarantee that the simple rules of the hold’em can quickly be picked up by anyone with even the slightest experience at card games.
All poker variants have the same underlying rule: the best five-card hand wins. Texas hold’em is no different, except that there are seven cards total from which to choose your final hand. At the beginning of the hand, each player is dealt two cards, known as the ‘hole cards.’ Usually, the two players to the left of the dealer must make a forced bet known as a blind; the player next to the dealer posts a ‘small blind’ of approximately half a bet while the player to his left posts a full bet known as the ‘big blind.’ Other players who wish to enter the hand after the deal must match (or call) the big blind, but they may also increase the amount of the bet by at least double (raise).
PPPPoker has been a good poker resource for some time earning them a couple links on our site and they’ve just done it again with an excellent post about How to Win at Limit Texas Hold’em.
Make sure to read it if you regularly play limit texas hold’em poker and don’t manage to win…
I had a huge night yesterday in my local casino where we have a shoe-based single deck blackjack game and it wasn’t thanks to my card counting skills… I spotted someone consistently playing a solid game varying his bet sizes throughout the shoe and decided to low-bet one shoe and see if I could do my basic KISS-count to see if his bets made sense…
They did — and for the coming two hours I followed his pattern of minbets up to 15x minbet to end up winning $4900. When he left I played on for about ten minutes before cashing out with $4700 profit. Not too shabby.
On my way to the cashier I noticed my hero playing the roulette — so I walked over and whispered a “thank-you for your excellent count” in his ear… He smiled and said: “Ha, I noticed”.
Great stuff — hope to spot him at the casino again soon!
