There are many so called “rules” of poker and we are not always talking about the basic rules either because there are golden rules as well. For example many money management rules shouldn’t really be broken at any price. In fact we can substitute the word “rule” for the word “dogma” because fundamentally then you are trying to become indoctrinated in a certain way of playing poker when you study the game. I know that I haven’t posted for a while but that was purely because I haven’t been... Read Full Story

As a mainly online poker player then I obviously do not have a lot of use for chips tricks . However I can see their value even if a lot of players think that they have none. I used to be a croupier some years ago but in that job then being able to do complex chip tricks used to be a sign of experience. This is also the case in live poker and I dare say that being able to do skilful tricks can have quite an intimidating effect on some opponents. In fact to be able to do poker chip tricks at...

As an industry pro of nearly ten years then I am well versed in moving from poker site to poker site. In fact I think as players get to know your game then this may be the single most important thing that you do as an online poker player. Pokerroom has reopened its doors recently to the public and this used to be one of my favourite haunts some years ago. For me then the choice of an online poker site is a very important one for any serious poker player and I will explain my reasons for that... Read Full Story

I was having a discussion recently regarding Pokerroom reopening its doors to the public once again. This used to be one of my favourite online poker site some years ago and I am delighted to hear that it has reopened its doors and is doing business again. I have been onto their site and have been very impressed by what I have seen so far. Most serious online players need various attributes from any poker site to be able to optimise their earn rate. The first and most important one is player... Read Full Story

I haven’t posted in ages and have to say sorry about that but time has been rather pressing in many areas. I haven’t even found the time to play much poker online these days and trading on the exchanges has been taking up my time. However there has been a lull in proceedings and so I have been back active playing a little poker again. I also need to say that I am also delighted to hear of the return of one of my favourite poker sites from the past and that is Pokerroom which opened its... Read Full Story

Pokerroom has opened its online doors once again and I for one am very pleased about that being an old time regular of the site. I am pleased to announce that they are running a multitude of cash poker games with as many as 40,000 players online during peak time. They are also offering very attractive sign up bonuses as well with 100% up to $1000 which is one of the best sign up bonuses around online at this time and I should know because I for one look for them. Most serious poker players... Read Full Story

Many serious players will tell you that staying on the same poker site for too long is not conducive to success as an online poker player. This in my mind is a double edged sword because if you do in fact switch around from site to site then you run the risk of destroying all of the notes that you have built up on all of the players on your database. It is these notes that really become the bed rock of your poker operation. So when it comes to actually recommending a poker site then I can and... Read Full Story

As 2011 draws to a close and with it my poker year then it is time to have a look at what I plan to do in 2012 in terms of which poker games I am looking to play in and how. I have been multi-tabling NL100 and while I have had a good year and averaged a good return in dollars per hour then I have realised that things have become a whole lot tougher in which to try and make a living. It is amazing really when you think about it just how online poker has evolved. When I first started playing... Read Full Story

To make money these days playing NLHE then you need to play differently to the masses. To do this means that you need to know just how the masses play in online poker games. Let us look at full ring games for example to show what I am talking about here. Just how does a reg make money at these levels from say NL25 through NL200? Well I think that there are an awful lot of tight-rakeback pro’s at these levels or semi-pro’s. These guys are doing nothing special but churn as much volume as they... Read Full Story

T here are many misconceptions in poker and one of the most famous quotes in the game often leads to many players not fully understanding the strategic flaws that are inherent within it. Like for instance the famous quote which goes “if you can call then raise”. This is a generalised statement at best which does very little to help the poker student. For example let us say that you have 5d-5c on the button and a middle position player makes it $3.50 to go at www.pokerstars.co.uk in a full... Read Full Story
