Betting Strategy at Three Card Poker
Although this table game uses the hand rankings and general concept of poker, it lacks the subtlety and skill of variations like Texas hold’em and seven card stud, where the players compete directly with one another. In fact, three card poker is even simpler to play than blackjack, in which the player must learn the optimal decision for each set of hands in relation to the dealer’s up card. Three card poker involves only three decisions: Continue reading Betting Strategy at Three Card Poker…

High Stakes Poker Season 5 - POT LIMIT OMAHA!!?!
OH YES BABY! We’ll be seeing Pot Limit Omaha in the next (action-packed, that’s for sure now!) season of GSN’s High Stakes Poker. Season 5 of High Stakes Poker will be leaving the No-Limit Hold’em and will be introducing Omaha — a Hold’em variant with 4 hole cards and way, way more drawing… 
What does this mean? This means Sam Farha will become a SUPERSTAR amongst SUPERSTARS. He is by far the best Pot Limit Omaha player in the world and there is no way he won’t be a star in the game. His aggressive style will work even better in Omaha and the cameras love Sammy.
Bring it on — GSN!
Kings vs. Aces again
WTF I launch my Full Tilt client, play ONE hand and I pick up kings. I raise, get re-raised - call. Board is Q 9 2 two diamonds. Villain bets, I shove, get called, flips over aces. WTF I’m quitting for a couple days, so sick.
Read why this is sick right here.
Had Kings twice, ran into Aces twice
All the money went in pre-flop both times and I didn’t suck out — obviously.
Am I overplaying KK pre-flop? Is it even possible to overplay KK pre-flop? I feel sick though, was a good winning session if I hadn’t ran into AA on the last hand of the night for the second time…
Bah! 
The Poker Boom Explained
We all know good old Chris Moneymaker beating Sammy Farha in the 2003 World Series of Poker Main Event has helped the game of poker along the way like we never expected, but two articles from Poker Info Source and Poker Ustmib go deeper into the poker boom and the reasons behind it…
I suggest reading both as they’re both really excellent!
Pai Gow Strategy
I like the table games but I usually end up throwing my poker winnings out of the door by playing blackjack, roulette or Pai Gow. Everyone knows about blackjack and roulette — but apparently a lot of people don’t know anything about the Pai Gow Poker game…
I can help though –found a nice guide on Pai Gow Poker Strategy at Mollis’ Poker Blog.
Good luck losing your money a little slower! :p
Yes you are T.J. Cloutier!
I like my poker cartoons, and I like it when people make fun of COMPLETE BATTY BOYS like T.J. Cloutier!

Gus Hansen is a sick man
We’ve all seen Mr. Gus Hansen do crazy stuff at the pokertable. He likes to gamble, even though he actually plays tight most of the time during the earlier stages of big tournaments.
Anyway, this is a perfect example of the craziness of Mr. Gus Hansen…
Antonio Esfandiari makes a great move against BIG STACK gus who I believe makes a big mistake being big in chips together with Antonio…
Mike Sexton doesn’t get it.
Have been losing a lot…
I have been putting off talking about this on my blog for quite some time — but for honesty reasons I’ve decided to include you in on one of the most stressful months for me ever as a poker player. I’ll keep it brief, and I won’t elaborate on any useless details, but I just feel like it’s fair I shared this…
I’ve been losing. I usually average one or two losing sessions a week, but over the month of April I’ve only had like 5 or 6 winning sessions. Only one big one, and 4 BIG losing sessions, losing well over 5 buy-ins.
It looks like I’ve hit a fork in the road in my life as a poker player, and it seems like for the first time ever I’ll be moving down the limits to allow my bankroll to (hopefully) recover.
It’s a painful thing to do, but no more $5/$10 for me for a couple months, I’m afraid.
Please pray for me. I need assistance from Up There.
