Mike Matusow gets served a HUGE beat by Allen Cunningham
From NBC’s Poker After Dark – this obnoxious hand between Mike Matusow and Allen Cunningham where the ever so unlucky Mike gets hit with the hammer on the turn. Yes, he was short stacked, but still…

I’m losing for October
For some reason I can’t get a winning session under my belt for this month. It sucks as I’ve been playing close to my A-game, but I’m really being slaughtered by cold deck situations (nights with 3 set-over-set instances etc, it sucks badly)…
Yesterday I lost a big chunk of my bankroll in a rollercoaster I can only describe as sick…
Flopped quad tens to get rivered by Quad kings (all the money went in on the turn, obv nothing he could do — but still), made a straight flush and LOST against the higher straight flush and flopped a set of sixes only to get beat by a set of aces that decided to smoothcall pre-flop…
BAH
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!
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
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.
