Let's Play
Date: Fri, Jul 4, 2008 Internet
My plans for this weekend are simple: time with the family, time with Lost Odyssey (my newest Xbox 360 RPG), and some poker. That's right! It's time to start re-introducing poker back into my life. I'm going to take it slowly. I need to view poker as a game and not a second job. Less focus on money and more focus on the game will help me better withstand poker's ups and downs.
So let's come up with a new plan of attack. If you're a regular reader, you'll know that I love to set both...

It's a Bizarro World
Date: Thu, Jul 3, 2008 Internet
Sometimes I just don't get it. For months on end, I lose most coin-flips when it really matters. I bubble out of sit-n-go after sit-n-go. My bankroll goes from impressive to mediocre. My poker skills go from seemingly solid to flat-out terrible. And my confidence in my ability to pull off a winning session disappears completely.
Monday evening, it's like I was living in Bizarro world. With the help of a friend and some refreshing drinks, I had a fairly solid night at the tables.

Poker, Beer, and a Technical Question
Date: Mon, Jun 30, 2008 Internet
I played a little poker on the weekend. It felt a little strange at first but I was back into the swing of it in no time. And I was actually up 20 BBs in a little less than 15 minutes. I'll admit that I was playing at the $10 NLHE tables but that's all PokerTime had available at the time given my paltry bankroll at that site. Still, it was fun being able to outplay my opponents on many of the hands that I played. I started to remember why I liked poker!
It's with that attitude that I'll...

Still Nerding It Up
Date: Thu, Jun 26, 2008 Internet
Tonight I pick up the beer that I'll be drinking next Monday. What's happening next Monday? Poker! I may not be able to stomach the game sober right now so I'll partake of some liquid courage prior to hitting the tables. Will this hurt my results? Probably not. I'm playing terribly right now anyway; I doubt a few drinks will be my downfall.
In the meantime, I've been busy playing and writing about role-playing games on my other site - The Greedy Gamer. I've been playing Eternal Sonata...

Have ever wondered how to get started with Online Casino Gambling? You've got some money set aside. You're itching to gamble but there's not a casino within driving distance of your home. And even though you've heard about Online Casino Gambling, you're just not sure where to start.
I was in just such a spot a couple years ago and was fortunate enough to have a friend show me the ropes. My game of choice was (and still is,...

I was coming out of the grocery store the other day and was suddenly assaulted by a couple raggedy looking kids. They were selling chocolates of questionable quality in the name of some random charity. I'm not sure which charity they were talking up nor do I know the exact contents of the boxes of chocolates they were holding. All I know is that they were holding out their hands and looking for my money.
Did you know...

Have you ever tried to play online poker for play money? I'm sure some of you out there think it's fun. And I'm also sure that many of you regard "play money" poker as something far removed from actual poker. Poker as a game revolves around money. Sure - there are cards. And there are other players at the table. But in the end, a good night at the tables boils down to one thing and one thing only: did you make any...
