PLO?

Date: Tue, Jun 17, 2008 Internet

After having read Dr. Pauly's PLO-related post, I'm starting to wonder if there's going to be a noticeable shift towards PLO and Omaha in general over the next little while. I think there are a whole lot of poker players out there who've played as high as they're gonna play in Texas Hold'em and might be looking for a change of pace. Just wondering if there might be a chance to make some money at PLO by getting in at the ground floor before a possible explosion in popularity � la...

I'm Still Full...

Date: Mon, Jun 16, 2008 Internet

I had a great Father's Day weekend. I got a lot of sleep, a lot of food, watched some TV and a movie, and even spent some time with my Xbox 360. Unfortunately, I didn't spend any time gambling or playing poker. It's not my fault though... I was all set to gamble it up on InterCasino this weekend. But after installing the necessary software, I tried to login to my account. I was promptly told that my player account was locked. Crap! I immediately contacted support to see if anything...

Games and Gambling: Father's Day Weekend

Date: Fri, Jun 13, 2008 Internet

You undoubtedly noticed the three separate advertisement posts that I put up earlier today. It seems that all the talk of gambling has got me in the "mood", so to speak. I should also thank InterCasino for my current condition. Why? I received yet another piece of Air Mail in my mailbox last night. I love air mail! I especially love it when any new air mail contains letters that tell me that I've been awarded a random cash bonus at some online poker room or online casino. This time...

Father's Day!

Date: Thu, Jun 12, 2008 Internet

I'm really looking forward to this weekend. Why? Father's Day! Last year, I didn't quite appreciate how blessed an occasion it is for fathers around the world. It's been a long year. I love my kids to death and my wife definitely does the bulk of the work around house. Still, it'll be nice to enjoy a day that celebrates me and my role as a dad. I'd like to say that my weekend involves plans to play poker. I'm just not sure how willing I'll be to spend hours hunched over a laptop and lose...

It's Getting Worse

Date: Tue, Jun 10, 2008 Internet

It seems that my video game addiction has gotten worse in light of my recent crap-assery at the poker tables. I'm now making the jump from "gateway" first-person shooter games to the much more hardcore (and nerdy) J-RPGs. Who knows what's coming up next...? Let's just hope it's not World of Warcraft...

Pocket Eights at Party Poker

Date: Mon, Jun 9, 2008 Internet

Friday night. 11:35 PM. I got the chance to play some poker. My goal? To do whatever I could before my $100 Party bonus expires at midnight. I decided to sit at a $400 NLHE 6-max table. Raised my AQ first hand from the BB when both the button and SB limped. I took it down. Second hand, I raised my KQs from the SB when the button limped. I took it down. My third hand, I made it 4BB to go on the button with my 88. SB insta-jammed on me for another $50. I called and lost to his 99....

Time to Gamble

Date: Thu, Jun 5, 2008 Internet

My wife wanted me to hit the exercise bike last night. But I was too tired. The only thing worse than exercising while tired is exercising and gambling while tired. But I can assure you, my readers, that I will be gambling tomorrow night. My $100 bonus at Party expires on Saturday and I've barely put a dent in it. I think I'll go with a PLO, PLO8, and NLHE cocktail and see what damage I can do to my bonus money. If I can't seem to get anything going with the poker, I may choose to follow...

Omaha, Air Mail, and an Exercise Bike

Date: Wed, Jun 4, 2008 Internet

So I gave PLO8 (pot-limit Omaha 8 or better) a try yesterday while sweating my ass off on my exercise bike. The verdict? I'm glad I was playing with bonus money. TOTAL WEIGHT LOST: 5 lbs. TOTAL MONEY WON: $0 When I got home from work yesterday, I checked the mail. I found a letter delivered via air mail and addressed to me. As I've mentioned before, online poker rooms seem to be one of the few companies that will send spam to its customers using air mail. When I opened the letter up at...

A Time to Lose

Date: Mon, Jun 2, 2008 Internet

I normally avoid putting up any personal details about my life. Although my real-life self is not much different than my online persona, I prefer to keep my family and my home life as private as possible. Today, however, I'm going to deviate a little from my standard operating procedure because a quasi-new life goal will impact my life as a poker player as well. A couple years ago, I announced that I was intending on dropping some weight. Like many poker bloggers, I suffer from a healthy...

The Games Have Got Me

Date: Wed, May 28, 2008 Internet

I've got money sitting online waiting to be increased through careful application at various virtual poker tables and/or blackjack tables. Party Poker gave me some free money that I can spend as I see fit...as long as I don't try to withdraw it, of course. I've got a 41 sit-n-go winless streak to defend or break (I haven't decided which option I'll stick with). I've been reading a lot of stuff about Omaha and Omaha/8. I like money and there are a lot of things I could do with some...

Party Time!

Date: Tue, May 27, 2008 Internet

What's the best way to increase your bankroll? Hard work? Study? Perseverance? While those tried and tested methods can work wonders, nothing beats the wonder of free money! Don't you love it when Party Poker feels the need to share their wealth with their players? Anytime I receive a letter sent by airmail, I know it's poker-related. So I was a little excited when I found just such a letter sitting in my mailbox after work last night. After getting home and kissing the family hello, I...
