Online Poker - How to be a success at Multi-tablingMany poker amateurs will agree that playing on just one online poker table to be quite a daunting task, to think that more experienced players delve into playing on up to 10 & 20 tables is a very difficult task to accomplish.

Been Playing a LittleI've been watching updates on the WSOP and it has me missing live poker. Since I've moved to Florida, my weekly game with my friends stopped obviously and I haven't been seeking local poker players around here to find a game. I've never trusted online sites that capture local games and I don't trust people that would post their games on those sites. I would be interested in

The Price of VIP ProgramsI don't want to call anybody out and make somebody look bad, so I'll keep this post generic. There was a recent article about a player who sacrificed their time (a lot of it) to make it so a high VIP level on a popular site. That player got some perks including trips and I'm sure plenty of semi-free products of his choice.Sounds awesome right?I wondered how much he gave

Poker PromotionsNow that I'm more of a small-time poker player in that I no longer commit as many hours to poker as I did my job and I no longer play for anywhere near the amount of money I used to play for, my new favorite bookmarks are the promotions pages at Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars.Even when I was playing a ton, I'd go and check out those pages (along with Party's, UB's and a few others

Olympic Hockey OddsI'm a big hockey fan as much as I don't watch baseball, football or basketball. I happen to be Washington Capitals fan where we get to enjoy watching the best player on the planet, Alex Ovechkin (who is from Russia), every game. The Caps have and have had other Russian players as well. Its funny how much watching and cheering for Ovechkin and the other Russians has gotten me to

I'm looking forward to seeing if common sense prevails, if only so our government can get more tax revenue.Rather than reiterating the article here, I'll point you to it:
