BLUEDAY'S DAILY POKER BLOG

This was a very interesting topic for me... I never looked for or considered such software might exist! I would call it cheating and don't think that is too strong a word... perhaps why I never thought of it, as cheating never occurs to me.

888Poker offer you $8 absolutely free when you sign up to their site and with low buyin tournaments such as the 60 seater super turbo at only 2c entry cost, you can literally play 400 games with that free cash.

These super turbo games don't last too long as they are speed tournaments and the top prize is only 52c which isn't a huge prize but on the other hand, it isn't a bad return for your 2c buyin....read some more

Thinking about the future of online poker....are my thoughts totally off the wall?

[kattboots]

Now this is a thought provoking subject! It occurred to me that it never occurred to me. I have been too focused on whether or not we will have online poker at all in the US... But, blue your ideas about the 3D and the feeling of really being at the table are exciting ideas! I am not sure I would want anyone looking at me while I play online poker... I am doing any number of things while I am playing and none of them include sitting at a table!

While I was typing that I was playing in the $7500 tourney I won that seat in last week... reading the forum, my email, and playing with half my mind... bombed out big time!

Quite often when playing poker, you might limp into a hand and hit top pair or even get lucky with two pairs. You feel confident that you are in the lead and then the worst happens, the chip leader raises big, meaning you would be all in if you call.....read more

Oh blue, you have just described one of the most gut-wrenching moments in a game for me! And I am so very good at picking the wrong answer! I generally will fold and save my chips to fight another hand! I have to quell the idea that the big stack is just being a bully!

I almost always get it wrong, particularly when it's a new table that I've just joined and I haven't had time to work out if the "all-in'er" is a bully or just a good player.  Glad I'm not alone Katt.

Nope you will never be alone when it comes to picking the wrong thing to do in poker! I am really good at that... and yes, new tables get me pretty bad!

Plus, you just get that other table full of players figured out and you have them thinking they have you figured out and bam new table!

Got me on Saturday in my big $7500 tournament... I was on a roll, doing great, building my stack... table changed and I did not change fast enough with it and lost all I gained and more! Ouch!

It has been said many times that poker can take a moment to learn and a lifetime to master. Whoever coined the phrase knew what they were talking about! Anyone can sit down at a virtual table and play poker but it takes someone with the need and urge to play a better game and soak up all that there is to learn......read more

There was the usual blind stealing going on and with a profit of $150 each time, it was definitely a worthwhile action to take. One player was particularly aggressive in his play. He started with $500 and was up to $1200 within a couple of minutes by just stealing blinds. He did this by raising all in the first time and then min raising for a few hands after that.....read more

Small stakes such as 2c/4c or even as low as 1c/2c can be a relaxing way to spend time playing poker. You don't have to fight to be in the paying places like tournaments or sitngo games, because if you win, you win real cash there and then....read more
