The region looked like a winter wonderland Sunday, but many people were wondering when they were going to be able to dig themselves out after a Christmas blizzard dumped up to two feet of snow across the plains. Traffic was starting to move around in the Yankton area Sunday as roadways were slowly opened up by snowplows.

Improved Play in PL Games - if a wheel is possible it now gives up all hands with a high value lower than straight, plus on non-threatening boards it now plays two-way hands against one opponent very aggressively (where the opponent would need to use all four cards to beat you in both directions).

The United States and China are warming up - at least symbolically - their military ties ahead of United States President Barack Obama's first official visit to China in mid-November. In late October, General Xu Caihou, the second-highest ranking officer in the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA), started a long trip to the US.

Everyone loves a list, whether it's the best films ever made or the world's richest people. Naturally, the rankings are often subjective, but whether you agree with them or not, it's safe to say they always make for great debates down the pub. However, when it comes to the poker world - and trying to figure out who are the best players to ever grace the baize - it gets a little tricky.

Shulman was born in Seattle, WA. He became a millionaire through real estate investments. After retiring from real estate during the mid-1990s, Shulman moved to Las Vegas to play poker professionally and bought the poker industry's leading publication, Card Player magazine, in 1999. He initially served as its President and Publisher.

In fact many professionals are switching to PLO as much of the value is drying up in hold 'em. Texas Hold 'em is the game that is advertised the most, and so attracts the most players. This then has the knock on effect that more players end up wanting to educate themselves at this form of poker. So it has led to the average player at hold 'em being stronger at this time than your average player at Omaha but that gap is closing fast.

Tomorrow I'm going to go through everything I've written about PLO over the last 8 or 9 years. Most of what I wrote started out based on my games, which are usually $25/$50+ with a huge element gamble because we always have antes, and sometimes even 3 blinds. Last year I adapted a lot of it to today's 6-max online games.

Slotboom y es como un cuento: "era tan bueno, que destroc el BigGame en los casinos de Viena, Amsterdam y lego en internet. Y lo hice respetando la posici Yo lo estoy leyendo y dice cosas interesantes. Lo que si parece es que es una mezcla de articulos clasicos del fulano con batallitas de algunas manos.

Another good crowd of over 100 runners. I made it about half way through it before my AA got busted by JJ . To be honest, I did not get my chips in ahead because a Jack came on flop and that is when the money got it in. DNasty was the villain here; but at least he took the chips and took the thing down.

Schepe che chiude un torneo devastante al final table dove ha eliminato nell'ordine i migliori italiani: Caciolo al settimo posto, Braccini al sesto posto e Fautario al quinto posto, tutti usciti su chiamate discutibilissime ma che alla fine ci stanno per il gioco spregiudicato dell'olandese, player online e "qualche volta live", confessa Schepe.

Yes he is back. I played with him yesterday. But I could tell by the way he played that he was no longer using a bot. He limped in with AQ, he bluffed all the way with AT high, and he was acting faster than the usual 3 or 4 seconds. After being reported, he probably received a warning, and now he is either no longer botting, or being less obvious about it.

Makes me realize how much I have to learn about PLO, and how badly I play now compared to how I could play. (Fortunately I generally play in amazing PLO games with crazy action). But I feel like with the strategies in this book, I would still beat the bad players, while also beating people who play like me.

This forum seemed to be lacking a thread of this sort, seeing as how teh pokers is more about your opponent and his tendencies than your cards. I bought holdem manager a while ago but im pretty sure PT3 is practically the same and so the same applies to both. What do you have on your HUD? I never really set mine up properly, i see videos all the time where the pro has about a gazillion stats that will never converge (and thus never be useful).

With the announcement that my great friends here at Poker News are to cover the WSOP, my mind began spinning again as to who the heck is going to pay for my visit to the big game this year? I am not yet a pro poker player, not yet, although I know it is my destiny as with most of you reading this column.

I am probably the guy with the most experience on the planet playing with online poker bots. Here is my story and review of all the products that have been on the market in the last five years. As I am writing this page my poker bot just made the final table of a 90-player tournament as the clear chip leader.

On our radar. A few new pot-limit Omaha books are going to be available in the next few months: Advanced Pot-Limit Omaha: Small Ball and Short-Handed Play is the next book of Jeff Hwang , the author of Pot-Limit Omaha - The Big Play Strategy . As its title suggests, it will cover more advanced topics than his first book: floats, SPR, preflop 3bets, small ball style are a few topics on the menu.

As many great poker players as the state of Texas has churned out, it has produced just as many fish. In fact, it can be argued that the three biggest fish the game has ever known have all come from the Lone Star State. Ranked third on this dubious list (to be continued in upcoming columns) is Rex Cauble, a "cattle rancher" from Dallas, Texas who went from broke to rich and back to broke at least three separate times in his life.

Ahem. Clearing my throat. I haven't really spoken in awhile on here. It's so much easier to state where I'm at in 140 characters or less. I have a little U2 going on the Pandora and I'm coffeed up. I should be working but I don't really feel like working today. I have to get Grace at 11:55am and would rather hang out and write this and then get her later.

This is a discussion on False Ideas: Reads, SharkScope, PokerTracker within the online poker forums, in the Strategy Forum section; If this turns into a complete crap post(which is will) im sorry. The title sound smart though. Meta game rant is a good post and ... Topic i want to discuss, i think to many people are getting caught up in reads, sharkscope, PT and although and it hurts them.

Can you make money for no risk playing poker online? Follow the progress of the blindman, as he attempts to build a bankroll playing poker online for the first time. The journey began in January 2008, with nothing more than a $10 no-deposit bonus. On Sunday I happened to be wandering past a book shop, and noticed a bunch of poker books in the bargain bin.

It will vary from person to person. Since I play mostly holdem, that would be the money maker. I play omaha on occasion, live, online and in HORSE type games. I do not dislike the game, I just prefer holdem. Omaha is a big drawing game with many players going to the flop which means larger starting pots and some looser play.

HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE: Peter Steele Blair Roger Moore National Wrestling Hall of Fame 12/15/2008 On the mat Peter Steele Blair was as tough and intimidating as anybody who's ever put on a wrestling singlet. Off the mat he put forth the same effort in regards to his fellow man and service to his country.
