Hi Everyone:

Here's part of the Introduction to or upcoming book Small Stakes No-Limit Hold ’em: Help Them Give You Their Money. We expect to have the printed book up on Amazon in less than a month:

Introduction

Let’s start this book off with a few examples. These are just a few of the many types of hands which for the live small stakes games, usually $2-$5 or less, that we play differently from the way almost all other players i

Hey folks, I'm posting here to raise awareness regarding the new proposed gambling regulation which will be of interest to any grinders/recreational players based in Ireland. The most meaningful stipulations regarding poker include the following:

1) Ban on inducements/vip schemes (decent chance this gets revised based on the wording in the debates so we might end up being all right here)
2) Max bets of €10 per game and max winnings of €3,000

Curious who you'd vote as the best player? Jason, the scrappy/hungry one, Chamath the richest, David, perhaps the most intelligent, David the most measured and GTO?

They all play with Koon to Mr. White Magic himself, so far better players than the 10/20 regs at the Wynn.

And it's 100% that they'll see this thread.

Almost every other forum has one. Let's try one here. Post your questions about poker that don't need their own thread. Engage in friendly conversation with other NVGers. Don't be mean and troll.

Listening to solve for why podcast today and got more details on the cheating Berkey had alluded to last week. Sounds like an organized cheating ring using pinhole cams in a variety of objects to pick up the cards as dealt (have to be in the one or two seat) have been at it for quite a while. Video is relayed externally (maybe even to a call center offshore?) and relayed to the player via an earpiece. Players appear to be whales making ins

WE BOUGHT A POKER ROOM

Pretty cool development, excited to see how this turns out. I wish them the best.

with so many exhibits of pure cheating / collusion / shadiness

whats the point in a randon Joe depositing money and playing

yes the avergae joe does read forums, or look online about the shadiness of each aand individular site, so how will they ever know about the cheating and shadiness that is within these walls

Pokerstars sent me a 50 question (or so) questionnaire, what will make me play play more/on their site/bonuses etc

Hard to believe the site is stupid enough to not pay out creators with huge platforms. Are there bigger problems with solvency?

I think mine's pretty decent but I dont know...

AAs to Mouth

Even if you are not perceived as a cheater. Is there much endorsement money if your name isn't Negreanu? Do top players, except Hellmuth, etc. get invited to private games and get appearance fees?

Recent suicide apparently according to Pokernews. Did anybody know him or much about his situation?

Welcome to the World Series of Poker Top Ten Tuesday thread. Having spent the last ten+ years researching and analyzing the WSOP, I'd like to share some of my favorite findings each week, with a primary focus on the bracelet events.

Some of these lists are very subjective, so have fun arguing about what's been underrated, overrated, or completely missed.

Other lists are fairly objective but will include unknown factoids and more than a few er

Got in a discussion about poker popularity and the Limit vs. No-Limit debate.

Someone replied that the "famous Chan bluff scene" was LIMIT. So that gave me the idea for this.

Nothing can beat EuroRounders, but I still think this has potential...

Hi guys,

I made this thread to inform you that 888 most likely banned 7 accounts which played at PLO25 & PLO50 tables.
I reported those accounts 2 months ago.
According to statname the bots won >$50k withon 6-7 months. (Top winners at the site)

I emailed with 888 but obv the did not officially said that I was right.
In the last Email they said:

„As we previously said, we are glad to inform you that we do have a process that pays back funds

Nate Silver has just published The Power of Thinking Like a Poker Player. Here's The New Yorker's review.

Around two/three weeks ago, pokerkingASIA froze 100's of accounts in a measure to combat bots and detect those who are colluding. Since then there has been 0 dialogue with players how long this will take or if any accounts will be unfrozen. Their 24/7 customer support links you to an email address which is impossible to get a response.

Im opening this thread for people to vent their frustrations, let others know if they've been unfroze and

In a parallel universe where Black Friday never happened because FTP and PS were operating on the up and up, what do you think the current state of poker would be?

Would your game be better? Worse? Busto? Richo? What about popularity? Talent level?

I suspect mixed games would be the new king (or queen, I’m not sure of the gender of mixed games) as NLHE would just be too advanced.

Thoughts?

What is the Greatest WSOP Achievement of All-Time? Why?

Now that the eBook is hitting the street, firing up this thread to discuss the content.
