Go DoubleAs, GO!

[Drowned at the River] Double As is the current chip leader of WSOP Event #43, another $1500 No-Limit Hold ‘Em event… I know that those of us that played a WSOP event, and those of us that only wish we were playing in WSOP events are now living vicariously through DoubleAs.

Leaving Las Vegas

[The Jeff Pulver Blog - Notes, comments and observations] While I was at the WSOP, I enjoyed the opportunity of meeting and seeing many of the people who are part of the professional poker tour as well as meeting people who came out the 2005 WSOP with the dream of winning it all and dealing with the consequences afterwards. Congratulations again to Scott Kargman for making into “the money” in WSOP event #43.

"Busted Out" of the Main Event of the 2005 World Series of Poker (WSOP)

[The Jeff Pulver Blog - Notes, comments and observations] While it feels great to know that I was lucky enough to last in the Main Event longer than many poker professionals, having tasted what it feels like playing in the Main event of the World Series of Poker, I know that I will do what I can to play in the main event in 2006.

damn you pokerroom

[the virtual nuts] I finally cleared the $150 bonus that I had, but it cost me about $350 to clear it! I have another $10 and $100 bonus sitting there, but I’m going to take some time away from pokerroom.

Images from the 2005 World Series of Poker - Game #42 (Day 1a)

[The Jeff Pulver Blog - Notes, comments and observations] I searched the crowded tables looking for a few familiar faces and with the help of the ESPN camera crews, I found a few of the tables where some of the better well known poker players were working on building up their chip stacks.

Bait

[Steal The Blinds] Bait I finally decided to try PokerTracker. It’s installed and configured, and I am about 100 hands into the 1000 hand trial. Even before installing PT, I knew my game needed a lot of work.

[Missives from a Degenerate Underachiever] Sklansky in TPFAP and Harrington in HOH both stress the need to be vigilant of situations where you really would like a free or cheap card/showdown. Check/call or check/check can be a viable strategy for any street if your hand is vulnerable.

Non Poker Tracker Sites

[ 2 Hole Cards Foldem More Than You Holdem] I’ve found plenty of bad players in my travels around the online poker world, so Party isn’t the only site where the fish go for a swim. I’ve been impressed by some of the other software out there as well.

One Night in Atlantic City

[Adventures in Troubleshooting] My friends Mike and Ben picked up a sweet deal on a place up here for the July 4th Weekend, so I figured I'd give it a go. Poker's something I enjoy a great deal, and usually, I do pretty alright at it, so I figured, take out $300, play some cards and see what happened.

[Missives from a Degenerate Underachiever] Also, due to the way I have Poker Tracker set up, I'll be a day "ahead" throughout (I make my days start at noon because I'm usually playing through midnight). For example, the night of July 1 was actually Day 2.

[From Guppy To Shark] So, needless to say, I'm not playing winning poker. Not quite sure what, exactly my problem is, but I think it might be that I'm playing way too tight/passive.
