Fruitless: Developing Poker Strategies, Waiting For Results. Tuesday, January 26, 2010. Superfluous Rush Poker Commentary. A ton has already been said on the topic of the new Rush Poker format on Full Tilt, but it's still in it's early infancy, so it's hard to imagine that a whole lot has really been figured out. So far I can say that there is a lot that I really like about it. Seems reasonable to think that they will be tighter, but whether they are tougher remains to be seen. Links to this post. BB bet...

Fruitless: Developing Poker Strategies, Waiting For Results. Monday, October 5, 2009. NLHE Online: $65.27. And after my one day tourney run netted me $1K , I actually made my first poker money withdrawal on the year, yanking out 8 benjamins, which I will probably take directly to the live house games to squander! It's a vicious circle. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Surly Poker Gnome. SB - Small Blind. BB - Big Blind. UTG - Under The Gun. MP - Middle Position. BTN - Button (Dealer).

Fruitless: Developing Poker Strategies, Waiting For Results. Sunday, September 27, 2009. About That 3rd Tourney. So I left off the last post when I was still playing a $4K guaranteed rebuy PLO tourney on Friday, and I haven't gotten a chance to report on the results. Well, here's how it ended:. I'm pretty sure you won't hear me talking about how upset I am that I didn't win this thing. 2nd place is pretty nice, and so is the $1K prize. Just inside of the money, with 14 players left, I played this hand:.

Card-nal Knowledge: Pre-WSOP Rebound

Fruitless: Developing Poker Strategies, Waiting For Results. Thursday, June 10, 2010. I've been gone for a number of reasons, but I've been playing plenty. So why no posts? First, I think I just needed a break, in order to take my limited free time and put it all towards play. The third reason I took a break was because I had an awful month in March and got burnt out. I have since plugged some leaks and turned things around. My confidence is high and I'm really enjoying the PLO action. All 3 options are ...

Card-nal Knowledge: Bloated Pot, Scary Flop
http://card-nalknowledge.blogspot.com/2010/02/bloated-pot-scary-flop.html
Fruitless: Developing Poker Strategies, Waiting For Results. Tuesday, February 9, 2010. Bloated Pot, Scary Flop. An interesting spot came up twice in a short session last night - after 4-betting a single-suited AAxx PF, the flop comes monotone and my opponent ships into me. So gross, given the pot odds and the potential to be drawing close to dead. In the first spot, the pot was actually 3-way:. Full Tilt Pot-Limit Omaha, $0.25 BB (6 handed) - Full-Tilt. Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com. MP calls $1...

Fruitless: Developing Poker Strategies, Waiting For Results. Friday, June 18, 2010. Poker has a way of setting you straight right when you start to feel good about your game and that you've figured things out. Thus, I shouldn't have been surprised that my comeback post. With its dangerous expressions of confidence, would mark the beginning of a nasty stretch. Back to counting down the hours to my Vegas flight tonight. Links to this post. Wednesday, June 16, 2010. I'm definitely not playing any more PLO b...
