Life as a Vegas poker dealer (Free subscription) | 2 hours ago
I found something else that differentiates dealing off-strip in Vegas - the number of times I hand shuffle in a given day. Since the majority (not all, of course) of Vegas locals play a loose, passive style at the poker table, a good-sized bet will take down a pot fairly quickly. This leads to the hand finishing before the shuffle machine is done, and to me hand shuffling. The other night, I'm not...

Holiday week means quick hits since everyone looked my calendar and said: "hey let's schedule everything for Monday morning since we know Dave is a bright and chipper morning person!" Bright? Not so much. Chipper? Despite finishing up the Sunday Warm-up wrap up around midnight I could say my step has a certain bounce to it. Why? Doing those write-ups and various blog posts (paid or unpaid)...

The state of being too tired to do anything substantial but the time too early to go to bed without feeling like dinosaur... that's me, right now. So I'm playing a single table sit n' go on Full Tilt and chatting with you! Well, not chatting, so much, as talking at you. Well, not talking, so much, as typing at you. Anyway. So, how many of you have turned on your outdoor Christmas lights? I admit, I'm...

I am not very often posting hand histories in that blog and I don't like to moan about a bad beat but this one is really sick: And right in the next hand against the same opponent: I'm still speechless...! Well, not really. I am well aware that I am currently in a real "bad streak". I don't get any hands either live or online and if I get one it doesn't connect in any way. Oh, and in case...

Thin green line is All-in EV (actually this is slightly flawed and should be about $300 higher, because HEM has difficulty coping with pots where you go all-in pre-flop against a small stack and later go all-in against a big stack. When the final all-in occurs, it calculates your equity against both small stack and big stack, rather than calculating two separate equities. EG. I had AA vs QQ (big stack)...

According to Wikipedia: Supernovae are extremely luminous and cause a burst of radiation that often briefly outshines an entire galaxy, before fading from view over several weeks or months. It looks like Isildur1 fits that definition to a “T”. He emerged on the poker scene from nowhere. People have speculated that it’s likely blom90 (a Swedish poker player) from [...]

$2500 BC Poker Championships -- Main Event I busted out late in Day 1 of the BCPC. As in the 1k, I felt I had a fantastic table draw. I got to see tons of flops for really cheap, and a lot of people made poor post-flop decisions. We had one guy flat-call with the nuts closing action. I could go on. Maybe I'm being hard on people since this was a main event and thus a lot of people probably satellited...
