for the poker tribers

[StarvingWriter]

Ya, okay, so the ace is upside down...hadn't realized it until recently..it's because I'm left handed, I always hold my cards upside down initially...oh well.

A few things in the article were taken out of context, but it still gets the point across.

from what I understand, this issue is supposed to be in just about every Chapters across Canada, but I have yet to see it in K-W...someone let me know if you see it on the shelves?

[AshG]

don't even know who you are, but i'm going to chapters today, so i'll mos def have a look.

i love poker, even though i have no idea how to play!

 

[C-NiCE]

Very cool man. I may be ordering some new chips from you in the very near future as my friends and I totally have the poker bug.

 

[AshG]

btw - chapter's is pretty lame with their consistency in stocking certain magazine titles.
some stores will have it regularly, some not at all.
weird but true.

thanks guys. We really need to organize a Tribe poker tourny.

heck, I know enough players now that I actually want to put the idea out there of putting together a WPT satellite game.


40 players, $300 entry fee...winner goes to WPT...obviously the more players, the less the fee.

A buddy of mine just got back from the Bellagio..

They have a 1-2 NL game with a max/minimum $100 buyin which is very awesome...you can build a huge stack, and when you bust someone, they can only buy in for another $100. He made $3100 in 4 days @ that game.

love poker, but not enough to drop a lot of money on a game. we've been trying to get a poker night going, but not enough interest, YET.

congrats on your business though, that's really wicked.

wow, that rocks!

so should you play aggressively, bullying others, or passively, and sneak up on people?

 

[HMHA]

was playing texas hold-em with a limit last night ... and walked away with a cool $10.

 

[Eclectic]

What's your website again?

I lost the link.....and my boss wants some chips I believe.

That's tough to answer without knowing the other players a little first, adjusting is important.

If you're playing rocks, then you want to loosen up a bit on your starting hand requirements.


If you're playing loose fish, it's a totally different strategy (namely I don't bet into very agressive players, I wait for them to make the wrong bet into me, then pop them)


but I don't want to give too much away..I look at all of you as potential enemies at the table

totally, at every table you play at your style should be adapted to what the others are doing

Think of starting poker as starting smoking...it's never too late to start!

 

[R4V4G3D_SKU11S]

I hate pretty much all card games. I don't know why, I just have never liked them at all.

 

[juice]

Hmm I had no idea there was a magazine, I'm going to pick it up the next time I'm at Chapters.

I host a bi weekly poker game at my house and it's always good times. It's such an interesting and fun game on so many levels.
