Poker - the beatings will continue
June 18th, 2008
I love poker. However, what I appear to be good at is losing at poker.
Fortunately, Pokerstars is still accepting deposits from US players, despite Washington being bungholes about it.
While that continues to be the case, I’ll continue playing there.
Welp, here comes another beating.

Ahh you share my love for poker as well. My nickname comes from gambling. River. River Card. There’s an actual story. But I don’t tell people.
I never got into online poker is because I love the human element. Staring at another player, seeing him sweat when I got a good hand. The feel of the cards in your hands. The actual stretch of the cards when you see what you got. And that actual turn of that River card.
Yeah I know I’m sick.
As for HK. I like Perpozza(sp?) the only guy left, but after I saw the previews man I don’t know anymore.
I guess I gotta tune in.

sure enough, whap! out in 4th place. SNGs are brutal, especially when you’re up against an aggressive opponent.

I like live poker too. But online is fast and easy if you’re in the mood.
I absolutely loathe playing “free” poker… it’s a horrid waste of time. But even at the lowest stakes (I think it’s $0.02/$0.04 at pokerstars) there’s a whole new element.
