I've got it ! It's not a penis thing
There was no way I was giving up this pot or that pot ,who says 3c4d has no right being in the pot on a board of AcKhKs3d4h? Have I got the wisdom to let go of two pair even when I feel like I might be good or that villain is bluffing trying to get me off a weak K. Well of course I do have the wisdom but I don't need to prove it because I'm good...and then the reasoning kicks in ,I am only playing 2c/5c stakes so all in is only costing me $3 per hand so why not call ?Along with the financial justification comes the value of probability that I worked out .

The past couple of weeks have been fun-filled being summertime here in Australia. Christmas has come and gone, and so has 2011. I had a brilliant year and I'm even more excited about what 2012 will bring. Although, I couldn't help but notice the amount of people that were happy to see the back of 2011. It seemed to be quite a heavy year for many...
First I was just calling down anything chasing what I didn't know was 4 outers or 9 out flush draw type hands.then I discovered TV poker and a vague notion of percentages ,position and bluffing ,this in turn made me a knowledgeable player or so I thought.There I was happy in my existence the old ignorance is bliss without even being aware of it because I was ignorant to being ignorant which made it bliss and in turn meant I was blissfully unaware because I was ignorant to the fact that I was ignorant.
There I was playing like a demon raising in position having hands hold up ,being selective with my aggression breaking even at first and then beating the limit for at least 300 hands then the flips began to take over. We sit and play and then get challenged ,and although we are holding the goods and it is a positive EV play should we be risking 30 minutes to an hours worth of grinding on one hand? Technically yes.
For the first time ever, the PokerStars.net LAPT has come to Colombia. I've been in Medellin for four days now, and like every other Latin American country, I absolutely love it. The people are simply the friendliest in the world and I just can't help but smile as I walk around the streets. It's such a severe contrast having come here from EPT London. I did have a great time there with an unexpected (and extremely welcomed) heat wave! Everyday was no less than 26 degrees.
What a great night I had on Sunday at Crown Casino in Melbourne for the EJ Whitten Charity Poker Tournament! It was such an impressive turnout with over 300 players doing their bit to support research for prostate cancer, including some of Australia's biggest sports stars and television personalities. With the tournament being a bit of light hearted fun for charity, I really didn't focus too hard to begin with.
I den senaste rankingen av Global Poker Index så hittar vi Svensken Martin Jacobson på en hedrande 12-te placering. Då ska vi ha i åtanke att de senaste resultaten i EPT London inte är inräkande, Leder gör Jason Mercier.

Not sure what I'm gonna write about but the stats are freakin me out that's for sure pt2
The problems began with me trying to learn the mathematics of poker without knowing where to get the numbers to input into my EV calculations , so I end up reading mathematical game theory posts which were way, way above my level of understanding .Next stop the beginners toolbox ,opening up solid posts reading half or less then jumping to another post and doing the same .Boredom would set in right about the time my procrastinating ignorant gambling streak would start to itch ,so load up a wsop or poker after dark video on youtube which does wonders for my poker play(NOT).

Here I was awash in information favourite tags ,blogs ,poker sites,free poker sites,free money bonuses and the rest.Resisting the calling of the tracking programs by planning on first establishing a a sixth sense for hand reading depend on timing tells ,EV calculation and general poker telepathy, I would then study the various blogs and poker sites mentioned above to learn the inner workings of the HUD numbers .Top of the rankings here we come,technically this seemed a sound and quite wise approach to this game of ours ,in the online version anyways.
