Todays gems by poker SuperStar Frank Weiss !!

[luckyshades]

I don't want to give away all his secrets (or else who would buy his revolutionary new book complete with autographed glossy photo!!) but in his latest column Frank discusses advanced concepts such as;

* What to wear at the poker table "don't show up looking like a pro";

* Not giving away tells. Frank gives the example of trying not to smile when you pick up pocket aces;

* Playing "medium-ball" poker - "Playing medium-ball will never put you all in with QQ before the flop, or on the flop with just top pair. Infact, by teaching you this 'medium-ball' mentality I don't want you to ever be all in at any part in the tournament unless you have the absolute nuts."

See Duckworth, if you had of read Frank's book you wouldn't have gotten QQ all in preflop mate !!!

I think there are some valuable lessons for us all to learn here.

Thanks Frank !!!

Cant wait to try this out.I cant see how it wld be any better then my usual reaction to getting AA. Looks down at AA on the button....UTG raises 3x...2 callers ....gets to me....HUGE SMILE OF LUNAR PARK PROPORTIONS.....STANDS UP SCEAMS IN JOY LIKE ZOIDBERG DOES WHEN HE FINDS HALF A SANDWHICH IN A DUMPSTER....STARTS DANCING LIKE HAPPY GILMORE WHEN HE RIDES THE BROOM/MOP/HOSE/GOLFCLUB.........SITS BACK DOWN.......goes all in..........fold, fold, fold.

In the tradition of David Letterman's "Doctor Phil's Words of Wisdom" and the recent TwoPlusTwo PokerCast "Phil Hellmuth's Words of Wisdom", I vote for a new sticky thread titled "Frank Weiss's Words of Wisdom".

Each week we should be treated to a new quote from Australia's newest superstar poker author.

This is not an issue

I am trying to follow Frank's advice but he hasn't told us what these "nuts" are yet...
