The past and the present of Online Poker

admin — Fri, 08 May 2009 03:14:15 +0000

Poker has been attracting many people all over the world to try their luck and skills pitted against one another. It has surged as one of the most popular table games among others. Poker has been around for centuries now, and people still swear by it.

Online poker has become people’s favorite form of entertainment online and climbed popularity charts owing to its easy access and rewarding nature. Online gambling has tasted success within a very short period, and people have patronized the game of poker to great extent.

The online gambling industry in America is well worth over $10 million and targets to reach around $100 million within a few years. The online poker came into light in 1998 through a small online poker room by the name planet poker, which was sole online poker room for quite sometime. Online poker provided people the ease of operation through their homes and features that casino could not provide.

After planet poker, came the paradise poker that soon became the leader in the pack of online poker. A year later poker spot was launched which became the first firm to offer tournaments and organize some for its players. Some time later, an American travel channel organized a world poker tour that changed the scenario of people interested in online gambling. It also made famous some of the big names in poker, including Tom Dwan.

Credit for the rise of poker goes to the fact that it is available 24/7 and players can choose an array of poker games like stud poker, draw poker and community card poker according to their own preference just with the help of a computer and internet connection.

LOL.

Teh Jinx Poker, a poker site of a young gun showing us his poker results has some sad news today — Teh Jinx Poker is broke. Apparently he went on a bad run on high stakes, which ended up costing him his $1550 bankroll in one session.

Bankroll management?

I can’t feel bad for people overplaying their money…

Teh Jinx makes Straight Flush

In the final round of a 4-player heads-up No Limit Hold’em tournament, Teh Jinx Poker hit the magical straight flush to beat his opponent to the ground…

Why that guy called him down with nothing but a five of diamonds, I don’t get it, but I’m sure Teh Jinx isn’t complaining about the quick $33 he made.

Board
Teh Jinx showed and won with a straight flush, Seven to Jack

Not too shabby!

Tony G flops a Royal Flush

admin — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 20:48:15 +0000

Not a bad flop for Tony G’s KdJd, flopping a Royal Flush. The only way Tony could have seen any action in this one was with a ten or a nine on the river, too bad for him (and luckily for Patrik) that wasn’t the case…

Sam Farha Sucks Out

Sammy Farha is by far the funniest poker player alive. He’s so awesome. He knows he’s trailing the Queens but he’s aware of the cameras so he keeps his act together and hits running hearts to keep him alive in the WSOP tournament.

I do feel bad for the guy with the QQ, but hey, it’s SAMMY!

Quitting Poker for a Month

admin — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 04:36:46 +0000

Alright it’s final. Today I had yet another horrid session of Pot Limit Omaha at the local casino — so bad that I really decided to quit poker for a full month.

What did it was the second ONE-OUTER of one night… It went like this:

I start off with 45TA, two spades (A4). I flop T54 and two spades and bet pot. I get called in one spot. I make the nut flush on the turn (7s) and bet pot. I get called. I hit the ten on the river to make me a full boat and I bet pot. I get raised and call. Guy flips over T76J no spades…. WHAT THE F*CK WAS HE THINKING?

He later said he knew I had the flush and knew he had to make a full house to win, but that he assumed he would get paid off if that happened.

SIGH.
