    Poker4ever – New U.S Poker Room

     Sunday, December 19th, 2010

    Are you looking for a new poker room for U.S. players? Poker4ever is a small room so if you are into multi-tabling uncommon games like Stud 8b this isn’t the room for you. Poker4Ever is small but has more than enough traffic for micro-medium stakes players.  The thing you will love most about Poker4ever is the promotions. If you are the type of player that makes $100-$200 in deposits per month and likes to be rewarding for playing you will like this U.S. poker room.

    They offer rake races that award $2,500 each month.  The top 25 players each month will win part of a $2,000 prize pool. They award this money based on who earned the most Poker Points. You may not have the time or desire to play enough to finish in the top 3 but it pays the top 25 and since the room is small this is easily doable.

    If you like Omaha poker or Omaha HL you can easily win that rake race. Only a handful of players actually play Omaha poker and the top 5 players will win part of the $250 rake race jackpot.

    They also have another separate rake race for NL Holdem players. If that doesn’t float your boat you can play in our $1,000 new depositor freerolls or the $25 freerolls which run 4X per day.

    They even have a $5,000 freeroll at the end of every month. The first deposit bonus is a 100% match up tp $150.  You must enter the Poker4ever bonus code P4E2011.

    Online Casino Vs Landbased Casino

     Saturday, March 27th, 2010

    In between practicability and authenticity lies vast disparity. Due to the technological enhancement, we now experience what we see in our everyday life putting their replacements in the cyberspace as well.

    Poker playing is one of them.  I perfer to play Baccarat at the UB Poker Room & Casino.  UB.com Poker is a huge poker room with 75 casino games.Cyberspace poker games made their headlines on the websites glittering bright after getting second-hand treatment from the conventional casino cafes. The feasibility of cyberspace poker games such as to have them in our computer within a friendly atmosphere at our own time frame gives internet poker games its due place on the internet, overcoming the land-based poker casinos.

    Though huge difference is seen in between playing poker on a computer and a poker gambling in a land-based casino, the game rules remain alike. If you prefer to play poker online you should check out Rush Poker at Full Tilt Poker.  They offer awide range of normal games and som specialty games like 7-Game Mix Poker, Horse poker and Stud – 7 Card Poker.

    Benefits: In addition to having control over the sites you are going to play, there are other facilities that can be gained by playing online. Unlike conventional casino places that are situated very far from each other’s or near to the next, as there is no rule that essentially say that they need to be located each opposite the other, one can be able to change their present arena of playing if they play in cyberspaces.

    Actual casino playing does not give you extra winning odds, while you can gain the help of many poker institution online that grants free of charge all the necessary advices, pros and cons of the game giving out as many as effective games plans of poker playing in advance before the real money take its due place on online games.

    Deciding your own speed: One of the main dissimilarity in between cyberspace poker games and the land-based casino poker game is the speed therein and the prices of the online game. When a player opts to play at cyberspace, he or she has the chance of having as many as tables at one time. This is impossible to achieve in actual casino game where the gambler is confined to only one table. What should take more attention of the wanna be players is that their odds of folding a game are enhanced in magnitude in a very large scale by playing cyberspace poker games than when they play at land-based casinos.

    When playing cyberspace poker games, a player is only a click away from gaining extra money on his or her account. In addition, the players online are able to gamble in training spaces that have no rule of charging cash. The conventional casino places reject this option as well. The teaching poker websites are immensely supportive to apprentice who are reluctance to spend cash in unknown territory just because their inadequacy in the play.

    One more advantage of cyberspace poker playing is that there is only insignificant limitation related to the online game whereas that limitation is very high at land-based poker games. In addition to above, a player can opt to play a lower value as low as a cent on cyberspace when compared to the offline game where it is impossible to find such a place in actual casino places.

    Poker Odds Calculator

     Monday, March 22nd, 2010

    Calculating poker odds can be easy for some games and difficult for others. The key to calculating poker odds properly is having a solid understanding of the math behind the poker game you are playing. In 7 Card Stud HL for example. If the other player has 4 low cards on the board, it is safe to assume that he will qualify for the low hand. If you do not have a better possible low hand or at least a high pair, you should fold.

    2-7 Triple Draw is another game that requires the use of an odds calculator. There really isn’t a reliable odds calc out there for 27 Triple Draw though. You will have to calculate the odds, including the pot odds, in your head.

    If he draws 1 card on the last draw and you do the same, you might want to call his final bet even if you caught a high card. The odds of him pairing up or catching a higher cards as well as the pot odds, will indicate that calling is +EV in most cases.

    My Triple Draw Poker Experience

     Sunday, April 5th, 2009

    I was playing poker at Pokerstars tonight and I noticed a game that I’ve never seen before. It’s called “8-game poker” and its a mixed poker game.  I have played H.O.R.S.E poker before so I figured I’d give it a chance. As luck would have it I sat down at the start of the rotation and it was a game I’ve never played before. Its called 27 Triple Draw and its unlike any poker game I have ever played before. Well, thats actually not true. I grew up playing five card draw and I have played lowball poker games before and 2-7 Triple Draw is somewhat of a mix between the two. Basically its like playing five card draw only you want to get the  lowest hand possible. You also get to draw cards 3 times which takes a bit of getting used to. Aces are always high and straights and flushes count so the nut hand would be 2-3-4-5-7.

    Well, once I realized that I was a little out of my league I did some super quick Googling and learned what I just wrote above. Each rotation only consists of 6 hands and despite the fact that I lost a decent amount of money in the first few hands while I was learning the game when it switched over to the next game I wanted to keep playing triple draw! I left the 8-game poker table and sat down at one of the 27 triple draw tables. I must have played for 3 hours straight, thats how addicting the game is. Despite the fact that I was a total newbie I managed to walk away ahead $75.

    I may still be a rookie at 27 Triple Draw but compared to the other players I might as well have been a pro. A couple of the players at my table didn’t seem to have a clue what a good hand is. They would raise and end up drawing 3 which is totally stupid.  Hand selection is one of the most important factors when playing Triple Draw. I play on playing that game a lot in the future. The main appeal for me is the fact that I control what my hand is. In most poker games the only choices you make is bet or fold. In Triple Draw you build you hand via the 3 draws.

    For anyone that wants to check it out as far as I know the only room that offers it and has a lot of traffic is Pokerstars, which accepts U.S. players. They offer all new players a $50 bonus.
