Most of the tables in the Bellagio poker room spread Texas Hold’em, which is the most popular game in poker. It is a bit pricey for players who want to play in this upscale casino. The lowest NL Hold’em table is 2/5 and limit is 4/8. However, there are a few tables that spread Omaha and stud which are usually higher limit games Read more…

Reading the board in Texas Hold ‘Em is easy. The key is reading the players. The first thing you need to learn about poker is that the best players play their opponents, not the cards. One trick that you should learn right away is to watch your opponents’ facial expressions when the flop comes out – not the flop. Be sure to do this discreetly. If you make it obvious, they will try to throw you off with acting. Pretend you’re watching the flop, but really watch them out of the corner of your eye.

It’s easy to tell if someone hit the flop. They don’t think anyone is watching them at this point in the hand. Therefore, they’re not acting. If they hit the flop, you will often see them smirk or become more interested. If they missed the flop, you will often see their lips move toward a frown. They will quickly erase this facial expression, so you have to focus. If you miss these tells, or if they’re not available, there are still other ways to read your opponents.

Any player who best quickly after the flop is either protecting a decent hand or bluffing. They don’t have a monster because if they did they would take their time to make you think they’re contemplating a fold. If any player raises another player on the flop, it’s a sure

I was playing Texas Hold ‘Em online a few weeks ago. The table was full and one player, identified as “Bulge,” had established himself as the table captain. Two hours into play, I had yet to see decent cards that benefited me. I saw plenty of great cards compliments of players who defeated me time and time again. Bulge showed pocket aces five times in 120 minutes!

I considered trying my luck at another table but was too frustrated by Bulge’s constant bullying to leave. I just wanted one legitimate shot at bankrupting him. I set a limit of five more hands at the table to see if I’d get my shot at defeating Bulge.

Ten hands later, I got my first pocket pair: deuces. I’m almost embarrassed Read more…

Playing Texas Hold’em successfully requires making decisions throughout a hand. These decisions are related to your hand’s strength and the strength of your opponnents’ hands. One of the most important choices you will make is whether or not to play a hand based on the value of your initial two cards, known as the hole cards. You can save a lot of money by avoiding hands with cards that have little or no chance of winning. Knowing when to fold your hole cards before the flop and simply wait for the next hand is a key to success.

Starting hands such as A-A and K-K are obviously good hands and should be played. What about bad starting hands? While any hand can rarely lead to flopped quads (four of a kind), there are hands Read more…

or a beginner, online poker can be fun, challenging, and frustrating all at the same time! To make the game more enjoyable, as a beginner you should avoid making these common mistakes:

1. Beginners want to stay in the game on every hand, no matter what cards they are dealt. Let’s face it, not every hand is a winner! If you are dealt a two of clubs and a nine of diamonds, the smart thing to do is to fold. Don’t rely on a “lucky” flop to make a losing hand into a winning hand.

2. A player new to the game of poker may not fully understand what cards dealt pre-flop have the potential to produce a winning hand, and what cards are probably losers. You may learn through experience, researching the topic on the internet, or taking advice from those who are experienced players.

3. A beginning player must Read more…

Is gambling better than have sex? Some people equate money to power, money can give you a lot of power. But it can also strip you of the power if you lose it, some gamblers would rather gamble than have sex. Well not me, I want it all.

I have had some of my deepest and most intense orgasms after winning big at a casino or a poker table, there is something about money and sex that go together. Money is like the aphrodisiac.

The first man I married was over 30 years older than me, I was young and a bit of a bimbo when it came to men, he was a gambler, distinguished and loved Blackjack.

He liked to have me around because I looked good on his arm and I knew how to gamble. Sex was very plain & we did not have it very often.

But the gambling was sensational!

There is a balance you have to achieve. Too much of the same thing becomes boring. Can you imagine winning every hand of Texas Holdem or
Blackjack or poker table you played? Can you imagine having sex 24 hours a day? Hell, I did miss the action in the casino.

I can remember the first time I associated sex with gambling, I was eighteen years old and at my boyfriend Big Mike’s house, we were all alone as his parents had gone out of town to a funeral. We were playing Blackjack for pennies and then Big Mike asked me if I wanted to play strip poker.

I agreed – after all, Big Mike was not called Big Mike for nothing. This was the first and only time I ever cheated at gambling. I was a much better strip poker player than Big Mike, but I never won a hand and he had me naked in minutes, what happened next I will leave to your imagination.
