PokerNews Exclusive: Tom Dwan Introduced as Team Full Tilt Pro (3)
924 days ago
Even before this addition and more so after, Team Full Tilt is amazing. They are by fair the best combination of players, styles, personalities and carry much class. Great addition.
FWIW, I think Dwan should go by Tom Dwan and not durrrr. Unless Full Tilt made a marketing campaign based on the name. Also, his avatar is going to look goofy or nothing like him, just saying.

PokerNews Op-Ed: The November Nine - Who's the Best for Poker? (3)
930 days ago
Honestly, my money is on Shulman and Akenhead. Shulman is a solid and proven player and comes in with a decent amount of chips. Not only is Akenhead a phenomenal player but he is running very well.
Ivey would have to have some key double ups early to really make a go at this thing.
Best for poker? Darvin Moon. It gives all the Joe Blows out there the feeling that they can make it big. More fish in the water = good for poker. The longer it takes people to realize skill > luck the better.
I really don't think he is as oblivious as people think he is. He is definitely a decent poker player. Decent skills + running like God = shark.

Schwartz is right. Poker was easy before when no one really knew how to play. I think KidPoker is a prime example of this. He may still be quite good but he is no where near as good as he is made out to be.

PokerNews Op/Ed: You Play to Win the Game (3)
975 days ago
This is a very good article. Well written. Relentless, gtfo, the goal should be to win. If you are not playing to "win" then why play at all? The definition of winning may be different for some. DrPauly says it to be actually winning tournaments or games but yours is obviously to support yourself financially which in it it self is a win.

Poker Room Review: Hard Rock Tampa, Tampa, FL (1)
892 days ago
This article is kind of old but I take some of the comments to heart. Being a 21 year old and at the time this article was written, 19 year old, from Tampa, I take it personally when you call the younger players professional "wannabe pros". There are quite a few of us who pay our bills by playing at the Hardrock and at the rooms around town. Though there are a lot of fish and a lot of wannabes, no need to generalize.
You also forgot to mention the large number of idiots that play every single day there. Tons of guys come and straight gamble which leads many people away from the $100 capped buy in. You CAN make plenty of money at the games and the variance really is not that bad if you adjust your playing style.
FWIW, your article on the Tampa Dog Track was well written but a horrid misrepresentation of that room. Currently there are about three tables that run until the night time tournament starts at which point seven tables may be running. Also, the neighborhood is terrible it is the outskirts of the worst area in Tampa. To call Lucky's Card Room the "other poker room" in Tampa is again, a horrid misrepresentation. There are far better rooms down the road in much nicer areas. Check out The Tampa Bay Downs (Silks Card Room) or Derby Lane in St. Petersburg. A hour away is Sarasota Kennel Club which houses one of, if not the, most aesthetically pleasing poker rooms in the area.
Please come review those rooms or allow me to write your reviews for the area.

Highest Stakes Yet – 'High Stakes Poker' Announces Lineup, Filming Plans (5)

Guarantee that Bandafrog is an older guy that doesn't like online poker. Dude, Tom Dwan is pretty sick. I mean did you see him on Poker After Dark? Come on now.
Now I'd like to see them play a PLO game on there. That is an action game and most of the listed players would play but we all know that Ivey, Antonius and Benyamine would own.
