		Inside the Tour, #88: More on Bluffing April 15, 2008		Bluffing. What does it mean? How important is it? Can one be successful without bluffing? Unnnh… well, no. According to Dennis, you have no chance to be a winner in no-limit hold'em without bluffing. When people talk about... more

Of course, one does not... more


		Inside the Tour, #86 — Inside 'The Psychology of Poker' March 11, 2008		Psychology. It's a subject none of us give enough importance. Furthermore we don't want to do the work to look at ourselves and see where we fit into poker's panoply of players. For this niche, though, there is one book that... more


		Inside the Tour, Vol. 85: Inside 'The Book of Bluffs' February 25, 2008		I have hundreds of poker books in my library and most of them are not very good, in my opinion. I am trying to recommend a few good books to put on your shelves, though, and that has made me re-examine some titles that had gone into... more


		Inside the Tour — 84: Poker Majors and Big Slick February 05, 2008		I was reading through the columns I had missed of "Sexton's Corner" here on Pokernews and came across, from one of Tom's earlier columns, his list of suggested majors.

		Inside the Tour — 82: ElkY and the Dragon January 18, 2008		I just got back from the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure in the Bahamas. Every time that I go to this event I start out with a prejudice — I really like the Bahamas and all tournaments that might be held there, and it is behind only... more


		Inside the Poker Tour — 81: Live from APPT Sydney December 28, 2007		I have to fire myself as a 'sweater', as I was witness to the following hands: Late in the third Day One (500-1000 blinds, with a 100 ante) I was standing behind a table which included Hiroshi Shimamura of Japan and Gary Lenz... more


		Inside the Poker Tour — 80: Bubble Time in Sydney December 21, 2007		When should hand-for-hand play be enforced? The question came up at Sydney's Star City Casino, recently, at a preliminary event, one in which I played. We did not go hand-for-hand in Event #1 although 30th paid AU $975. As it unfolded... more


		Inside the Poker Tour — 79: Poker Strategy Guide, Part 1 December 14, 2007		Another book that I believe is a must-read for the serious all-around poker player is the Full Tilt Poker Strategy Guide, edited by Michael Craig and published by Warner Books of New York, 2007. In reviewing this, I had to go... more


		Inside The Poker Tour – 78 Show And Tell December 07, 2007		Howard Lederer never seems to tire of saying that poker is a game of imperfect information - and I have to agree with him. We live in an information age, so why can't players just throw their hands away and go on to the next... more


		Inside the Tour #77: The Rise of Anna Wroblewski November 23, 2007		The internet has brought us many things, among them the emergence of a new generation of female poker players.

		Inside the Tour #76: 'Kill Everyone' November 10, 2007		As readers likely know, I have given out bad marks for many poker book efforts in the past. Let me spend a few columns talking about books that I do like. Let's start with a new book that I predict will be an instant classic-- Kill Everyone... more


		Inside The Tour – 75 – Same Game – Very Different Forms June 21, 2007		Let me address an issue that seems to confuse people no matter how many times it is spoken about (this is a response to an email query). Every limit and every form of hold'em is entirely different.... more


		Inside the Poker Tour – 74 – A Tale of Two Barcelonas May 30, 2007		The heads-up no-limit hold'em tournament played in Barcelona was started seven years ago in Austria by John Shoreman and is directed ably enough by Thomas Kremser. The field is restricted to 128 players... more


		Inside the Poker Tour - 73 – A Few Big Hands May 22, 2007		They say that you only see one sixth of an iceberg above the waterline. When you are playing poker that is what you get—a hint. Small clues abound, but how much do you really see? The mathematician... more
