Everybody had a lot of fun. We will be doing it again next month!

I was doing OK, until I lost control & made a stupid move. It was worse than a bad move - a bad move is something that makes sense after the fact, but didn't turn out right - After not catching any cards for a while, I tried to defend my blinds well past the point of reason.

There were a lot of interesting plays, be sure to take notes of UncleWaldo's demonstration of excellent big stack poker. He had the chips and kept pressing and pressing.

See you next tournament.

I played very tight while players are being knocked out, then got more and more agressive as the table emptied.

It wasn't a switch that I flipped, but more of a gradual change. I was able to steal with poor hands, and punish people when I had a good hand.

I like to free tournaments because it lets me practice particular parts of my game - things I would not want to do with real money. This tournament I played every connector and any ace.

Every major poker site has a free area that allows you to try things like:

Ignore your cards...play the board
Only play junk cards...never show anything good
Only play when you have the nuts
Push the top ten hands to the end
and on and on and on

Ignore your cards...play the board
Only play junk cards...never show anything good
Only play when you have the nuts
Push the top ten hands to the end
and on and on and on

Be sure to keep track of the results so you can analyze them. Here is the link to the spreadsheet I filled out during the podcast Results Spreadsheet

As you can expect there was lots of action as three crazy players were knocked out on the first hand. Very ineresting betting at the end.

Here is the itunes link - please leave a comment if you get a chance.

I did my best to fix it. As you can probably imagine, I won't be using this software any more.

This is a speed tournament I played recently at PokerRoom.

I like to play speed tournaments because it lets me practice my push game. Blinds go up every three minutes.

A lot of tight players have two gears, tight and kamikaze - nothing in between. You should have at least 4 gears: 1. Tight 2. Semi-Aggresive 3. Aggresive 4. Kamikaze

A professional poker player is able to play in any gear at any time. This is the biggest difference between a great player and a pro.

As you can expect there was lots of action because of the blind structure.

This tournament was full of very strange plays.

The outcome of this tournament is very suprising. When I watched it again, I couldn't believe it.

I felt like such a loser with what I said at the end of the tournament....maybe I was just tired.
