Slot Gacor Structured Limit vs. Spread Limit

Posted on by Vernon Weaver

Why do some players make so much money playing hold’em while most players struggle or lose! A big reason is correct play before the flop, which we discussed last issue. But there’s another important reason: Good players force their opponents to take bad pot odds.

 

In gambling — no matter what the game — the person making the money in the long run is the one who has the best of the situation. This point is proved in casinos every day. When you bet on the double sixes on the craps table and take odds of 30 to 1 — when the real odds of rolling double sixes are 35 to 1 — you are taking the worst of the proposition. Over the long run, your money will end up in the casino’s pocket.

 

The same holds true in a poker game, When your opponents take the wrong odds to outdraw you, over the long run their money ends up in your pocket. Poker is all about getting your opponents to take bad odds. Most of the errors bad players make involve taking too many cards off when the pot is not offering them the right odds to hit their hand.

 

You will make money in the long run when your opponents repeatedly make this type of error — even though sometimes they get lucky and hit their hand. Just as the casino likes the craps shooter who bets the hard-way twelve, even though the shooter occasionally gets lucky and rolls the double sixes, you have to like the action of players who consistently draw to long-shot hands when the pot is small relative to the odds of hitting the draw.

 

In both structured-limit and spread-limit hold’em games, a high proportion of your opponents will routinely …

“The Malihowski’s put fried onions on their oatmeal!” Mom was sounding off at me again for not eating my oatmeal. What did she expect? Who would eat oatmeal that didn’t have any sugar on it? It was during World War II. Sugar was rationed and Mom was using saccharin, the original sugar substitute, to sweeten my oatmeal. I had no idea how she knew that the Malihowski’s put fried onions on their oatmeal. She knew I hated fried onions and was probably making it up, thinking I would be happy with the saccharin if fried onions was the only other alternative. Mom never looked me in the eye when she was fibbing. I didn’t know what a ‘tell’ was at the time, or how to take advantage of it, but this time Mom definitely was fibbing. And it made me mad. So I screamed. I’d turned seven two weeks before and the screaming, which had been perfectly acceptable behavior until now, set Mom off. When I saw her reach for the catty-nine tails which she kept hanging on a hook in the pantry, I made a beeline for the front door with Mom in hot pursuit.

None of this has anything to do with poker, but it sets my mood for the day on which I played penny-ante for the first time. I’d watched my older brothers play in the basement of Hennessey’s Candy Store on the corner of what is now 12th and Broadway Streets, in Poke Hollow, Pennsylvania, where I had grown up, but they told me I couldn’t get into the game until I was eight years old.

UFA Poke Hollow had eight streets, except for the dirt roads that led to individual homes, but the town council thought that having a street with double digits in …

A Poker Cop ligaz11 Mystery

Posted on by Vernon Weaver

 

 

 

Every hotel has a Pimp. Someone not connected to the hotel who, for cash, can supply its guests with “special services.” The Majestic’s Pimp is named Sonny – a wretched little pervert who specializes in human weakness: Want drugs? Sonny. Want sex? Sonny. Want sex and drugs? Sonny. Want a room, falsely registered, to which all of the above will be delivered? Guess who?

 

Red Penny and I walk into The Majestic Bar, Sonny’s hang-out, where, in a dark back booth we find Sonny, an effeminate little man, sitting in-between two very young blond girls who are wearing little enough for one. “Christina, Brittany,” Red Penny says to the two under-aged prostitutes, “it’s way past your bedtime. Get up and get out.”

 

They look to Sonny, who says to them, “Go, my darlings, go.” Sonny’s bodyguard, an ex-con named Luther Mope, who’s specialty is murder for hire, steps in directly in front of us. Sonny waves him away. Red Penny and I take the two seats on either side and slide up close to Sonny. “Talbot! Penelope! Together? What strange bedfellows. Can I rent you two a room?” Sonny giggles. “Just tell Sonny what you want. Anything you’ve ever needed. Everything you’ve ever wanted. I’m your guy.” I lean close to Sonny, “A Saturday night special was used to murder someone in the Poker Room. I think you supplied the gun.”

 

“Murder? Gun?” Sonny starts to whine, “I don’t know anyth . . . Oomph!” Red Penny has violently shoved her Smith & Wesson into Sonny’s lower belly. Luther emerges from the shadows and moves towards the table. The metallic click tells Sonny Red Penny has pulled the trigger back. Sonny stops Luther. Red Penny whispers, “Sonny, sweetie, Talbot has some questions for you. …

Sports Betting – Total or over/under bets

Posted on by Vernon Weaver

 

A total wager is a bet on the combined number of points scored in the game by both teams. You can bet on whether the actual number of total points scored is over or under the line posted. The total points scored includes points scored in overtime.

 

You can also bet whether the combined number of points or goals scored in the game will be over or under the total set by the oddsmaker. For example, if the total is 32 and you believe that the combined points scored will exceed that number, you would bet over 32.

 

This is really another form of straight bet and the payoff is also $10 for every $11 bet. Again, if the total is exactly on the line, it is a push or tie and your original bet is refunded.

 

Sports Betting – The Moneyline

Baseball games and some other sports events are handled a little differently than football, basketball and hockey. Oddsmakers don’t set a point spread for baseball games. Instead, they set a moneyline. The moneyline gives the odds that one team will beat another.

 

There is a different moneyline total for either side on a moneyline bet, a negative side (the favorite) and a positive side (the underdog). For example, Seattle -170 LA +150 means that Dallas is the favorite and for every $170 you bet on Dallas, you win $100 if they win.

 

For every $100 you bet on Washington – the underdog – you win $150 if they win. By offering different odds for each team, the sportsbook is able to balance action on both teams.

 

Here’s another example. The Atlanta Braves may be favored over the Chicago Cubs by 150. The customer must lay $150 in order to win $100; …

Brian Cullingworth Interview about about Casino

Posted on by Vernon Weaver

CHUCK – What’s your role in the internet gambling business, Brian?

BRIAN – I have several roles in the industry. My primary role is as head of a company which monitors competition, interprets news, technology and trends in the business and keeps clients ahead of the pack in terms of strategic knowledge. Another division of the company carries out more “traditional” internet marketing consulting on such issues as cost-effective creation of marketing plans, techniques, campaigns, sites, banners and the like. Then I am a part-owner and marketing director of an online casino called Casino Jetset. I am currently getting involved in a voluntary capacity with the Online Players Association, in which I have a strong belief and I have just started a new webcast project with Mike Craig over at CasinoGazette.

Tell us a bit about Casino Jetset.

I have been involved with this casino from its earliest days. I was a founder member of the team which planned, built and launched Jetset almost two and a half years ago – that’s a lifetime in the nascent and fast-moving world of internet gambling! I was commissioned by a Canadian public company which wanted to get involved in the burgeoning online gambling business but did not have the expertise, so myself and a colleague did some very intensive research and put 12 quality casinos online over a space of six months immediately following the R & D program. I then stayed on for a further year to get the marketing in place and before returning to my consultancy I was offered a share in Jetset by the licencees.

I’m clearly biased but right from the concept layouts I preferred Jetset to the other casinos we put up. For me it has a well executed mod jetstream theme with lots of information …

Two Suite Stories

Posted on by Vernon Weaver

A prominent Irish player took a suite in the Ritz during the Barcelona tournament of the European Poker Tour. He was watching the final of the EPT and got very unlucky, because he’d had a few drinks and then Tall Ed from Amsterdam won a huge pot in the Omaha cash game and very generously started sending around free drinks for everybody who was watching the tournament. And then Tall Ed very generously did it again; and again; and again. So, the Irish player finally made his way back to the Ritz and made it to his suite, but woke up the next morning about a yard away from the king-size bed, hung over and cold on the floor, and about to face a large bill for the privilege of sleeping in the room, to boot. Well, he’s been claiming it was a bad beat, because had he taken a regular room, he would have made it to the bed, as the bed in a standard room is ever so much closer to the door.

 

That leads straight into another suite story, and this one happened during the EPT event in Dublin. Kevin O’Connell uncharacteristically took a huge suite at the Conrad Hotel, and lots of people were very impressed because he had a grand piano in the middle of his suite. So, we were having a few pints in the cellar bar of the Merrion Hotel and it was mentioned to Kevin that this might be a little extravagant, because neither he nor his suitemate could play the piano. But Kevin replied that he couldn’t play Omaha, either, and that had never stopped him from sitting down in an Omaha game.

Terror Bill Limits Judi Slot Online Gambling, Too

Posted on by Vernon Weaver

WASHINGTON — Osama bin Laden is not, according to news reports, a terribly big fan of Western vices.

Nor has there been any reliable confirmation that last month’s suicide-hijackers, who completed the bloodiest terrorist attack in American history, were habitual gamblers.

But that didn’t stop the House Financial Services committee from voting 62-1 on Thursday for an “anti-terrorism” bill that limits Internet gambling.

In the words of Rep. Marge Roukema (R-New Jersey): “We’ve heard testimony from the FBI, the Department of Justice, and law enforcement that there is a clean nexus, a connection, between Internet gambling and money laundering of terrorism activities.”

The measure has been dubbed the “Financial Anti-Terrorism Act” (PDF), and it prohibits financial institutions from accepting credit cards, electronic transfers and checks used in online gambling. Another part of the 121-page bill gives the Customs Service more power to inspect packages sent through the mail.

While all but one of the committee voted for the bill with the gambling prohibitions included, legislators did spend some time arguing about it first.

Rep. Michael Castle (R-Delaware), who unsuccessfully tried to remove the language through an amendment, said: “My concern is we’re imposing an obligation on financial companies to check virtually all of their statements, especially customers who deal with websites.”

Castle’s amendment, which would have deleted almost all of the gambling-related sections, failed by a vote of 25-37.

The vote wasn’t a partisan one: Some Republicans applauded Castle’s proposal, saying that otherwise the bill would slap an undue burden on banks and credit card firms, while others were eager to hand more power to police.

Rep. Jim Leach (R-Iowa) lauded additional restrictions on online gambling, saying: “What we’re talking about is an illegal act today, and we want the enforcement of current laws today.”

Democrats were similarly split, with …

Morata makes his Dominoqq Online Terbaik mark for Spain

Posted on by Vernon Weaver

The linesman signalled an infraction by Cristiano Ronaldo who was in an offside position as the ball sailed over him to Bale.

 

Luis Suarez’s poacher finish decided the game and came from a route one launch from Dani Alves, an apparent confirmation that tiki-taka is a thing of the past.

 

That system of course hinged upon the magic triangle of Andres Iniesta, Messi & Xavi, which has been supplanted by the ‘MSN’ of Messi, Suarez and Neymar.

 

Suarez played as a traditional No.9 against Real and it paid off, but it came at the expense of isolating Neymar, who but for one Dominoqq Online Terbaik exciting dribble, was comparatively peripheral.

 

Yet the Catalan fans had little to gripe about and have been on a victory lap, reveling in their four-point lead. El Mundo Deportivo hailed Gerard Pique’s imperious defensive shift, christening him ‘Piquenbauer’!

 

The title is now definitively in Barça’s own hands, but if there is a silver lining for Real, it is that they have a slightly easier run-in.

 

Six out of their last eleven games are at home, compared to five for Barça, who also have to travel to Atletico Madrid, while Real’s hardest trip is to Sevilla. Both have to play Valencia at home.

 

Nou Camp legend Johan Cruyff was as barbed as ever, opining without a hint of irony, “It is fantastic to win a game when you are playing badly.”

 

* The Camp Nou will host the Copa del Rey final on the 30th of May despite the fact Barcelona will effectively be playing a home game against Athletic Bilbao.

 

Real Madrid declined to offer the Bernabeu for the final, which seemed rather churlish but in character for owner Florentino Perez.

 

Two hours of negotiations …
