Last night I realized something. Usually when I have a bad session, it’s related to going on tilt for a bit. I know I shouldn’t do it and I always try to prevent it, but sometimes I just don’t see it coming until after I’ve lost everything I sat down at the table with. Afterwards it’s easy to look back and say, “Nick, you dumbass! Don’t let it get to you when someone hits their hand on the river.”
MLB playoffs start today. I could care less.

Over the next couple of weeks I’ll be writing some articles for a poker site.
Over the next few weeks I’ll be writing a series of articles for Professional Poker Online. They’ll go over the aspects to setting up your own home poker game. I’m pretty excited about the opportunity. The first article, published today, gives some introductory information and then discusses choosing ring games or tournaments for your home game.
A few weeks ago Jackpot Jay wrote a column asking which poker super power you’d rather have.
(1) knowing your opponents’ cards, or (2) knowing which community cards were going to show up.
It’s an interesting question. As many people wrote in response to his article, I think it all depends on the situation at hand. If I had to pick one or the other though, I’d have to go with knowing which community cards were going to show up. If you know which cards will come on the flop, turn, and river, you can decide pre-flop whether to play the hand or not. Pre-flop is probably the area where most people tend to leak in their game.
On the other hand though, if you knew your opponents’ cards, you could eventually tell their hand after you saw the community cards come up. In this situation, you’d be able to make easier decisions for the rest of the hand.
Can I have both super powers?
Yesterday my boys Tom and Jere came up for a visit. After grabbing some lunch, our first stop was the party store from some liquor. Jere and I decided to make some margaritas, so I picked up some 1800 Tequila. You just can’t go wrong getting the good stuff. It makes the margaritas so much better. We sat around watching football pretty much all day. Michigan played awesome against Indiana and Ohio State lost to Northwestern, so it was a good day in the Big Ten. You never have to really do much exciting with old friends to have a good time. There are things from childhood and high school that we always seem to bring up and will always remember.
Good Tequila…good times!
“That was just instinct. Kind of like running from the cops.” What the fuck was he thinking when he made this comment?
