Birthdays, Weekends, and Answers
Tonight marks the beginning of my wife's birthday weekend. My wife has told me that she'd like me to take some time and play a bit of poker this weekend. So I'll probably hit the tables for a little bit over the next few days; however, I'm well awa...

A Night Off and a Hand Quiz

Whatever...
Have you ever had one of those sessions where nothing went your way? Pocket pairs fail to hit sets? Your pre-flop raises get shoved back in your face with large and frequent 3-bets? Continuation bets get called, raised, or check-raised? And above ...
Props, Rakeback, and Hand Quizzes
First and foremost, let me join in the praises being sung by countless poker bloggers and poker afficianados out there by saying, "Way to go Iggy!". It's great to think that one of our own (though I know I'm not in the same league as one such as Iggy...
