I’m 17 and I was introduced to poker at the age of 15. During that summer I had lost $80 playing with my friends. I found it really fun and started to get into. I started watching poker on TV all the time and have started to get better. When I was 16 I decided that there wasn’t anything in this world that I would like to do more than play poker professionally. Today I go to school wearing poker shirts(please don’t laugh lol) and when people ask me why I wear them everyday I say, I love poker, I’m gonna go pro. Some say I’m dumb others believe in me but I know that I will be a pro no matter what anyone says. I plan to watch all the episodes of Poker After Dark (IMO best to learn from) and I will read poker books as well as practice online. I’m gonna play every bit of free time I get a chance and hopefully by 21 I will be ready to play at a casino.

Can someone give me tips on getting started at casinos. How do comp points work. If I play at $1/$2 for around 12 hours a day will I have enough comp points to pay for the hotel? If you have any advice please tell me. Thanks!

Poker Hand/ Poker Read Help? (Poker Hand Included)?

I play alot of online poker and have done quite well so i thought i’d have a go at live poker. The main difference between the two pokers is tells so I read a few poker tell books to train myself to spot poker tells at the table. So this question is about tells in a poker hand – Hope you can help:

I entered a 45 player £20 tourney at my local casino and managed to get to 4 handed as chip leader when I get A Q under the gun so I raise to 5 times the big blind, everyone folds round to the big blind who is 2nd in chips calls (I’ve played with the BB alot and know that he protects his blinds to the death and would call my raise with any hand from AA – 7 2) so I can’t really put him on a hand at this point. The flop is Q 4 4 – he checks and I check to trap – turn is a 7 – he checks and I bet and he re raises me all in which was alot of chips and a very big re raise – if I called and won I was mega chip leader, if I call and loose and very short stacked. I try and get him talking to see how strong he was and he said two key things:

I said “do you have K Q or a 4″ and he seemed quite happy about this question and said ” well I guess you can’t beat those two hands then” so then I asked him how much it was to call and he says “about 90,000 but you’d still have about million chips if you called”

So my questions are:
1. Would you fold or call?
2. From what he says do you think he is weak or strong? and why?

Thanks for your help!
When he said you would have a million left he was just joking around beacuse i was chip leader – the call would of left me with about 20,000

He seems pretty tight on the flop, turn and river – he would never go all in i was sure of that
*never go all in on a bluff i was sure of that

llllllllllllllllll asked:

any good books on limit? Ive been beating a B&M 10/20 game for a while. Im making really good money. I want to go pro. Im gonna give it a shot. Anyone else grinding limit games? NL was my game, but my local casino has had limit for a year now, and there are a few players who are better then me and seem to win most times as well. I figure if i can beat it here i can beat it anywhere? (vegas dreams in my head hah)
i know the net is where the real money is…..(multitabling…way more hands per hour) but i really like live poker. PS if i was making 30k or more a year, id be living the dream…and im on pace for 75 this year. (a G a week is not that much in a looseish 10/20) thoughts?

ManUnited!Ole!Ole!Ole! asked:

I am a beginning player, 10 months exp. online. I turned 18 not too long ago and I want to play in casinos and win obviously. I am a loose agressive player, I mostly play SNG (I find I make more money in short amounts of time there) but I would like to branch out into cash games. What are some books I could read to get more of an insight on strategy both for online and live play. I have read hold em for dummies but it only reinforced things I already knew. I also listen to several podcast(tips from the bear, all strategy, cash plays) and I frequent the redpro forum and see how professionals play their hands. Also I want to get more of an understanding to the math in poker can you recommend books for that too. Thanks in advance.

Does anyone have the link to the tutorial of the Casino Royale Card Game?

Nova asked:

There was this site I found once, which had brilliant descriptions on how Bond won/lost, or how Le Chiffre won/lost in Casino Royale (the film), but I can’t find it! Anyone have a link to it?

It would be even better if there was a site with the descriptions of the book card game too.
