The folks from PokerStars

talk all things poker next :

Yadin Shemmer is no dummy. The man worked on Wall Street and ran a hedge fund. He plays poker–high stakes Pot-Limit Omaha, to be exact–as a hobby. Yes, a hobby. That’s a short way of saying, you don’t expect him to do anything boneheaded.

“Making the final table was unexpected,” the man known as Science told us after his win.

We have a full poker Glossary for those struggling to understand the terms in these poker posts…

See, he’d been playing the $530 Omaha Hi-Lo event for about six hours from London. It was pretty darned late at night. And, well, he dozed off for an hour and half. Happens to the best of us. Chalk it up to a $530 dropped in a sewer grate and go back to sleep.

Not Science.

Apologies for leaving the sleepy PokerStars folks at this point, but if your appetite has been whetted check out Tuesday’s full length post at the PokerStars blog.

Next up, it is Tournament Poker Talk from Betfair -

Yes, Betfair Have A Poker Room Too:

and we think it is rather a good one to try out…

Tournament poker can be a funny old game. One minute you can’t do anything wrong, it seems you always hit the flop hard, your shoves get through and if they are called you usually have their hand dominated. It’s great. On the other hand though, you go through spells where no matter what you do it isn’t right. You shove with AQ and the big blind wakes up with AK, you 3-bet shove with AA and they turn over QQ and * bink * a queen on the turn.

We’ll leave the cracked Betfair folks at this point, but if your appetite has been whetted check out Tuesday’s full length post at the Betfair blog.
