If poker is war, then chips are your ammunition and one must always use their ammunition thoughtfully - after all, once the ammo is gone, so are you.
It is with that idea that I have always been keenly aware of ensuring purpose to every chip I commit to a pot. That being said, you can't play scared poker and win, in fact - I think it is essential to have an utter disconnect from money completely when at the felt (as strange as that may sound). Worrying about losing money has no place at the felt

I found myself in a very interesting situation the other night that really made me think so I thought I’d share it here and hope to get some response form other players. I also figure it might be a good thing for beginners to think about, so hopefully some of them will read this post as well.
During the past week I have been on a bit of a heater, finishing first in 6 straight $5 6 player tournaments and finishing second a few times. For the most part my week has gone the opposite of last week’s

Ever hear about the guy who plays 8, 12, 16, or 24 tables at once and wonder how they do that? How do they keep track of so many opponents in order to put them on a hand? How can they steal if they don't know how their opponents play? What are the benefits of doing this? What are the pitfalls of doing this? These are interesting points when thinking about multi-tabling.
Now, by no means am I a skilled multi-tabling player. I've only been working on this for a few months now, but I can say, I'm

There are a few things I figured out the other night -
The ceiling in my bedroom has 414 of those little paint swirls in it, the wood paneling on the far side of the room has 88 grooves, and a spider, whom I've aptly named 'Toby' seems to do nothing more that move back and forth from my dresser to the television for hours on end.
All of these facts are useless to me and I honestly had no intention of ever discovering them, least of all my little spidey friend, but a recent discussion with a

That’s the expression right? Or is it stupid people? Either way, I can certainly relate. During the past 2 weeks I have been getting my money in good a lot and getting called by donkeys and losing a fair bit. If you're like me when you hear people say stuff like that you wonder how accurate and honest they are being so I'll give you 2 examples that happened in the same night online.
During the first example I was playing a 10 cent 20 cent cash game at a table that was mostly playing tight with

As you might know, I won the first PokerBRB freeroll yesterday at Poker Nordica. "Alas, I did not enter" might be your immediate response. Don't worry, we have 3 more freerolls planned for the following 3 weekends so there are still plenty of chances to beat the PokerBRB champ.
What you might not already know is that I threw away my 35$ winnings in less than half an hour on a Short Stack Limit Rush. For those of you who don't know what a limit rush is, here's an explanation:
A limit rush is

Have you ever made a tough decision pre flop that you were sure was right until everyone's cards were shown? Did that mistake pay off for you? Did it make you feel good about your call, or did you realize that you just sucked out on somebody? These are interesting questions that you have likely thought about at some point. If not, then you will after reading this post.
The other day I was playing in a 12 people, 2 table Sit 'N' Go (small buy-in). When we were down to 3 (top 4 paid) an interesting

Hey there, I'm the new guy.
I'm not much for introductions and the truth is that your here for the best game on earth, so let's not waste any time; let's talk some poker...more specifically, table image.
I find that it's a funny thing about these labels we attach to ourselves with such impermeable closeness that they become a permanent part of our identity. I’ve found in my travels that it is very important to know the distinct differences between them, (as well as their hybrids i.e. tight/aggressive,

The story below is a recollection of my poker career since I started playing online poker in March 2005. The title is "Poker bonus back in the days" because when writing my story I truly started missing the good old bonus whoring days.
In 2005 I had already been sportsbetting online since 2004; I had this great system but that's another story altogether....Anyway in 2004 only a few of the sportsbetting sites offered poker, but the poker bonuses were really good, and since I was already a certified
