If you know what your cards mean, then you are already a step ahead of the game. You want to make sure you always know that your face cards are basically the highest. Your ace can be either your highest or your lowest depending on what game you are playing. Every card in between 2 and 9 are just what they say they are and account for just that number.

How To Host A Poker Game Properly

Sonja | January 25, 2020March 11, 2020

Before you decide to host a poker game, you are going to need poker players, refreshments, and rules.

If you want a small, friendly game of cards then you may want to stick with a group of 5-10 friends that play well together. However, if you want a wild crazy night of gambling, you can host an ‘open house’.

An open house would require inviting as many people as possible, and allowing them to invite anyone they would like to bring. Please be forewarned that having an ‘open house’ can lead to some problems.

You may get reckless players, immature guests, and over-dramatic sore losers. You can maintain some control over the outcome of hosting an ‘open house’; but a smaller, friendly poker game is your safest option if you wish to avoid any risk.

An open house would also mean a more ‘tournament style’ game, so you need to arrange seating capacity. A poker game goes much smoother if there is no more than 10 people to a table. You will need to know how many people you have room for, and seats for, and set a limit to how many people you can host.

A very important rule should be an age restriction. Since poker games usually involve gambling, and drinking, you should not allow anybody under 21 to play. You can be flexible, if the situation is right, but you should draw a firm line at 18.

The next topic would be the refreshments. Obviously, you will want to have alcohol. However, with an ‘open house’ you will want to attach a BYOB to the open invitation, or you may end up with a bunch of moochers.

One very helpful poker tip: Don’t drink. Better yet, appear to be drinking more than you actually are. Have one beer, and nurse it. This is good because while your opponents are getting tipsy, they are usually playing recklessly. Keeping a clear head will give you an advantage, and increase your odds of winning.

Refreshments should not be limited to drinks. Food is important when you are hosting anything. From snacks (either chips or something more ‘home made’) to actual food (order a pizza, cook some meat, etc.) it will increase the comfort level and make the night more enjoyable.

Once you have the people and the refreshments, you are almost ready to play. But rules are very, very important when it comes to hosting a poker night. Typically, ‘poker night’ should rotate. You may host one night, and the next weekend it is hosted at another friends. Either way, when you are the host, you are responsible for laying down the guidelines.

This includes variable game options. Are there going to be re-buys, how long do ’rounds’ last (do blinds go up in 10 minutes or 15?) will there be a set dealer or will deal get passed with the blinds, etc. Everything about how the game will be played is up to you to decide.

After that, you should set your own rules relating to non-poker subjects. If this is a ‘boys only night’, or if there is a door charge on top of the buy ins (and what the buy in will be) should all be included with the information on your verbal invitation.

Even if you are not hosting an ‘open house’, you still want everyone invited to be clear of your expectations and respectful of your house.

After these three important steps, your poker night should be all fun and games!

Hollywood’s Love Affiar With Poker

Sonja | January 20, 2020March 11, 2020

With the 2012 World Series of Poker currently running, hardcore poker fans are glued to their TVs for two hours a week watching pros and amateurs trying win it big in the world’s biggest poker tournament. So, what’s a poker fan to do with the rest of the 166 hours in the week? Fear not, Hollywood has a long loving relationship with the game of poker. Here are five great poker-themed films that will entertain any poker playing fan.

Rounders

“Rounders” is widely considered to be one of the reasons for the big poker boom of the early 2000s. Not only did Chris Moneymaker cite the film as his inspiration for winning the World Series, countless other amateurs who try their luck in the biggest poker tournament around say “Rounders” started them on their journey.

The film follows Mike, a law student played by Matt Damon, who has promised his girlfriend he’s done with poker. All of that changes when his old buddy Worm, played by Edward Norton, shows up. Suddenly, Mike finds himself owing a Russian mobster, played by John Malkovich, a whole lot of money in a very short amount of time.

Of all the poker movies, “Rounders” is probably the truest to the game itself. You won’t see any royal flushes or people unable to match the pot so they have to forfeit.

Maverick

If “Rounders” is a true-to-life poker movie, “Maverick” is full-fledged escapism. Yes, there are royal flushes, and other insanely improbable things that happen, but this movie never tries to be serious so as audience members we’ll gladly overlook such shortcomings. Based on the 1950’s TV show, “Maverick” follows Bret Maverick, played by Mel Gibson, as he tries to scrounge up some cash so he can enter a winner-take-all poker tournament. It has everything a western-themed poker film needs: guns, booze, women, and a Mississippi riverboat.

Breaking Vegas: Prince of Poker

While technically not a “film” this History Channel documentary recounts the true tale of Jim McManus, a broke writer with four kids who made a play at the 2000 World Series of Poker. The documentary takes some liberties, and also has horrible reenactment scenes, but poker players will appreciate the McManus rags-to-riches story that so many players dream about.

The film follows McManus as he accepts a freelance writing gig covering the World Series of Poker. When McManus gets his advance money he decides to use it to enter a satellite for a spot in the World Series. While probably not the best financial decision in the world (I mean the guy has four kids to feed), McManus ends up getting his seat and going pretty deep in the Series.

Lucky You

“Lucky You” is a romantic comedy that centers on Huck Cheever (Eric Bana). Huck lives life in the shadow of his father LC Cheever (Robert Duvall), a professional poker player well-known in the circles, and also gets involved with a local girl played by Drew Barrymore. While certainly not the best poker movie, it’s really a romance played against the backdrop of the poker world, fans will enjoy the cameos by some of the best pro poker players out there.

Shade

“Shade” takes us deep into the world of hustlers, cheaters, and scoundrels as we follow a crew trying to take down the best card mechanic out there-The Dean. (Sylvester Stallone). Much like “Rounders,” the card hands are all within reason, and the cheating methods are believable. As an amateur magician myself, I can attest that the card cheating used in the film is legit. In fact, there was only one scene in the film that used a special effect involving the cards (and that was only done because the actor’s hands couldn’t perform the slight, not because it’s an impossible move). Like any good con game movie, the audience gets it in the end, too.

Free Adult Erotic Sexy Games For Couples: Strip Poker For Two

Sonja | January 15, 2020August 26, 2020

We all know about the game strip poker and how playing with friends could be really fun and daring. It could be played in a more intimate setting of two though and can be even more exciting than you could ever imagine.

Lets look at the rules first just to refresh your memory. The dealer deals five cards each the value of the cards from highest to lowest will include the following:

Royal flush, which signifies an ace, king, queen, jack and ten. The straight flush is five cards of the same suit in a running suite for example 9,8,7,6,5. A flush is five cards of any suit but in order. A full house is three of one number and two of another. A triple is three of a kind and two unconnected cards. Two pairs are two sets of cards that are the same and one unconnected card. A pair is only one pair that is the same and three unconnected card.

At the next deal you can throw in all your poor cards and substitute them for new cards. Then the betting begins. The last person to bet opens their cards first. The winner scoops the pot. The loser has to obey the winner’s instructions.

Of course the game is one of sexual forfeits and should start off lightly. First off remove some of the bits of clothing but not all of course since having to be naked only in some areas generally increase people’s discomfort. Then you graduate to touching the exposed parts and then you graduate to even more intimate touches and eventually you could have interrupted sessions of sex that would only increase the level of arousal. Of course a partner could bluff but this carries with it a penalty, which both partners must be ready to pay.

This game can become really intense and you might have to help your partner through it and stop to make your partner more comfortable in some cases. You need to make sure that the loving relationship comes first and that it dies not degenerate into an objectification session. Alternate sexual forfeits with other little tasks like asking your partner to lie on her back and eat food from her belly or ask her or him for a drink. Have the half naked person make a phone call to a friend. Just the thought of being half naked can increase the eroticism.

As you can see strip poker does not have to be a game for a group. It could be just as much fun for two and can bring both of you together with laughter and tasks that will make you smile for weeks after the vent had taken place. It will also make you feel a little naughty.

Bob the Bubble Boy and the World Series of Poker Main Event

Sonja | January 10, 2020March 11, 2020

He drank in the elixir of sights and sounds that made this city special. He was finally in Las Vegas for the World Series of Poker, something he’d dreamed about for years. His arrival marked the beginning for him. It was the beginning of the new Bob, not the loser of the past. However, fate doesn’t always abide by our plans but has its own twists and turns to make the trip interesting.

He was a quiet man with a slight almost frail build. He had a raging drive to participate in sports and the keen sense of competition that should have made him great but because of his stature and lack of confidence, he stayed on the sidelines through his high school years and never found his niche. That all changed when Chris Moneymaker made the news winning the World Series of Poker. The idea of a legitimate sport anyone could play with millions of dollars in prizes enthralled him.

You didn’t need to be agile, strong or swift to play. You needed to be smart and competitive. He knew he had these traits. He studied for months before he entered his first tournament and was pleased when he almost made it in the money. It was a true accomplishment for a first timer.

Bob loved poker and he loved tournaments. He’d registered for every live tournament in his area but never managed to make it in the money. Someone always knocked him out right before he qualified for a minimum prize. In fact, it happened so frequently, everyone started calling him Bob, the Bubble Boy. When it came down to one before the money, players would scan the room and if they saw Bob, would be comfortable knowing, their position in the money was secure.

Bob’s reputation followed him to every tournament and even Bob believed it. If it weren’t a bad beat on the river, he’d make that one fatal error every tournament that prevented him from making the money. He seemed destined never to win. That is, however, before he found the world of Internet poker.

He took the online name of “The Bubble Boy 68” and found the anonymity of online poker improved his game tremendously. He learned to play far more aggressively, something he’d lacked that always was part of his downfall. He savored every tournament and instead of living up to his name, began winning.

One day, he noticed a $3.30 satellite to the World Series of Poker Main Event. It was a long shot. You had to win two satellites to get to the final competition for the ticket. A win on the $3.30 tournament gave you a ticket to the $33.00 satellite and finally, if you won that one, the $330 competition to win your $10,000 ticket to Las Vegas. He knew the chances were slim but worth trying.

Bob didn’t win on his first attempt. He made it to the second satellite and then bombed. However, after several attempts, he found himself competing at the final table for his ticket and heads up against one of the most aggressive players online, “BITEMELOVER298.” When the last hand ended, his A6 beat the pocket 4’s of BITEMELOVER298 and he’d won his ticket.

He booked a room at the YipeeKiyaa Casino and Hotel. It was a western themed casino with a mechanical bull in the center of the gaming area and cowboy memorabilia everywhere. Bob wanted to be fresh for the tournament and his flight was a long one. He was preregistered and scheduled for the first flight of the series. Rather than burn all his energies seeing Vegas, he decided that he’d eat supper, walk from the Strip to the Rio to check how long it took and burn off supper. Then he’d hit the sack.

The Chuck Wagon Buffet had every type of dish you could imagine, but focused on foods associated with the old west. He helped himself to a serving of Campfire Beans, one of the specialties. There was corned beef and cabbage, something Bob hadn’t had in years and remembered fondly as a dish his Irish mother loved to serve. He took a small portion of steak and smothered it with sautÃ©ed mushrooms and onions. There were all types of cheese and he took one of each, some broccoli, cauliflower, and a little bit of sauerkraut with sausage. He topped it off with some soft serve ice cream. There were all types of beer if you wanted to order it. Bob chose Mexican beer he’d never heard of and a bottle of Millers as a chaser.

After supper, the walk to the Rio seemed far less appealing. Instead, he decided to go to bed and leave early enough in the morning to have breakfast there before the tournament. He had one more beer for the road to help him sleep, left instructions for the wake up call and dozed off.

Was it the jet lag or the beer that made him sleep so soundly? Bob awoke with a start to the sound of a phone. He answered and instead of a recorded message, it was the desk clerk he’d talked to the day before.

“I noticed you never answered the recorded wake-up call and I know how important this tournament is. So, thought I’d try it one more time myself. The tournament starts in less than an hour.”

Bob was suddenly awake with the realization that he’d overslept. The WSOP started in 45 minutes and he knew it would take at least 25 to get from his hotel to the Rio. He’d have to grab a cab and even then, rush. He showered quickly, put on the shirt with the online logo, and headed out the door.

Be A Caribbean Poker Stud With Caribbean Stud Poker

Sonja | January 5, 2020August 13, 2020

What do you think about upon hearing the word ¨poker?¨ Old sailors gathered in festive moods over a wooden table slapping chips down? A group of college students parading around with booze in their hand about to call a Flush? High stakes gamblers at the Mirage casino ready to pounce on the dealer when the opportunity strikes? Poker is by far the most popular card game of all-time. It extends to many levels – having its own ¨World Series¨ on ESPN television and even its own job title (professional poker players do exist – when did you hear the same thing for Blackjack players?) Poker exceeds boundaries when it comes to pure entertainment – players sit at the table for hours playing this enjoyable game. Top partners at law firms set up poker tables in their meeting rooms after a long hard day at work to relax. It is played by everyone and everywhere.

The casino style Caribbean Stud Poker is a variation of the popular five card poker game. As the name indicates, it originated from the Caribbean islands and spread soon after to different regions of the world. Using one standard deck of playing cards, the game is started with a wager by the player. The dealer (common to a myriad of card games) then distributes five cards face down to each individual player. When the dealer deals his own cards, he leaves four face down and leaves the last card up for everyone to see. Based on a players hand, they make the decision over whether to stay in the game or ¨fold¨ – leave the game. Suppose they had a pair (more on hand payouts later) in their hand already – here, folding wouldn´t be a good idea, as they have a chance to win the game. Folding the game automatically eliminates the initial wag er placed, so there is no harm done to the players money. If the player stays in the game, he must double up (or double the initial bet.)

In order to win some delicious payouts, it all depends on the dealers hand. If the dealer has the higher valued hand, the dealers wins your money. If the player has the higher valued hand, the amount of money they win depends on the hand they are dealt. Hand payouts usually operate as follows:

Royal Flush 100:1 (a $2 dollar bet will net you a $200 gain)
Straight Flush 50:1 (a $2 dollar bet will net you a $100 gain)
Four of a Kind 20:1 (a $2 dollar bet will net you a $40 gain)
Full House 7:1 (a $2 dollar bet will net you a $14 gain)
Flush 5:1 (a $2 dollar bet will net you a $10 gain)
Straight 4:1 (a $2 dollar bet will net you an $8 gain)
Three of a Kind 3:1 (a $2 dollar bet will net you a $6 gain)
Two Pair 2:1 (a $2 dollar bet will net you a $4 gain)
Pair 1:1 (a $2 dollar bet will net you a $2 gain)

Poker is flush with strategy opportunities. Professional poker players study behaviors and probabilities that certain cards and hands will appear based on the cards already dealt. It does really involve more than luck and winning can be hard to pull off. Poker players literally have the entire deck memorized so all moves must be exercised with caution.

A Fun First Time Win At Video Poker

Sonja | January 1, 2020August 13, 2020

I was sitting at my favorite video poker machine at Bay Mills Casino in Brimley, MI. It was one of a row of some ten machines that had various games on them. I was playing $.10 deuces wild which cost me $.50 a hand. With the payoff tables that were on the machine and at the relaxed speed with which I played, I’d probably lose about $5.00 an hour. With a big payoff on a good hand like 4 deuces or a royal flush, I’d win a few dollars. I played for fun and enjoyed a glass of wine while I played.

An older lady stood by my shoulder for a few moments and watched what I was doing. She held her purse in front of her with both hands like I would expect a Sunday School Teacher to do. The stool in front of the machine next to me was vacant. She sat down. In an unsure fashion she found her slot club card and inserted it into the machine.

I smiled at her. “Ever play video poker before?” I asked.

She shook her head.

“Probably the easiest game is Jacks or Better,” I told her, and pointed to the appropriate symbol.

She pressed the symbol and the game appeared on the screen. She had a $5 bill in her hand and put it in the bill slot. Noisily, the machine registered 100 credits.

“If you play the maximum amount – that’s 5 nickels,” I told her, “you get a bonus if you hit a really good hand. So, you should probably press the ‘max play’ button.”

She did and the machine dealt her a hand.

“Now,” I told her. “You just decide which cards you want to keep in your poker hand and press ‘draw’. It’ll discard your unwanted ones and give you some new ones.

She examined her cards and decided she wanted to hold a pair of sixes. The machine took away the three unwanted cards and gave her two tens, and a king. It also made a little noise as it gave her $.50 for the $.25 she’d played. She looked happy.

“That’s all there is to it,” I told her. “If you need help, just tell me.” I returned to my deuces wild game. Several hands later, I drew to two deuces and got the other two deuces. My machine began making a lot of noise as it rang up the 1,000 credits that I received.

She stopped playing and watched as the credits mounted on my machine. “How much is that?” she asked.

“$100.00,” I told her.

“My, that’s nice,” was her response.

We continued to play and I kept half an eye on her and her machine. She was staying around her 100 credits. It’d get up to 120 and then drop to 95. She’d get pleased when she was ahead and tense when she dropped behind.

The machine gave her an ace of spades, a jack of spades, a king of spades, and a couple cards of no consequence. I watched her as she pushed the hold buttons for the ace, jack, and king. Then she pressed draw. In the two empty spaces the queen of spades and the ten of spades popped up. Her machines started chattering away as it accumulated the 4,000 credits she’d won.

I stopped playing and watched. Finally her machine got quiet.

“That was a pretty good hand,” I said.
She was flushed and excited. “I’ve never seen a hand like that,” she said.
How much is it?” she asked.
I pointed at the part of the screen that showed 4,105 credits. “Push right there,” I said.

She did and the number of credits changed to $205.25. “Oh, my goodness,” she exclaimed. “I’ve never won anything like that. I have to show this to my husband.”

She pulled her club card out of the machine. She pressed the cashout button. A credit slip showing her winnings came out of the machine. She grabbed it and hurriedly left, looking for her husband.

I smiled at the player on the next machine down.

“That’s great fun when someone wins for the first time,” the other player said. I nodded in agreement and went on playing my $.10 deuces wild.

How to Make Lindens in Second Life!

Sonja | December 19, 2019August 26, 2020

Second Life is a powerful, multiplayer online sandbox (that is, freeform virtual world) where the limits of what you can do are governed only by your conscience, and perhaps the morals of society. Aside from that, you can do anything in Second Life you can do in a real life, including play, fight, gamble, and even work. All the while you’ll develop a more unique avatar (or maybe several!) and a large inventory of items to play around with. But in some cases, you’ll want some spending money to acquire higher quality stuff. There are many different ways to achieve this without spending a cent!

The first way to build up a tiny amount of money is to find a camping spot. Basically, what you are doing is donating your time to make this particular place look more populated than it really is. In the search bar on your screen, type in camping and hit enter, and a list of spots that pay out for camping will appear. Things to watch out for when looking for camping spots include how much is paid over time, how many spots are regularly taken, and whether you need to join a group in order to get paid for this camping. You will also need to pay attention every now and then, as nearly every camping spot has some form of anti-bot built in that will ask you a question. If you fail to answer it, you may not get paid.

A lesser version of camping includes looking for people who pay you to keep their location in their picks. This requires a little bit more work to set up, but less camping in locations in order to get paid. It also won’t pay as much in the long run. However, if you’re pressed for time this will allow you to slowly scoop up savings without as much of a timesink. Although it is possible to make this process even much faster with the help of judi online resmi. You get gameplay tips along with several shortcuts that are really handy while playing the game.

The second way to build up money is to actually make things to sell. Believe it or not, there are services that allow you to do just that, without having to purchase land or rent land! The process is simple- sign up for an account for XStreet (OnRez, a similar service, will be shutting down soon as Linden Labs recently acquired both services) and follow the instructions to verify the account you set up with your avatar. You’ll have to search for XStreet machines, but it’s worth it to be able to sell items without paying anything to register them, or buy land or invest any other way. The biggest downside is that you have to have something to sell, which means learning how to make your own items. Thankfully, it’s easy to make knockoff items of popular items and sell them for much less. A nastier pitfall of selling your own items is that it actually DOES cost lindens to upload textures, sounds, and animations. For this reason it is only recommended you attempt selling when you have a large enough linden background to upload enough good looking textures for what you want to build.

A third way to make money is to take up active advertising. Your job is little different from telemarketers or door-to-door salesman, or sometimes being a walking advertising board for a more passive approach. Your goal? Get as many referrals as you can! This often has the white collar grind you will find with any sort of marketing job, but is as rewarding as the effort you put into it.

The final way to make money on Second Life is… well, prostitute your avatar! With a handful of free items and some tweaking to make your avatar look pleasing to the eye, and maybe some fetish items for the kinkier crowds, simply put your roleplay skills to work for you! There are places that also let you dance on poles and leave tip jars, which pays a lot like camping, although less reliable. The upside is that there is no limit to how much you can make by being tipped!

I’m going to take a second to talk about gambling on Second Life. The first thing to remember about Zyngo machines is that they are designed to generate income for the owner, not you! Even the freeplay machines are often set up so that only a trickle of lindens will come towards a person. That said, if your skill and luck are high enough, you can win the freeplay machines and earn lindens that way. Just be on the lookout for new places and never become too complacent with one spot, because others will come along too, looking to upset your high score. Should you find a score you know you can beat, and the payout is soon, it may be worth the risk of putting time or money into as well… just don’t count on it.
