Session Photos - December - spinning some wheels







Don't know if it is a good idea or not to post these. This session I left with 4 racks so not that successful but still ok.


Session Photos - September

Some session photos - building a stack









Someone asked me how I build my stack so I took a bunch of photos during the session to show how it builds slow and steady. I started this session with one rack and left with 7 racks.

Some session photos - August




I never thought they allowed photographs in the casino but then my buddy discretely took photos as he played on the same table as me and I did not even know he took a photo. So I realized I could do the same. Someone asked me how I stack my chips so here it is (at Oceans). Oceans let you keep the racks on the table (some casinos do NOT allow this!!). This was from a session in August.
Some session photos - January


This was my first session in Vegas this year. I was there for a soccer tournament (I do it every January) and tacked on a poker session before heading home to California. All this from a single buy-in.

Reddit and Poker

So I have been reading the Reddit poker forums and somebody keeps telling beginners that they should be winning because low-stakes NL holdem games are super soft. In fact its become a fact of life and history if you need to implicitly brag about how good you are, just claim low-stakes live games are soft. Even though 70+% of poker players lose money playing those same games the games must be soft and it must be variance.

Well, I call BS on that. The games are getting harder and harder and have been for some time.
