As recently as five years ago, most people couldn’t even tell you what forms of poker were played in casinos. Their only exposure to poker was an occasional home game with friends, where they played ‘classic’ varieties, such as seven-card stud or five-card draw. Then, in 2003, amateur Chris Moneymaker won the World […]

Was playing €5/€10 in the GCB today and was up against a pretty mediocre field with about two good players, a couple mediocre ones who knew they were supposed to pay blinds etc, and one woman who was completely clueless. I mean, CLUELESS.
I bought in for about €750 and cashed out €600. Every hand I […]

I mean I wouldn’t usually post a screenshot like this on Poker Ustmib as it’s not what I’d call a worldshocking flop, but what will make your heart race is that this wouterkomma, the guy that sent us the quad dueces pic, got this hand dealt to him a couple minutes after the dueces… I […]

Bwin.com is one of the biggest online gambling sites on the web. It is actually a very simple looking site but that just makes it easy to navigate. Bwin has been online since 1999 but has failed to really make an impression. It has good player numbers but it is largely due to OnGame’s […]

The recent No Limit Hold’em poker boom has been fuelled “World Poker Tour” (WPT) and “World Series of Poker” (WSOP) being televised. Particularly the success of internet player Chris Moneymaker who was an internet player turned household name. What other arena can you turn $200 into $200, 000 in an evening playing online?

Being dealt a pocket pair can feel like a strong hand but they can lead you down a troubled road if not played correctly. The best advice is to play the top ones strongly but be prepared to let any pair go if things do not flop your way. Whilst pocket pairs have strong […]
