in the last couple of weeks im really into texas holdem poker, i read some tips and strategies (before i was playing with my guts, which was great but it can be risky poker sometimes)

so now, done some homework and im ready for the next challenge which is a  big texas holdem tournament at Liana house next weekend, hopefully the learning will pay off (this will be a big, 30 people or so tournament which is much more than the ones we r usually having)

good luck for me

in the meanwhile if you want to read some i advice you to start with the basics  -read some poker hand rankings guide (ye i know it is a real beginner stuff but hey, i have no idea who are my readers right?) – i like the one i found on casinopoker101 just because it is a guide for dummies (like me)

updates – after next weekend

So now all is left for me to do is to organize another great poker tournament – that’s right – if you don’t have the time to play online poker why not spend a hell of a lot more time and have some friends for poker night (this way you also spend some time  preparing the food and cleaning after they all leave your house….ye – thats a smart decision right?

So, my new table is really cool – it can has up to 10 poker players around it and it is red – how cool is that?

The best thing about last night poker tournament was the fact that i had some crazy unreal all ins which odds were not in my favor but somehow i managed to get them on the river, like a hand where i had pocket 5′s and Sara had pocket kings – already not looking good for me ha? then flop showed a nice 5, 9, Q – i was sure i am good here till the turn gave another king – which sucked, but then out of nowhere there was a sweet sweet 5 …oh ye – sara was out.

Another really cool hand was a simple bluff from my side, but Doni was just too stubborn and went all in with me when i had nothing, he had 9,Q and i had 2, 7 flop was showing ace, 8, ace so i went all in like ace was mine, but Doni did as well – so i got real nervous, turn gave us nothing (3 of spade if u must know) and then, just a tiny 2 was showing up – enough for me.

anyway, 200 euros, i think i deserve some new shoes dont ya?

To top on this, there is a poker game next Friday with some friends of mine at Jan house (which is actually building a new site right now so check it out ) and i will probably wont even be able to join since i have some family stuff that weekend….again, missing poker night (not to mention the money since i will of course kick their asses)

Any advice for one very busy poker girl? let me know

geez, i miss poker

Eventually, after some all ins and some unreal flops (ye, u know what im talking about Jan…) i finished 2nd, taking home a sweet sweet prize of 230euros, which is a really nice birthday gift in the eyes of poker girl – this means to me some new clothes and boots…so, i no longer have my poker money with me, but i needed that desperately.

Soon, my school will be over again and during summertime i hope to play some more poker (and some online poker, since it is always more fun to take strangers money)
