Poker Bonus : scam?

Enero 11th, 2012 by evsala

Being an an online poker player, you have probably heard of the term “no deposit poker bonus.” Most poker sites will tell you they offer these kinds of poker bonus, but will reveal little information about them. It is as if they expect you to know what it means already.

So what  does a “no deposit poker bonus” mean and how it is used?

In very simple terms, a “no deposit poker bonus” can be seen as free money. Online poker can be played with real or play money, but this kind of bonus gives you real money to play poker with. It is absolutely free. No deposit means you don’t have to shell out your own money in order to earn free money.

Some sites have restrictions on withdrawing your winnings using the “no deposit poker bonus” you received from them. On casino sites there is always a cap on the amount you can withdraw. For example, you can only withdraw a maximum 0 after completing the requirements . Poker sites , however, do not have a cap and you can withdraw everything you won.
It is important that you should check the terms and conditions of the no deposit poker bonus before availing these feature in order to clear up questions in your head.

Now, you ask, why are these sites offering free money? There are actually several reasons.

One reason is that it is a way of enticing a player to try a poker site’s game rooms while using the owner’s own money. There is no better way to invite a person to play poker online than to offer him free money.. A no deposit poker bonus will take away most of those jitters as the player is given a preview of the credibility of the poker site and the security of their credit details.
When playing poker online, it is always good advice to choose the one that has proven itself credible to its patrons.

Enero 9th, 2012 by evsala

QQ flop decision.
This is a local brick and mortar tourney. No reads on villain as this is my first hand at the table after being moved. villain is the big stack at the table and likely busted the player who was sitting in the chair i was just moved too.

Blinds are 300/600 no ante
Folded to me in the CO i have 7500 or 12.5 BB. I raise to 1500 w Q Q

villain calls from the button everyone else folds, villain has about 12000 or 20BB.

Flop: T, 9, 5

My first post !

Diciembre 28th, 2011 by evsala

Hi,

This is my first entry. I'm not sure if anyone is going to read this or not but I think it's good just to let out my thoughts and try to organize them a little bit.

I've decided now to make poker a much bigger priority in my life. All my free time I want to spend on poker, whether it's playing, sweating, browsing forums, or reviewing play i want to fully dedicate my brain to poker. My goal is to be comfortable at 1/2 by the end of 2012. I plan to write fairly often and post a bunch of graphs. This is very exciting and I'm really looking forward to seeing what other guys who read it think about it.

Anyway, i hope you all enjoy my blog.
