Re: Harrah\'s New Orleans Poker Room
I've played in Tunica, Biloxi, and now New Orleans and I can honestly say they treat the poker players much, much better in both Tunica and Biloxi.
Game selection, as far as limits, will be better...

Re: I still find it hard to believe...
Here's my 2 cents worth....
I believe that poker is still becoming more popular, and people just absolutely love to gamble. The younger generation is no different, and poker is now acceptable. ...

Re: daryn . . .
Hey, TSP, I'll be there in a couple of weeks, actually probably next Saturday night. Does the 20-40 run all the time, or does it start at a certain time of the day, or does it run some days and not...

Re: Trip Report Harrah\'s New Orleans (too long)
You're right. We thought we were being smart because the tourney was in town that week. We were sure there'd be a 30-60 going, with some pretty poor play. As it turned out I decided to play poorly...

Re: Best place to play poker
The best place to play, by far IMO, Is the Horseshoe In Tunica, Ms. At least it used to be.
They charge you $25 for a room per night, will pick you up at the airport, and they comp you for every...

Re: Trip Report Harrah\'s New Orleans (too long)
Yes, I'm thinking you may be right. It was a bad play. I was out of position, I had nothing, but I guess they had nothing either.
It was just so bizarre, the whole weekend was just weird. I...

Re: Crazy action..request comments
I think what everyone is saying is this....
Sometimes you just have to call and pay off what you are pretty sure is a winner for someone else. That's why a bet on the end, by you, is a good play. ...

Re: what does \"outplay\" mean?
I've always heard to "outplay" someone is to make them lay down a hand that would otherwise beat you at the showdown. This is a very impractical concept in the smaller limit games in which two or...

Re: step up to the Turning Stone 30-60.
I'll be coming home (Near Watertown) at the end of this month. I plan on stopping by Turning Stone. Hopefully the 30-60 will be rolling on Saturday night. Maybe I'll run into you.

Horrible 15-30 play
I'm BB and I call one raise with J4h, one other caller besides me and the raiser. Bad play #1.
Flop comes A-3-9 with one heart. I check, MP checks, raiser bets, and I call (why? I'm not sure),...

When you say you're losing a lot of money is it because you are chasing the flushes with just three to a flush after the flop? If you have four to a flush after the flop then you should be making...

I play poker, a lot, usually 4 to 5 times a night in a 15-30 holdem and Omaha8 game. I've been losing lately, no big deal, and last night I had a good sized win.
