A Mixed Bag Of Thoughts On Full Tilt Poker’s Return

There is a buzz online at the moment as people start to become aware that the return of Full Tilt Poker is imminent. It could be as soon as next month… and hopefully before the 1 year anniversary of Black Friday in April!
This post is a collection of my thoughts on various themes relating to [...]

Party Tournaments Report + OnGame Fishmarket Coming Back!

Well, I stated in a previous post that the ‘rake free’ promotion at Party Poker for their tournaments was bound to make the games crazier than ever. Having found the time for a poker session on Saturday evening I’m happy to report that ‘crazy’ was a HUGE underestimate… and that ‘daft’ would have been a [...]

Uncomfortable With Pokerstars, Though Not Anti-Pokerstars

Mentioned here before that I am becoming uncomfortable with the relative size of Pokerstars compared to their rivals. While I wanted to expand on my thought process, every time I wrote things down it ended up sounding like a vague anti-Pokerstars paranoid rant.
So, time for a better balanced post. Which will have to start with [...]

Live Poker Events Winter 2012 – PCA vs Aussie Millions

Updated my Aussie Millions qualifiers page today, and while doing so I got to thinking this nice thought: If I had the chance to go to only one of the big winter events next year, would it be the Aussie Millions… or the Pokerstars Caribbean Adventure?

There are 3 to note, first to flag an upcoming Red Kings ‘Fishmarket’, 2nd Titan Time (a 3-day tourney leaderboard), and 3rd the Double Sunday Million at Stars… A [...]

WCOOP Wraps Up This Weekend

Quick post today, with the World Championship of Online Poker wrapping up this weekend I wanted to add one more reminder of where the profits are to be made – in the satellites!

2 Different Million Dollar Poker Tournaments + A Full Tilt Week Ahead

Only one thing on my mind this week… Full Tilt. I’ll admit it, this is mostly because of the money they owe me – however the balance of online poker sites, reputation of the game in general and prompt return of player funds all factor in.
Also, following on from my look at the Majors the [...]

New Sunday Major – And A Round Up Of The Old Ones Post-FTP!

Time for a quick round-up of the Sunday Majors. I was planning on news of the new one Stars just introduced (the Sunday Cubed) – then thought that with all the changes lately it would not hurt to take a closer look at what is happening with the big Sunday tournaments in general, including times [...]

One More Post On The Pokerstars SNG Changes

Time for one more (and I really really hope the last!) post on SNG Changes at Pokerstars. Many of the changes introduced in early May have been revised, with the structures returning to close to the old system, and the buy in levels more rounded.
