Poker Tips top 5 online playing tips
5 Top Online Poker Tips
Some people believe there is no such thing as an online poker tell, but they are wrong! People use them every day, every time they sit down to play online. If you want to be a big winner online, you'll need to learn how to take advantage of online tells in order to increase your winnings.
The five common online tells and how to use them in online poker games will be discussed below. The five tells are: fast check, wait and bet, patterns, fast bet, and telling the hand.

Fast Check: Perhaps the easiest online poker tell, you should want for a player that checks instantly when the action turns their way. The reason for the super-fast check is that they have used the tool that allows online players to automatically check. This means that well before the action turned their way, they were already ready to check. Chances are good you could steal the pot here with a reasonably-sized wager. Sometimes, however, really good players will use this tell against you, so be on the look out and remember who uses this reverse-tell!
Wait and Bet: This tell is usually indicatibe of a b hand is means the player is thinking about how much to wager to get the most for their money and therefore it takes a few seconds longer than normal. You have to pay close attention to pick up on th is tell, but watch how long players take on average. If they wait longer and check instead of placing a bet, they are probably bluffing, trying to make you believe their cards are ber than they really are. If that happens to be the case, you could steal the pot with a reasonable wager.
Betting Patterns: Knowing the patterns of various players is a valuable resource in any type of poker. You need to determine exactly how each player bets when holding good cards and what they do when they hold weak cards. Most players will tell you quite clearly with varying bet amounts. Let's say a player raises $40 before the flop but then only places a very small wager on the flop, this would indicate weakness. He was trying to run the opponents away. Notice how much players raise when they have aces rather than jacks in their hand.
Fast Bet: When a player bets quickly, they are frequently attempting to intimidate you. This tell is used in an effort to get other players to fold. It is taken as a sign of strength by other players because it scares them, but it is often simply a bluff.
Telling You Their Hand: When a player tells their hand, it is a really strange type of tell. It is only common sense to realize that when a player tells you about his hand without your having asked, the facts he gives are FALSE! Why would a player tell you what is in his or her hand unless he or she were giving false information in hopes you would bet more or fold. The other player just wants to rent space in your head to make you wager so they will win more.
Most b poker player just don't care if they exhibit tells. Other players are just not aware they are displaying tells at all. The thing you want to note about online tells is that they are not 100% perfect and will not work in every situation every single time. But, you can pick up a lot of information by watching for common tells and using that to help you choose your action.

Spanish Poker

Spanish Poker
Aka – Synthetic Poker. It’s played in Spain and usually has a no limit structure. It's unusual because in this variation the deck consists of 28 cards (8-A). Ace can act both as the highest card and as the lowest one (7).
In this game there is an ante. The players are dealt two cards. One card is dealt face up. Then there is a round of betting. Another card is dealt face-up. And so on until there are 5 cards on the board.
Then to make a hand you must use both of your two cards and 3 from the board. You can’t 4 board cards. Now let’s suppose that you have: Kh Qc. And the board cards are: Jh 2h 7h 9h Ad.
Sorry, but you don’t have a flush. Another thing about flush - in this poker variation it can beat a full house.

a letter from Vicky Coren
Dear INTELLIGY,
For Richer, For Poorer:A Love Affair With PokerThis might be the most nerve-racking week of my life: book publication week. I have written a personal memoir of my life playing cards, called For Richer, For Poorer:A Love Affair With Poker.
Details are available on my website here, and you can buy the book on Amazon here. It will also be stocked in the PokerStars VIP Store soon, and I have read some extracts for PokerStars.tv which you will find here.
I am very proud of the book, but nervous about people reading it. Of course it is full of happy things – lucrative moments of victory, funny stories about the game and anecdotes about the famous faces - but it is also very honest about the dark times, the periods of low confidence and the heartbreak that came from falling in love with a fellow poker player. Once everyone’s read it, I half-wonder if I will ever dare go into a card room again.
But of course I will be going into a card room again very soon, because it’s nearly time for my favourite tournament of the year: the EPT London. The book tells all about my victory in this event in 2006, going through all the hands I played at the final table and how I won it. If you feel confident you’re going to win this year, read it
quickly now for a taste of what it’s going to feel like!
From September 23, you’ll be able to buy in for the main event in London directly online at PokerStars.com. But there are still plenty of cash and FPP satellites to get in far cheaper – just look in the PokerStars lobby under ‘Events’ > ‘EPT’.
And I am especially pleased that this year’s London festival will also include many other variants of poker: Pot Limit Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, round-of-each Holdem/Omaha and two magnificent 8-game tournaments. There’s a £2000 European 8 Game Championship for the high rollers and a gentler £500 version later. Full schedule for the festival is here:
http://www.europeanpokertour.com/tournaments/london/index.html#lon2
Good luck and I’ll see you in London. If you’ve bought the book and you disagree massively with my opinion of Las Vegas or the way I played that pair of sixes, you’ll find me at the table…
Best wishes,

WSOP Main Event on ESPN
The ninth and tenth hours of ESPN’s coverage of the 2009 World Series of Poker Main Event took us through the highs and lows of Day 3, the first day of play in which the entire field was united in one room. A pair of Melbourne-dwelling Aussies took center stage this week, with 2005 Main Event champion Joe Hachem and triple bracelet winner Jeffrey Lisandro dueling on the featured table. These two were certainly familiar with one another’s tendencies at the table, as they’ve spent countless hours playing together in high-stakes cash games at the Crown Casino. Pairing the icy Lisandro with the tiltable Hachem was an interesting lesson in contrast, with only one of the boys from Down Under surviving to play the next day.

Cast of Characters: While Hachem and Lisandro ruled the main featured table, Kenny Tran captained the secondary along with Ville Wahlbeck, the only player remaining in the field that could wrest 2009 Player of the Year honors away from Lisandro. Tran was later joined by the always-entertaining David “Devilfish” Ulliott while out in the field Phil Ivey, Jennifer Harman, J.C. Tran, Peter Eastgate, Greg Raymer, Phil Hellmuth, Jean-Robert Bellande, Lou Diamond Phillips, Jason Alexander, Bertrand “ElkY” Grospellier, Josh Arieh, Dennis Phillips, Jordan Farmar, Hevad "Rain" Khan, Joe Sebok, and Kent Senter worked on growing their chip stacks.
