A Good Poker Resource - The Poker Grinder

Sponsored Post

I wanted to highlight a good poker strategy resource for online grinders, The Poker Grinder. They cover many key poker strategy topics including bankroll management, playing against different player types, moving up in limits etc.

The TPG Blog covers news and strategy from around the poker world. Recent stories have included a story on Phil Laak getting himself into the Guinness records book and the new Daniel’s Room at Poker Stars for fans to watch high stakes games.

TPG also provides Poker Bonuses at online poker sites for new players, including detailed reviews of many of the leading online poker sites. Check them out to day and become a Grinder.

Rush Poker Tournaments

I have been trying out the Rush Poker Tournaments on Full Tilt lately and frankly I like them even better than Rush Poker Cash Games.

The main problem with the cash games is that you better have the nuts when you get your money in because the nuts almost always wins the all-in pots in Rush cash games. People are not willing to gamble when they can simply push the fold button and get another hand instantly.

However, in Rush Poker Tournaments there appears to be a similar level of gambling as there is with normal tournaments. And yet, you can finish a Rush tournament in about half the time without getting ridiculous blind levels of a Turbo tournament.

I highly recommend that you check them out on Full Tilt today.

UIGEA, Online Poker and the Gaming Industry

The sands are shifting in the landscape that is online poker. There are movements afoot to further limit players ability to move around cash among the online poker sites, but there are also movements on the legalization fronts. It is shaping up to be an epic battle and hopefully the "good guys win". Just think of the tax dollars from online poker that could be used to solve some of our other current fiscal problems.

Here is a great article by Bill Rini that chronicles some of the players moves in this ongoing saga.

And here is a story about California which is looking into legalizing online poker.

More on California's efforts.
