Quincys Quagmires
A Productive Hiatus
So folks, I know it’s been about three weeks since my last post, but I promise, I’ve got an excuse!  I was detached from my unit in Tampa to come up to North Carolina for some schooling.  Apparently Marine Sergeants need to be professionals. While I’ve been here, I’ve been playing the occasional Sit N’ [...]

How To Get Very Good At Poker
Think back to a time when you knew very little about how to play poker well. Some of you may not have to stretch the imagination very far. You went to the casino. You chased big hands, you checked back value hands, you had no idea what your opponents had. What have you learned since [...]

This is probably my favorite update from Ed of all times relating to Cash Games and my personal preferred method of playing. I'm quite comfortable with being called a TAG.

Battle of the Bots, I mean Blinds..

Posted by: greg on 05/19/2008 01:43 PM (Read: 340)


Are Bot's Ruining Online Poker?
Poker bots caught after winning $58k at PokerStars.
A lawsuit has been filed against Full Tilt Poker, claiming that they use bots to keep games running longer..


There has been much ado lately about bots, take a search on you tube and you'll find guys flaunting their bots, and how they are basically just printing money with them, some with outrageous claims of up to thousands of dollars a month. All at the low price of less than $100.

These bots even if they work, which I doubt they do, are useless. Because I have no doubt that all the big sites have purchased every single bot they could find, and reverse engineered them to see how it works, what it hooks, what processes it uses, where it resides in memory and looks for it, and as soon as it does, it bans you, keeps your money and locks you out. Cya! I won't even go into how easy it is to just flag any account that has been playing non stop for 16 hours on 12 tables. Lets face it, people are stupid and greedy, if that's not a red flag nothing is. No, so to me this is not the real danger and they are easy to catch and ..

Old Man Goals
I wonder when old starts. Is it a number? Or an attitude? Or maybe it’s just a natural shifting of priorities. Whatever it is, I think I’m old now, and I like it. It’s so damn sensible. For example, it used to be that if I was driving somewhere, my objective was to get to [...]
6:49 and All’s Well
The loudest thing right now is the heater that turned off a few minutes ago and is still making lots of little metallic sounds as it cools. It’s an old heater. I take that back. The typing makes many more and louder sounds than the heater. The brightest thing, actually the only bright thing, is [...]
Xyst Bag
About 30 years ago, for Christmas, my mom made me a bag. I still have it. It lives in a big flat box, underneath a snazzy, rotating Scrabble board. Its job is to contain the 100 tiles. If I were allowed to keep only one thing to remind me of my mom, it wouldn’t be [...]

Pocket Kings in the Big Blind
A statement that is as exhilarating as it is devastating, and with 17 players remaining in Day 1B for the Florida Millions at Derby Lane (where 15 advance to the money round), that is what I picked up, Pocket Kings. However, let’s rewind back about 10 and a half hours. I qualified to the Florida [...]
