I generally hate advertising as a rule. It wastes my time, it is usually pretty annoying, and it is almost always aimed at people with a more primitive sense of humor than me. Now thats not to say I don’t love a good football-in-the-crotch scene now and again, but most ads come up woefully... Read More
Imagine yourself taking a little constitutional into the woods near your home, headed for a particularly enjoyable overlook of the neighboring valley (which has been reputed to shelter a sizeable treasure!) You’ve been through these woods many times, searching for various bounties, and you... Read More
I’ve been in Kansas City for a few days now with my family, and got the chance to play a little live poker tonight at Harrah’s. There are a few things of note about this casino and its patrons: There are some ridiculous rules regarding entry and buying chips, primarily as a result o... Read More
Well I’ve realized that I probably should just beast out these reports quickly after I get back, or perhaps even while the trip is going on, since its hard to remember details a few weeks later. But anyhow, I’ll do what I can to fill in the blanks. So, on New Years Eve we had a rese... Read More
Alright so where were we? Ah yes, the third day there, or something like that. Well, it was another lazy day, probably involving some home games and some playing online and some not eating enough food. I went with a few of the guys to the “fashion show mall” because I needed to acqui... Read More
The deck is dealt into 4 hands of 13 cards each, which are given to 2, 3, or 4 players (2 players: each gets 2 individual and separate hands, 3 players: each gets one hand, the last is discarded or given to a friend to play for funsies, 4 players: each player gets a hand). Each player uses his ... Read More
I’ve noticed an interesting trend in my play as of late: when I put in long sessions over many tables, my results are generally good, but modest. When I put in shorter sessions and only play a few tables at a time (generally at higher stakes) I crush the game. I suppose I shouldn’t b... Read More
So I was playing the 10-10-20 NL game at Lucky Chances yesterday, when I was moved to the feature table. Well not really 'feature' so much as the main game, what with it being a must-move and all. I moved into the nine seat and played for a few orbits. In the 4 seat was a player who I had not se... Read More
Being as it was Wednesday and all, it was time to roll down to the casino and stack some fools. So I hop on the ol' bike, dodge the rain that may or may not have come down (I wouldn't know, being in the casino all day where they try and keep you from realizing whats going on outside) and head to...

So its been a while since I played much live poker, pretty much since the summer when I played some WSOP donkaments. Mostly an issue of having the vast majority of my money online, of course, and seeing as how I was building up a pretty nice roll I was content to keep growing it and playing bigg... Read More
Yo dudes, I’m gonna start blogging on here from now on for the most part. It looks like our blog network has finally gotten developed fully and is ready to rock, and I’m glad to see so many members and other coaches getting involved. As for my old blog , I’ll probably still post there now and again but it will be more relevant to my non-poker friends. I personally haven’t been playing a ton of poker lately ... <a href="/blogs/djsensei/3271-The-new-home-of-Sensei-s-blog">(continued)</a>
I know what you’re asking yourself after reading the first 2 trip reports (if anybody actually did read them haha). Did Tecmo actually play any poker while in Vegas? Yes, in fact, I did. Here’s me (black hoodie, white earphone hanging down) rockin it at the 2/5 NLHE tables at the Rio. You can’t see him, but 2fouroffsuit is sitting at the very next table and he can vouch for me :) (Also a very cool dude.) I plann ... <a href="/blogs/tecmosuperbowl/263-Vegas-Trip-Report-3">(continued)</a>
