How do you play poker good? I want to be on the t.v. playing good poker. How do I do this? Also, how do you know how to play against people who are bad? I think I'm pretty good, like I know what kinds of cards beat others, like A is better than K, and K is better than Q but not A, so how can I get a camera to record me for ESPN when I make my debut trip to the casino. I haven't played any in a casino, but I just know that I'll win, and I want the ESPN to see it since it'll be my first time. I am going to casino soon, so online poker willn't help me there.

My money just as good as you're money. I give up my left kidney to play in $10k tournment. I win, and gets lots of money. I am requestering to be learned better. This tournment is becoming soon, so I has to do well. One thing more too man whom claims "I played 1 million hands"... with avrage of 1 minute fore a hand, you play poker for 694.4444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444444 days with no sleep no break.

Can a book *really* teach someone how to be better at poker? I just learned how to play Texas Hold 'Em about 6 months ago, and really enjoy playing. I'm not bad, but I also think that one's success hinges more on blind luck than pure skill. That said, I'd like to get better. My question is two parts : 1.) Can a book REALLY teach someone how to get better at playing poker, and 2.) If so, can someone recommend a book that they believe will help me with that?
Poker question...? Okay, here's the deal. I have been playing poker for about 2 years now. No limit Texas Hold em. I don't want to to toot my own horn but I always make it to at least the final 3, and I can do a lot of poker chip tricks and all that fun stuff. My problem is heads up. When it's just me and the final person I suck it up! How can I play better heads up poker? Are there any tells I should look for in the other person to tell if they have a better hand? and what cards should I play besides the obvious?

What is the best poker gambling site to play on? I've heard that some sites are rigged in certain situations (one being that they will have large hands hit eachother at the same time so that people will go out quicker). I didn't believe it at first but I've been noticing it happening more than it should if it was random. Anyways, paranoya aside, what seems to be a good site to play poker on? Thanks!
How to play poker against an idiot?....for good poker players and online players? Okay in the past week, ive been playing poker against stone cold idiots....Im going to give two scenarios....happened yesterday and the day before. Pokerstars: I had AA preflop, in the big blind position,okay so i was guessing someone had a QQ cuz there was a pretty big raise about 4 times the BB in middle position, so naturally I reraise, what happens next? the player goes all in, I call, showdown time, what does he have?44, Im like wtf you went all in middle position, even reraised with a small pair, so as im enjoying my moment he hits a 4 on the river. Busted..... 2nd Case scenario, tourney time, 1500 stack, 15/30 blinds, this guy reraises a KK and goes all in against him, wtf does he have? 72 offsuit, he busts the KK with a two pair......,I had JJ preflop i folded it, so i mean for good online poker players, how do u play against such a player? what kind of tactics, and preflop play do u use against them?
How do you play poker with idiots? I just got done playing in a cash game, bought in for around $100 total. I did not feel comfortable playing anyone at the table. I think of myself as a solid player who doesnt play bs cards. I watched a table and a player called 1-8th of his chips with 2-4 suited then called an allin bet to make it like 60 more. Flop had a 4 and 1higher 1 lower with heart draw, they guy only had a pair of 4s and called an allin vs aq hearts. 4th street was a q and it was over. This is BAD POKER. i know that you dont just sit and play the best hands but at a table of 10 in ohio at any charity game its redic. I lost all my money with the best hand preflop 2 times, a k-5 unsuited raised my aq suited and i lost to 555 wtf is that, i dont even bother reraising pre cuz these donkeys call like its nothing. i then lost it all with 99 and a guy had ak, called my 26$ bet into a 34 pot like it was nothing. How can a good poker player win vs DONKEYS, even Phil Ivey would have had trouble winning. peace

Are Thursday nights after 11pm a good time to play poker at casinos? i asked a question a couple weeks ago about what time is best to play poker and several people told me after midnight on the weekends- i went last week, everyone at my table looked like theyd never played poker before and i won ~$130 in about 2 hours. are thursday nights good too, or is it mostly just weekends when the bad players are out late?

How to play poker at home without a dealer? To have poker night, what would be the ideal rules? Some friends of mine are thinking of starting a poker night, I was curious on how the rules would be idealy. If there was no dealer, would the shuffle be done by each player once? Would the raising and calling take place before and/or after changing cards? If we were to play with a 100 $ each per night, what would be the best limits to have a good fun game. I need some experieced helps, no answers just for points please. Thanks in advance.
What is the best casino to play poker at in Atlantic City? Me and my buddy are pretty solid poker players (amateur, but better than the tourists who only watch on TV), and we are going to visit Atlantic City on either Friday afternoon or Saturday during the day (maybe both).

Which casino has the best limit games, any tournaments on Friday night or Saturday morning, and finally, the best buffet (since we'll be getting lunch or dinner in AC at some point). Thanks!
